His name on the SoundDomain forum was GMC Truck Man. He got kicked off the forum about a week or two ago, i think for mouthing off to a moderator. this transpired midway through a deal i was working with him to sell two sets of Boston Pro60s and a Boston G5 12" sub. he contacted me at DIYMobileAudio under the name JGarrett and we continued talks.
based on his decent positive feedback, 1,500+ posts and lengthy membership on the SoundDomain forum, i sent out the products before he sent money. money was pending a ups tracking number. it was a really dumb decision, and i will not do it this way again...regardless, i don't want this to be a $1000 lesson well learned.
i sent out the tracking number on Thanksgiving right after the package shipped. he told me that morning (before i shipped) that he was going away over the course of the holiday but would be back the following tuesday. well its been more than 2 weeks since i have spoken to this individual.
if anyone personally knows this individual then that is best. If anyone has dealt with them in the past then that is great as well. If anybody knows specifically how to get in touch with them then that is awesome. something needs to start moving very soon as i am letting go of my optimism more and more each day.
As i dig further, whitepages shows that there is a human in Winter Garden, FL named J. Garrett, who lives about 5 minutes down the road from the address in Winter Garden to which i shipped...that address belonging to a Mr. Jeffrey Dodds. in this individual's defense, he could have had me send the equipment to a friend's house because he was going away, or maybe because he is young enough that he did not want his parents to see that he just dropped a grand on car audio stuff. I, and probably many other younger members have done this before.
The shitty thing is that the phone number for the address that i shipped to is disconnected and the other number associated with the name J. Garrett seems to belong to an old woman. I have saved all correspondence, except what got deleted at SoundDomain when he got booted (which pisses me off since they were my PMs too, dammit!!). I plan on notifying the local police and giving them all the information i have. Obviously anything that any of you know will benefit me tremendously as well.
Merry ****ing Christmas, i need that money. there is a lot banking on these funds. any information is appreciated. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
