Need Help To Find HuliganRS: aka; Rusty Smolov

I purchased an expensive coin[$275] from this man over a month ago and he doesn`t answer any communications at all and no coin. Have I been taken and the money stolen? Does any one know of him? Suggestions will be appreciated. I think a warning about his character is now in order or should I just right out say he stole my money? Any and all help appreciated. His address is Rusty Smolov, 1440 N. Mainstone Dr.,Vernon Hills, Il 60061. Regards, Chas.

    Did you try to get has phone number from E-bay? Vernon Hills is about a 20 minute drive from here. But I would try all means in getting in touch with the seller. Was it a E-Bay deal??
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I VERY seriously doubt it. From my dealings with him, he struck me as a great guy and very honest. I think that there may be some real crisis at hand if you haven't heard from him for a month.

    His profile shows he last visited here on Feb. 14th.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

  • I did the deal here on the board 1-13-3. Thanks to all and let me have your HELP AND COMMENTS. Chas.

  • PM sent - Rusty may be an airhead sometimes - but he's a good guy - I'm sure he'll be in touch with you.

    I've also done a deal or two with Rusty, and everything went off without a hitch. I hope your deal goes through.
