    Ripped off by RTOC member through Ebay

    First post!

    Sent Carl Hyde(Carlos)(7188_hyde on Ebay) from this forum payment through an Ebay auction over a week ago.He has kept the money,hasn't sent the parts and has relisted the parts i paid for!!!Nice guy,ripping off a fellow Renault enthusiast.

    Re: Ripped off by RTOC member through Ebay

    repliying to message guys

    no he as not contacted me the payment was put through paypal directly
    so i overlooked having relisted parts ,.
    so i am sending him a email for us to sort this problem out
    i am looking through my post office receipts because im sure i sent these out
    but not sure till i look .
    i will gladly reissue parts if he needs them still or issue a refund .
    i dont normally get bad feedback like this .
    as regards the grey 5 that was sold to some one down derby as rolling shell last year i think it was the guy who just sold a raider on here with black alloys his mate wrote it off
    dave turbo


    hope this helps chris
    thanks carl

    Maybe i've got the wrong Carl Hyde from Wolverhampton here,paypal address c.hyde2@sky.com,paid him by Paypal on the 16th of June at 19.45pm,payment status in Paypal 'completed',money taken from my bank account!Paypal Transaction ID 4DL543695H715460R.Maybe im missing something here?,apart from the goods ofcourse!Then to finish things off he sends me 'another' payment request yesterday for the money???Hands up who thinks i should pay again?He's relisted the parts i bought and he's got my money,once bitten twice thick.

    Maybe the club should look into this. He could be 100% innocent and its just some miss understandings...

    See what the club detectives find. ''miiiiiiiiiiiiiilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllller''

    Wouldn't that have been the best thing to do first, before starting a thread saying you've been ripped off by an rtoc'er?

    wait for the verdict from paypal though.. ive had all sorts of strange things happen with paypal with the pending payments etc.. and some of it there genuinly is no reason for. The joys of paypal. Ask carlos for his number and deal with it over the phone, sometimes its a lot easier to deal that way and you get a better feel for how genuine somebody is.

    Re: Ripped off by RTOC member through Ebay

    rather than slate someone why not try and send him a message either on here or through e bay not paypal before you jump to conclusions ?

    i have dealt with carl for years and he is a credit to the renault world really helpfull and friendly he certainly doesnt rip people off and who cares if he is buying things and selling for a profit ? if someones happy to sell there things for a price its up to whoever to choose what they do with them its nothing illegal

    maybe this is why bob from cgb doesnt have any interest in the club because there is always going to be someone to complain
    i will guarantee you either receive your parts or your money back one way or another nice and easy

    1)Can't remember giving someone a slating,i heard nothing from him since the 16th of June despite contacting him through Ebay twice before 'jumping to conclusions'
    2)Im so sorry people like me are responsible for Bob from CGB no longer having interest in the club,i can only apologise.

    3)I've just received a refund so the payment must have got through to him at some point.
