THIS HAS BEEN PAID... Thanks Dweb


Wandering what to do here? A fellow D weber who I Put an engine in his truck and upon pickup did not have the money for the job.. He has made 2 payment against the
Job but currently owes about 700 to me.. He text me About 10 days ago and
Promised to pay the balance by last Tuesday. Since I have not heard from him and have left 3 un answered voice mails And about 10 text messages.. Yes I realize I should have not released the car before payment.. But have known the person for about 3 years and been on many offroad trips with him . The way I do business is with a handshake . I would not care if he didn't have the money And at least communicated something to me.. I guess as the saying goes... In god we trust all others pay cash...

got burned too many times trusting people. next time, doesnt matter who it is, half upon pick up. or full payment if amount is manageable.

still no excuse on why no communication. we live in a world full of technology and you can always find a way on letting someone know something. and i dont believe in the phrase "too/so busy" because they have to take a shyt sometime right... they can call you while that is being preformed. just saying.

Vegas!
Just another reason why I got out of wrenching on these trucks for a living. People are shitbags.

I gave Dom over $1000.00 CAD for a set of steel wheels for my DII The price included taxes, shipping, lugs, centers, etc. After 7 months passed and he stopped responding to me I phoned the Ontario Police, BBB, Ontario Consumer Affairs and Newfoundland Consumer Affairs (my Province). I called and emailed him every day for weeks. The police went to his "business" several times on my behalf and the other organizations contacted him. Eventually he cracked, we compromised and he sent me a set of 5 Genuine LR alloy 16's. Not exactly what I wanted. But by that time I was happy to get anything. He would not issue me a refund.

Note: When he finally did send the 5 alloy wheels, I had to pay the shipping charges when they arrived! I phoned the Sargent in charge of the investigation and he had Perodeau reverse the shipping fee or face additional fraud charges. Mother Fucker!
