Just bringing this to the forefront and to have record posted, reason being this is his 3rd forum return via a different name, at least 2 previous being tee135 & tonedase ... real name Alain P Sterk...

He never fulfilled my order and never fully refunded the money after millions of nice guy posts that he was going to...

    I remember having a problem with tee135.

    Thanks for the head up ,, There are probably many others who have been scammed on BST who have not spoken up
    Can you believe it ..some on BST still list items for sale they don't have possession. nor own
    Scammers attracted to BST by the ease to take advantage of honest, trusting members

    Appreciate the info. The days of trusting all forum members is long gone... not as bad as ebay, but caution advised.

    complaint with D.Willis for your no proof, and there is not any becaue I have never taking advantage of anybody, so please remove your comment or else I will have to proceed with further activity

    I think I have seen that real name somewhere......trying to remember where....
    rcc maybe? some other alt from before maybe?

    I can't recall right now, but with a name like that, there can't be too many of them.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I told him to comment here if he wanted to clear things up:

    I have responded long ago and will not go over all this, since you are new, u were not a member then
    pls do not get involved unless you have proof, and you do not
    any more and I guess I will persue this with Mr Willis

    Has anyone figured out how to delete PMs from the new software? Even NGC's new software has ALL of your old PMs even though you thought they were forever.

    Not so sure about your eBay statement. I suspect, percentage wise, they may even be greater on the BST, since there is no seller or buyer protection and members are still gullible enough to use PPG.

    He probably is too embarrassed, or he doesn't the money, or can't afford to pay up, and make it straight . Shame :#

    This is his third time on the boards using a different name. So...second chances are long gone. It's sad, but I had several positive dealings with Alain several years ago.

    If the mail was involved he committed mail fraud and the postal service does not like this, If the post office it is still fraud and I would go to the entity that was used to send your money . If you paid him with a c card call them and dispute the transaction as fraud is involved. They can reverse transactions within a certain time period.

    I thought I'd ask since he's still on the BST looking to buy, pretty much just wanted to bump the thread to
    keep the sellers and buyers aware. A permanent thread at the top of the page would be helpful with listing
    names of thieves not to deal with.

    Excellent idea ..many more scammed on BST then let out in open .. keep the known ones be in spotlight
    Shame some trusting ,honest members are being scammed out of sometimes, Hundreds of dollars.
