I just want to let you guys know not to buy anything from "lolmann" if they ever get on here and try to post anything again. I payed them for solid motor mounts and never heard from them again. The bank sent me a statement saying it had been cashed. They're from Jefferson City, Tn. That was in July. It's just a shame that there is people like that on a great site like this. I have never had any trouble buying & selling anything before most are great people to deal with.

Thanks, Jeff Owens

Norris, check out zzzman, and volguy99, I think it's the same person. I think he's stone1 on BYBoys also, trying to sell his Ventura. This guy is starting to leave a trail of unhappy buyers.

We're already looking into that guy - looks like we have a bit of a mess to deal with concerning him and multiple login names.

I thought there was an option on vbulletin that you could block a user if they have more than one user name? By ISP addy?

Yes, you can hack the board to disallow multiple logins from the same IP, but that won't work, especially on a board this size. Many ISPs use dynamic IP addressing, and multiple legitimate users can have the same IP addresses. For a board this size, a simple IP check is not good enough in many cases, unfortunately.

He's "stone1" on BYB, but he originally had another name over there, I'm aware of this guy because he bought a Ventura out of New Jersey same color as mine. He was asking for a lot of set up advice. He's in east Tennessee, calls Cherokee Lake his home lake, I read somewhere he worked at Bass Pro Shop, possibly in Jefferson City, but may have lost that job. The Ventura is for sale on BYB for a stupid high price, I didn't bother to warn anybody, because nobody would pay the kind of money he's asking anyway.

I dealt with this guy back in Oct. He went by the name ZZZMan. His real name is Edward Payne. His home address back then was 2763 Turley Mill Road Morristown, 37814. He also used PO Box 27 Morristown Tn 37815. This was the number I had 865-475-2071 ask for Craig. And he worked here at the time http://www.farrismotor.com/en_US/ Now I know he lost his job but this should get you close. Have fun! I hate crooks! Ray

This is Craig the guy you are talking about… First I never on purpose meant to rip anyone off. The motor mounts I sold before I really had them<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
I got them off Ebay and never got them my self from the seller. I have been going round and round with him and they came today. He stated they were sent to<o:p></o:p>
<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">Canada</st1:country-region></st1:place> by mistake and that guy just sent them back to him. Pete will have them by the end of the week!(since I have them now to ship)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
As for the many user names. I don’t keep up with passwords to well… I was also known as Vols1963 but forgot that PW also, I sold a boat to 3 different people on here<o:p></o:p>
Who are very HAPPY…One was hydrostreamdave out of <st1:State w:st="on">Fla</st1:State> and speedahloic and some other guy from NC or SC his son works at Harley in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Myrtle Beach</st1:City></st1:place>. I also sold a pair of sunglasses on here or buyuboyz and he got um and is happy…just check!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
As for the guy with the gas tank, YES that was my fault I trusted someone to send it for me and he says he did…but the buyer says he didn’t. And I have not had the<o:p></o:p>
Extra $$$ just yet to refund him. That may seem hard to see but when you only bring home 189.00 a week…75.00 out of that cant be done. Yes I make more sometimes when we are selling but we haven’t been for about the last 5 weeks. The 189.00 is a draw. He will GET HIS $$$ back when I have it!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Angela is my wife the MO was made out in her name cause she has the bank account…she has nothing to do with this. Also the <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Moser Rd</st1:address></st1:Street> address was used<o:p></o:p>
Because at the time I was closing my PO box address and using my 2763 address…So I had Pete send the $$$ order to Moser Rd so it wouldn’t get sent back to him maybe because of the switch over of address. The <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Moser Rd</st1:address></st1:Street> is not my address and they have nothing to do with this.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
I also sold a projector on here he got the projector but says he didn’t get the screen…I sent the screen…I have no use for it without the projector. I don’t know of any place that is responsible for lost mail etc. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Pet will get his mounts by the end of the week…and the guy with the gas tank will get his money!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Again I am sorry for all this mix up.. I never meant to rip anyone off on purpose etc! I know it looks that way and that is my fault with the many names I have used here. but there are 4 buyers that got their stuff and are happy. There are 3 that are not happy.<o:p></o:p>

Looks like that's a start.

As far as the multiple screen names/password issue, there's an easy way to get past that: Type in your screen name with an incorrect password. It'll go immediately to a link with a "forgot your password" option. The system will send you a new password with the instructions on how to log in with it and change it to whatever you want.

And if thats the Bob Im thinking it is...he is "FOS" and I thought a friend!! for the past 20yrs.. he rebuilt the motor on the Ventura..ask him if he had a problem getting his $$$ for the work he done on the motor.

The answer would be NO!!!

I dont know where hes getting the..."good luck on gettin' it"..is coming from him...He got every penny i owed him + some! He has no right what so ever telling you that based based on "HIS" dealing with me...Because he always got his money!!!

Hey this if Jeff Owens (not Pete) who paid for the motor mounts which I paid for and the money order was cashed on Aug 7. If you had a problem, all you had to do was contact me and let me know and none of this would have been started. But when you cashed the money order and then never sent anything or made any contact with me and I couldn't contact you, what was I suppose to think??? I'd say in that situation you'd think the same thing I did. Just so there's no further mix up, here's my correct name and address.
Jeff Owens

My email is [email protected]
All it would have taken was some kind of contact from you to have prevented all this uproar. When I got the receipt that the money order was cashed and then it was over a month and I hadn't heard from you or gotten the mounts I thought posting on here was my only other alternative. Hopefully I'll get the mounts soon and I'll post on here so everyone will know that you sent them and it was all just a big misunderstanding due to lack of communication from you.
Thanks for posting to let us know where things stand.
