Clad sorry you have the wrong person if your asking me for a new detector I dont have that kind of money any time it seams i get ready to buy a new one something goes wrong and i have to use the money on something else. I will let you all know whats happening with the jobs I hope to have one soon. For the time being im doing odd jobs just to keep the money flowing. Ive got rent and other thing to take care of and my umemployment should kick in this week.

SilverDreams · June 22, 2005 9:04AM

Anyone gotten their winnings yet? It's been over a week and I haven't received the trilobite.

*#$%& Postal Service!

joeyuk · June 22, 2005 6:57PM

Slow this way also. Even for PM responces.

kidd · June 23, 2005 7:43AM

still waiting on mine and he only lives about 200 miles away.

kidd · June 26, 2005 4:00AM

Anyone get their stuff yet?

goldrush00013 · June 26, 2005 4:06AM

<< Anyone get their stuff yet? >>

Nope.
I could've walked there and back at least twice by now being 135 miles away.

joeyuk · June 28, 2005 6:53PM

Still waiting. No contact.

MadMarty · June 28, 2005 10:03PM

Here is your answer guys, be patient. Having a limited income can be stressful and even the smallest expenses such as postage can be a burden.

SilverDreams · June 29, 2005 1:22AM

Byron emailed me and said that someone tried to break into the post office and burn it down so everything coming and going is delayed. It's now been over two weeks and I haven't seen anything...

Caricon · June 29, 2005 1:48AM

Wow, I live just minutes from Ft. Wayne IN. I haven't heard about that news story yet. Maybe something
that didn't hit the media because they are trying to find the person that did it. Wonder if the person burned
up anyones mail?

kidd · June 29, 2005 10:56AM

Nothing here yet.

Caricon · July 5, 2005 10:00PM

Hey, you get your stuff yet? I was just wondering what that little trilobite looked like. I can't remember what else
he was selling. I didn't get a chance to pick anything up since I had just come back from vacation and didn't have
any funds at the time.

SilverDreams · July 6, 2005 1:44AM

I haven't gotten it yet. He says he mailed it off on June 14th and today is July 6th. This is getting pretty ridiculous.

kidd · July 6, 2005 4:33AM

Nothing here either.

joeyuk · July 6, 2005 11:00PM

I havn't received mine either. He hasn't been on the site since June 21st. I threw him some money
to help him out the coins were only a token thank you. I'm sure he has alot goin on more important
then this place so whatever comes of this so be it. It is behind me now. I wish him good luck. Joe

I didn't order anything, but I'm very curious as to why he has not been on since June 21st. He has always been on almost every day before. To tell you the truth, I don't believe any of that story of his, that someone tried to burn the post office down. (I believe SilverDreams that he sent the e-mail, Just not it's content.) Hope you guys get your stuff.

SilverDreams · July 14, 2005 5:27PM

Oh yeah, the story seems very fishy. It's now been over a month and I still haven't gotten anything yet. This is what Bryon sent me in an email on June 23rd:

Yes did there are som eproblems at the posdt office I dropped them off to. Believe it or not somebody broke into it and started a fire so everything is majorly delayed coming and going fro that office. In hind sight I shgould have taken it to the main post office. Give a few days it will show up.

Byron

I know someone mentioned to be patient and that slow income makes it hard to ship stuff, but he actually said he shipped the stuff on June 14th and then he emails me this story so it makes me wonder what's up.

goose3 · July 15, 2005 4:13AM

if you enter the information from his profile......you can easily locate him on a yahoo search and a phone number as well!

CoinOnTheCob · July 15, 2005 4:17AM

There you go ...

MadMarty · July 15, 2005 5:45AM

Write of off as STIFFED™

Lamborghini518 · July 16, 2005 7:01AM

<<Oh yeah, the story seems very fishy.>> Your telling me. Besides, don,t you think that would be in a Indiana newspaper (I'm from New York) or something anyway. I know a few of you are from Indiana, have you heard anything lately (or should I say a month ago)? Besides, He said that he shiped them on June 14th. I've heard of postal delays, but usually, everything is out of the post office in about 3 days or less, not 9. How much did you guys pay for these things anyway? I think you guys were conned, but I hope I'm wrong.

CoinOnTheCob · July 16, 2005 7:43AM

Why don’t you ask him where the stuff is? He is in here every day. Oh, wait, he hasn’t been in since the post office exploded.

BRYON, YOU HAVE SOME ‘SPLAINEN TO DO.

Lamborghini518 · July 17, 2005 7:45AM

<<Yes did there are som eproblems at the posdt office I dropped them off to.

Look at his spelling, it can mean one of 3 things.
1. he was very nervous when he wrote it (an indication that he stiffed you guys)
2. He has terrible spelling and grammer skills ( maybe not as he spells beter when he posts new messages and replys to them, his spelling is much better.)
3. Time to call the men in the white jackets to take him to the Happy Hotel.

