If you scroll up you will see that Alan aka srimonogramming has made two comments on this. He has evidently tried to help but doesn't have the correct info to help you.

sorry for your loss already, but according to these posts admin just got the correct username YESTERDAY? so give them some time, they have real businesses to run as well. I just don't see the reason to attack them when it hasn't been correct info for 24 hours yet.

Kind of like doing your due diligence when buying equipment in the first place?

This site is not like Ebay where Ebay has some liability to protect buyers and sellers. Here you are on your own and have to take the risk, no different than craigs list or a classified out of the news paper. The admins here arre not going to be able to provide much of anything useful to you, it seems you probably know more about this fellow than this site does. What the admin can do is red flag the guy and keep an eye open for them in case they try to scam again. Also the admin can probably get their IP and their actual location so if in the future a new user looks fishy they can compare IP's.

Something I thought about since this thread grew legs is why not offer X amount of money to a local screen printer in the area of the equipment for sale, ask them to make an unbiased assessment of the equipment. They would have nothing to gain or lose except for a few extra bucks in their pocket.

I just checked my private messages inbox going back to January and you've never sent me anything. Did you send it via email or private message through this forum? I don't know who you've sent pm's to but it sure wasn't me. And "jennder" joined the site on September 2 and was last on here on Oct. 1 and has zero posts. I can't tell you much more than that really. I know where he was when he signed up but with proxy servers and what not, a criminal would be pretty damn dumb to leave an IP trail like that.

How did Jennder contact you, through this site or private email?

Just a thought, when asking for pictures of proof of shipping, a picture of some guy standing next to a crate is a red flag, require a picture of the actual product inside the crate itself. As someone said the picture is a clear fake and photoshopped.

I went on the contact us button last Friday and Saturday when I found out to see if u had any info just thought if I used that feature on the site someone would get back to me not on here enough to know who the admin is... I logged in with my user name and explained what happen asked if you had any info on him too see if it would help tracking this criminal down... So can u tell me were the ip was from any info would help... They have the person on video at walmart picking up the cash not same I'd used as one I posted on here.. We tracked his cell phone to the Turlock area via towers do we have some good leads have my local and San Jose police on it have a Sopenia in for the cell phone records and of info. He obviously is a pro at this and this is his full time job pretty sad not even worried about the money so much as seeing this ******* get caught...
