The lack of communication definitely can be a deal killer.....

Re: SonyStyle keeps his word!!!

Be careful about clearing him too soon. According to your post, it seems all you have is his word he shipped you something. Perhaps he didn't, perhaps its an empty package, perhaps its a defective item? Please keep us updated, but sonystyle is still as high risk as TG in my mind right now.

Your right there pseudo this does seem to have the characteristics of TG, fingers crossed it's not or the banned button will be hit!!

Re: SonyStyle keeps his word!!!

I live 2 doors down from lovinlasers so if he gets his laser today i know where i'm going to he hanging out for the evening!!! I told him not to post this until he actually got the laser, but I guess he didn't listen to me.

Re: SonyStyle keeps his word!!!

Good point there pseudo. I believe that sonystyle is good at heart and just had a really hard time shipping it and communication was bad because of computer problems but still it took way longer than it should of. Thnx everyone for opinions i will still keep everyone updated.

Re: SonyStyle keeps his word!!!

Here is the PM sent to me: (being made public for good reason IMO)
"His address is:
Micheal Hunter
3056 New Bern Cv.
Oviedo FL, 32765
just out of curiosity what are you going to do with his address???? "

What am I going to do with the address? I'm going to tell you that you just lots your goods.

As I've said before, avoid any trades with people in Oviedo FL. That's where TG is, SonyStyle acted much like TG, and I'm close enough to 100% sure you're dealing with the same scammer. I'm sorry, but your stuff is gone. You may want to look into pressing mail fraud charges if possible.

And everyone else: DONT SEND ANYTHING TO OVIEDO FL!

Man TommyGreen is relentless, he has resufaced several times already. I don't know if anyone remembers it, but he tried to scam WL out of a laser by saying that the postal van crashed, he asked that they send lasers to someone in Oviedo FL. He also stole my leadlight. :mad: Almsot makes me want to go to Oveido and kick some real ass..... :mad: :mad:

EDIT: From now on, any trades to Oviedo FL will have to use a middleman, no execptions. This stops now.

Yeah, I wish there was someone who could actually do something about this. I've talked to TG and followed him more than anyone else here I believe, and there's a lot of crap he's tried pulling in addition to this and the last time he ripped off forum people.

I have to admit, I followed him a little after he stole my leadlight, after was banned from LC. I saw him on other forums, and he was still scamming! This guy must be a professional scam artist, he was going after bigger things than lasers aswell...I am going to make a sticky about this now, new rules about trading effective immediatly. I can't let this happen on my watch.

Re: SonyStyle keeps his word!!!

Yep. I regret I didn't screw him over the time he let me onto his paypal account, but I didn't have the right setup at the time to do it without getting in deep shit myself. He had something in the $5-6k range though, and I doubt more than a minority of that was made legally.

Now - JUST for giggles - is there any possibility that it is not TG ? I know I'm reaching here, but - just asking.....
