This is true, I feel for him too. I believe that it would be hard to not open the box to see. THe opportunity to get something for a good deal does make for risk. That is the Vegas principle. If Joshua is doing ok financially, he has no worries. I am behind him and this will get resolved. I am trying to have this resolved without law enforcement 1st, then we will visit more permanent options.

but a marathon to get him an X30?

comeon, there were warning lights all over the place, he knew the risk... but guess what? there were an opportunity to profit *save a few bucks* and he took it.

Many of us pay a premium for reliable delivery of service... and some like to save a few bucks and inhenrit some risk...

so while I do feel bad about him getting ripped off, the fact is, he didn't engage in this deal to prove to all of us what an honest guy that other dude is... he engaged in the deal because it was a good deal, dispite all the red flags the forums could possibly raise, and he lost out...

I rather donate my money to poor starving kids than to some guy who got ripped off on an non essential item because he wanted to save a few bucks.

sniff.
