Re: Callout of Old&Busted

How do people get away with doing this? Isn't there some sort of fraud law or something to punish or fine people that do this and pursue legal action etc?


I can not sit still. I have been tested for A.D.D. and A.D.H.D. and have neither. I don't need coffee, I just need a B.M.X. or surfboard to consistently ride and I'll be happy. smile

He didn't just get for sale restricted because of communication problems alone.

We are looking at more than just that.

I do. I've watched what and how he has listed items since he has started. Some items seemed legit and others didn't. He's been poor on communication, and caught in lies. The mods are not out to get him. They are just trying to cover our butts. Old&Busted still has a chance to prove himself.

Re: Callout of Old&Busted

Tried to dib a pedal lot from this guy. BMXjunky and Ol'Phart beat me to it. I thought the $20 price tag was a type-o. I knew it was too good to be true. Never even noticed he didn't have any feedback. Sucks for you guys that paid, but if you don't get your parts, hopefully, you will get your money back.

Anytime the pictures look like they were taken in the back seat of a GTO I get suspicious. Seems a strange setting for bike part photos. neutral

Thermal count is rising, In perpetual writhing. The primordial ooze, And the sanity they lose. Awakened in the morning, To more air pollution warnings. Still we sleepwalk off to work, While our nervous systems jerk. Pretending not to notice, How history had forebode us. With the green house in effect, Our environment was wrecked. Now, I can only laugh, As I read our epitaph. We end our lives as moles, In the dark of DAWN PATROL

Re: Callout of Old&Busted

Ok guys i bought a lot of stuff from this guy and didnt have any issues what so ever. However i was at his home in person. The guy seemed cool I dont think he is trying to scam however out of what i read he may just have an issue following through with the shipping. however I can assure you that i seen those wheels in his house along with that stem that he listed. I also picked up the star bars and then put them down so i know for a fact that they were there as well. i can vouch that the items he has listed are there but that is all I can vouch for..

So I dont know how my lst post was perceived but the items are there I just had an issue with my name being mentioned and the parts being described as NOS when the ones i seen wernt

Re: Callout of Old&Busted

Hats off to museum admin/mods for doing this RIGHT. Issues reported, move the guy to "restricted". Sort it out later. WAY better than the old way of waiting till someone officially got ripped, and then trying to figure it out and then eventually moving person to restricted.


Whenever someone says, "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart," all I hear is, "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart."

I think that you have have some issues reading what i typed.. I can only vouch that the parts were at his house because  i was there and seen them personally. The guy seemed cool but cant vouch for anything other than seeing the parts...  So take it how you want...