Look at the facts too, he is unemployed. He also said he was selling them because of that. Now I'm sure all of us are sure that a couple hundred or thousand dollars can't do much exept maybe pay his grocery bill for a few months. So he might sell the same ones on other forums and do the same thing. I'm also curious as to why he didn't resort to selling them on Ebay instead. Think about it, he'll have to deal with paypal, and he'll be able to con more people on forums, simply because the number of forums is greater than the number of online aution websites.
Hope you guy's recieve your trilobites soon!

Purple73 · July 17, 2005 8:01AM

What happened here?

PURPLE!

Purple73 · July 17, 2005 8:08AM

ahhhhhhh I see.......He held an auction. Man , for being here 2 years you would think he wouldn't be that way.

PURPLE!

SilverDreams · July 17, 2005 12:39PM

Maybe he was putting up a good front and biding his time for the big con...

. I only paid $2.50 for my trilobite plus $1 for s&h. I know some items he had were $40-$60.

lordmarcovan · July 17, 2005 12:51PM

I bid on something but never heard back from him, so I didn't send him any money.

Lamborghini518 · July 21, 2005 6:14AM

<>

Good! Cons don't deserve money.

SilverDreams · July 23, 2005 6:32AM

I just checked my Paypal account and my transaction with Byron is no longer listed. Looks like he took his money and ran.

CoinOnTheCob · July 23, 2005 6:45AM

I think that is too bad. He seemed like a pretty nice guy (Which is probably why some of you bid on his items) who was interested in the hobby. It was exhaustive to read his posts, sometimes, because he is very nearly illiterate. But he was a nice fellow.
Dennis

Lamborghini518 · July 31, 2005 3:00AM

Does anybody know if he has friends or family that post on any of these forums. That way we can truely find out what happened?

millennium · July 31, 2005 4:26AM

<< It was exhaustive to read his posts, sometimes, because he is very nearly illiterate >>

And yet.......Sure glad I didn't engage in an commerce with him.

CoinOnTheCob · July 31, 2005 5:22AM

millennium,
I'm not sure if you are agreeing with me or think I was a little harsh on him.
Dennis

joeyuk · July 31, 2005 11:07AM

We've exchanged a few friendly e-mails and he said it would be
resolved by Aug. 22.

millennium · July 31, 2005 12:27PM

<< I'm not sure if you are agreeing with me or think I was a little harsh on him. >>

I was a little amused at the comment....and was wondering if it was his way to pull everyone in to trust him...I never really knew how to take him. He seemed pretty smart on some things and then out of left field on others.

CoinOnTheCob · August 1, 2005 1:30AM

<< I'm not sure if you are agreeing with me or think I was a little harsh on him. >>

Oh. I had second thoughts about writing that sentence. I was afraid that others would pick up on it and really start baggin’ on him. And, I was afraid that if Bryon comes back, after everyone has kissed and made up, he would be upset that I had written it. I’m sure he still looks in here from time to time, he just doesn’t log in.
Dennis

goose3 · August 1, 2005 10:16AM

<< We've exchanged a few friendly e-mails and he said it would be

???????????????????

Then why doesn't he log into here and explain himself to the numerous people that sent him money for items?

I must admit, I have no dog in this fight, BUT I do keep tabs on threads like these for future reference on who NOT to deal with.

Lamborghini518 · August 2, 2005 6:08AM

Anyone here have a Ft. Wayne phone book or something, so you can give him a call and see what's up.
You can tell better that he realy didn't send them by the sound of his voice. I'm not saying that you can't see that through e-mail, but a phone conversation is easier.

Hope you guys get your stuff!

edited to add

Caricon · August 2, 2005 8:40AM

I have a Ft. Wayne phone book. Since I live just outside there. It's one of the main phone books
that I get when the new ones come out.

I do too, this is sad, when this happens with someone you trust, someone who was one of us. I hope and pray it is a mistake.

Scavenger · August 2, 2005 10:46AM

Wow, that guy is a real piece of work - For a conman to setup a group of people over a period of time by gaining their trust through emails and conversations, and then making the big score at the end for a few thousand is an age old scam. Still, Just a common thief.

But, unless I'm missing something here this guy stole from his friends for what? Maybe a hundred bucks?

goose3 · August 2, 2005 11:12AM

You guys don't need a phone book.

Just go to Yahoo......click on people search and enter the info in his profile.

You WILL get his phone number and address.

CoinOnTheCob · August 3, 2005 2:09AM

Scavenger,
I don’t think Bryon pulled off anything so premeditated. I think it was a case of a young guy trying to come up with some money. A young guy lacking in follow through, maybe, that spent the money before he got the things mailed off.

I have no idea who bought what or for how much. I do know that some of the things he was peddling were rocks. He may have miscalculated the shipping costs.

hey Just to let you all know
