pumbaa 0 Posted July 15, 2009 WARNING TO ALL CUSTOMERS OF METH!!!!!!! I purchased a grill grom him over a month ago and it has not yet arrived. He claims that the label was damaged and that it was returned to him. He then claims to have re-posted it, but alas.... it has still not yet arrived! I have sent him PM's (which he as read as they have gone from my outbox) but he claims he cannot reply to them at his work, one would have thought he could reply to them at home or elsewhere but this seems not to be the case. I have also repeatedly contacted him within his sale threads, but he rarely, if ever replies. I am losing all faith that the item will ever arrive. Shaun60 is also awaiting items which have not yet arrived and has been given the same excuses. Has anyone here recieved anything they paid for from meth? So this is a warning for anyone who is thinking of buying anything from meth......... YOU PROBABLY WONT GET IT!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louis 0 Posted July 28, 2009 Warning to everyone about a bad purchaser...Raddo_Tom. I had an early 7 slat grille up for sale at the end of March this year, Raddo_Tom said he would buy it from me. Seemed eager enough to pay me, I made it clear I wouldn't send the item until any funds had been cleared. He seemed to understand. By the middle of May he had claimed to have sent various cheques, bank transfers and even private messages on here that mysteriously never reached me! Various messages had been sent back and forth over the 1 ad a half month period before I finally lost my patience. I warned him that if I had not had funds within a week of the message the grille would go back up for sale, anyway I've left it until today partly due to wanting to see if a cheque did ever arrive and partly because I had lost all faith with the whole system. I would recommend that if Raddo_Tom claims he will buy anything from you, either he is hoping you will post the parts when he hasn't paid you, or he just enjoys wasting peoples time and p***ing them off!

vwdeviant 0 Posted October 7, 2009 Hate to do this... but... Corradofuze and Lloyd1965... both said 100% they'd take the interior I have for sale and then tell me they're on holiday for a week and then come back and just ignore my PM's asking when they will pick up... :censored: Don't like being messed about... If either of you feel this is unfair please get in Contact! :wave: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wullie 1 Posted November 9, 2009 I’m a bit reluctant to do this but I’m totally pi**ed of with raddo_tom from this forum but this has gone on far too long. On July 16th raddo_tom got in touch with me saying he had two Sebring Centre caps for sale. We agreed a price of £25 posted ands I duly sent him a Postal Order. Being a trusting soul I didn’t get it crossed as in my dealings with other members of the forum had moved forward without problem. In following correspondence the PO did not arrive and I sent another, this time crossed and recorded delivery. This one did arrive and he said he was posting them the following day. By now it was the end of August. To cut a long story short after another few PM’s to him He stopped answering. I sent him a final PM on the 3rd of this month asking for some sort of reply and offering to send stamps to cover the cost of postage but to no avail, the same silence. The PM’s are being read as they have gone from my outbox and after a post trying to track him down VR6replied, and tried to contact him. Still silence. Many thanks to VR6 for trying to assist. I am now close to £60 out of pocket (adding PO commission and postage) which I can ill afford as I’m on a pension, and to add insult to injury the post office advised me that the original Postal Order had been cashed in Tom’s home town. Coincidence? He is apparently in business with another member on here with a similar username breaking Corrado’s and selling the parts. May require a bit of caution as well. Avoid the man like the plague. Unless he can convince me differently he is a total rip off merchant. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwdeviant 0 Posted November 9, 2009 Who's the other guy Wullie? OH and from memory Rado-Tom's also on ED38 as well so you could track him that way... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted November 9, 2009 Ridiculous - and it sounds like you've been more than patient. A think an explanation and an apology is URGENTLY overdue.

VR6 0 Posted November 9, 2009 Rado_tom has just been permanently banned from using the site as he would prefer to ignore our enquiries rather than trying to assist Wullie. Wullie, I know that might not be very helpful if you still need to contact him but it does sound like he's around on other forums and I think you have other contact info for him. Or we could email him via his registered address if you want to make any further contact? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim, I've already tried that course of action and he's ignored my PM and has since been online so I don't see any other alternative than to remove his access altogether. As I said above, I think Wullie has resigned himself to the fact that this guy is quite clearly a tool, to put bluntly! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wullie 1 Posted November 9, 2009 His partner is indeed raddo_rob, I didn't want to name him directly in case I broke some rule but all you clever people guessed it anyway and I suppose he's tarred with the same brush until he can prove otherwise. I suppose I'll just have to put it down to experience and continue the search for my centre caps. They all seem to be attached to wheels and located at the other end of the country. Many thanks to all for your support. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wullie 1 Posted November 9, 2009 What the heck, let's call a spade a spade Perhaps if raddo_rob reads this he could ask his "Business Partner" to send them, or as they are "Business Partners", send them himself. If giving his address breaks forum rules I apologise and feel free to remove it, but the more I think oabout it the more annoyed I get. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
