I want to do that but i can't. It's been more than 2 months since the last message.
And about the lost money, part of it is also my fault. I thought i could trust him, seeing he was always around here and responded very fast on send pm's. So when he asked me to send the money as a gift to save on alot of paypal costs, i did. Just like mr. Pure send it as a gift when he bought a shirt from me. Problem is Paypal doesn't do anything about that because it's a gift.
When dealing with well known members on here i assume they can be trusted to deliver what they sell.
So giving him the benifit of the doubt is a little hard. I can only say i hope he enjoyed spending my money. Still hoping he will be back but i think he will not be back unless he's in jail or in hospital for a few months.
RE: MIA - cracky - 22-08-09
I must say it would be very difficult to give him the benifit of the doubt after all this time, moral of the story, trust no-one and definately don't send money via paypal marked as a gift.............................
RE: MIA - mr.pure - 22-08-09
If he has disappeared with the money then I'm amazed.
He seemed like a sound bloke and can only assume something terrible has happened.
What goes around comes around though and if he has fucked people over then some day that shit will come back and bite him on the arse.
RE: MIA - Minty - 22-08-09
Weird about Dirty...especially after becoming specialist. It's hard for me to believe he screwed you over, as many people bought from him in the past and he delivered. How much money are you out Jan if you don't mind me asking?
RE: MIA - Aric47G - 23-08-09
i think we need to give dirty the benefit of the doubt and hope nothing bad happened. i have conducted several transactions with him, buying and selling, and never once had an issue with him. top notch fella and if you haven't received your package there is a damn good reason.

I hope you are right, but it's hard for me to believe. I'm out of about $200. For a pair of UP bbq's and the purple/yellow nylons (plus shipping). That he was specialist was also one of the reasons why i send the money as a gift.
Let's hope something happened (not for Dirty offcourse) so he couldn't ship them. But i'm close to giving up to ever receive them. I understand everybody wants to give him the benefit of the doubt, that was what i was thinking 2 weeks back. Only thing i can say is that he is ok if something bad happened and that he will ship them if he is able to again.
But if it was his plan to screw me over i almost hope something will happen.
We'll see how this will end. Surely hope it turns out to be ok. And if not i learned that i will never send the money as a gift again.
RE: MIA - Funke - 23-08-09
Hopefully things go your way Janvanderdam... I see you've been wanting the purple NYL's for a while.
Anyways, i haven't seen Stylz for a while. Where there's a whole load of people i haven't seen in a while but where not that active or they're much older members than me.
EDIT: just noticed Mr SS lurking about as well
haha
RE: MIA - Minty - 23-08-09
It's weird to me how Dirty's myspace is also gone...if he was in an accident, I wouldn't expect that to go down at the same time.
Bad luck jan...not only out the money but out on two rare pairs. It feels pretty bad to me also if he really did rip you off because I felt like we were a nice community here (the regulars anyway) and trustworthy...so this definitely makes me think twice about that as well.
btw how did dirty become a specialist? Just curious, I understand if it's secret or something. I was thinking maybe there is an extra thing people have to do to get it and become trusted?
RE: MIA - mr.pure - 23-08-09
He was put forward by a moderator as someone that was suitable and had shown dedication to the cause and been helpful to people in need.
The other specialists voted on it and it happened.
It's leaving a bad taste in my mouth if he has fucked Jan and Tors over.
I can't understand why he'd bother replying to your email after the first few weeks of going missing if he'd already decided to rip you off though.
Can someone PM me his real name and I do my level best to find out if and what has happened to him.
RE: MIA - cracky - 23-08-09
I would love to know, hope all is well, and it all turns out well in the end for all concerned
RE: MIA - Samo - 23-08-09
I can't imagine Dirty would do a number on another member, I know last time he was about he was going through some tough times...
Hope it all gets sorted Jan, and that Dirty is ok.
RE: MIA - janvanderdam - 23-08-09
I don't know if torsten got his money back through paypal, i hope he did.
Just hoping this work out.
And it's not even about the money. I thought i finally got the purple/yellow nylons in 11 us. I didn't buy the ones from an australian website because i would receive them from Dirty. Now i wish i did buy them.
So the search for the nylons continues. If anyone has them in 11us let me know.
RE: MIA - mr.pure - 23-08-09
Find it hard to believe he'd fuck this place and the members off for the sake of $300 or so.
He probably over spent on Superstars amongst other things then the credit card company came calling and he couldn't make the payments so decided to pay up but didn't have the money for postage and by the time the payment had made it's way to his account it was swallowed up by an automatic payment to reduce his overdraft.
Either that or he's dead !
Or in a coma !
