    Need Advice (can't get a hold of seller)

    Hello everyone,

    I need some advice on a deal I made and information (scammer or not) about a member by the name of gshocknut, real name is Adam.

    I recently did a deal with gshocknut. He sold me a G-shock Krink piece for $140. I sent the money via paypal and he said he'll ship it the next day via USPS. After a couple of days he sent me a tracking number. I check the status of the package and it showed that it was still in process in his area, Florida. I send him a message asking him why the package was not being updated on its location. He said the shipping label was not printed entirely, so it might slow down the status. After a couple days of seeing no change in the status of the package, I contacted Adam again. He said he would contact the post office and have them track down the package. I also call the post office to try and figure out the situation, but the post office said there was no way of tracking the package. After two weeks of waiting I messaged Adam to see if he had any new information on the watches location. So far no response back. I check the tracking number and it is the same exact status from two weeks ago. I call USPS again and I asked for the status of my package. They asked for all my information and said my local post office would call me with in 24hrs to confirm where the package is located. After an hour I immediately got a phone call from my post office and they said the package was not being shipped to my town in California, it was being shipped to Missouri. I tried to contact Adam about the item being shipped to the wrong location, but his inbox is full and can't receive any more messages.

    Has anyone here done business with Adam?
    I hope he is not a scammer.

    As of right now, I don't know what to do, since I can't contact Adam.
    Advices would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    Dayton

    Good day Dayton

    I am afraid that yes, Adam (gshocknut) is a scammer. He's a real piece of work. Read my posting here... Help! How to go about a shady transaction...

    I was unlucky. I thought I was going to do a pretty decent trade with him, but he stalled for two months and made countless excuses.
