I was going to wait just in case he reads all this finally came to his senses but I very much doubt he will.
It is a user called Lexus_Technician.
He hasn't been online on Esato since the dodgy trade (right at the end of October), and another Esato user has been done by this guy.
I'm tempted to post his email address here and let everyone here on Esato let him have it!!!
He won't swindle me out of £40 and think he can get away with it scot free. I'm not sure if the police can do much about this guy, and to be honest I'm not sure if it's worth it anyway for a relatively small sum of money.

i was wondering wat happened to him . i was gonna buy a T610 of him before he disperred. Well sammyboy goodluck in getting ur money back you should show him that we on esato dont take that shit from people like that.Also 40 pounds isnt that much but could probaly buy u a decent second hand phone ie T610 could have been a great xmas present for someone.
Anyways goodluck |

I think the person that bought that T610 paid some money and then never recieved the phone - so it's a good job you didn't buy it off him!

I don't think so, he had no references in that 'good traders' thread. I'm just wondering if I can post a 'negative' in there for this guy!
I've just thought - I could give him a negative on his Nochex account (how I paid him) too!

He was not on the Trusted Sellers List.
Take a look, the link is in my sig
I've also been giving thought on how to incorporate an 'Untrusted' section in there.
I thought maybe if I could do bad refs in red text? Or do u think a seperate section is better?

You could perhaps do both - red text in the main thead, and perhaps a separate one.
If you were only going to do one or the other though, I'd say go for the red text idea - the 'good traders' thread gets updated frequently and looked at frequently, more chance of the fraudster's bad record been seen by more people.
EDIT: I've just looked at the PMs I've still got, and it was actually the BEGINNING of October that 'trade' was done - I didn't realise it was that long ago! I should perhaps have done something about this sooner.

Obviously I can't make the posts red but I think it's possible to do the ref. under their name in the list red although I haven't successful written anything red yet!
By seperate section I actually meant within the same thread but as a seperate list under the Trusted one

@ Sammy_boy
Were you able to use any of the advice I gave you previously? I hope you reported the matter to the police. Imo it is terrible that such a person should be able to cause disruption and inconvenience to another person's life. Hope you get it all sorted out  I really think that you should report the matter to the police. As previously mentioned, simply give them all the info you have on the matter. In monetary terms, the transaction might not seem very significant, however I still think you should follow it up.
@everyone
Regarding the 'bad traders' issue, initially, it sounds like a really good idea to have a list of 'dishonourable' traders on esato. I have personal experience of this regarding a transaction made through the Market section of esato. However, the wording of such a thread would have to be very careful. If anyone is able to create a viable thread, I would certainly support it.

Hmmm, I forgot about this thread.
Anyway, I was the perspn who bought the T610 off of
Lexus_Technician and received nothing.
Lucky for me I would only pay him half up front and half on delivery.
Anyway, if you are reading this Lexus_Technician may I just say you are thieving scum and what goes around comes around.

Thanks for the support! 
Last time I posted here, he emailed me feigning moral outrage, so far I haven't had a peep out of him.
If you are reading this Simon, Lexus Technician or whatever your name is, I offer you one last chance. I will edit my posts here, ONLY if I get a full refund, with no strings attached and without prejudice. No messing about, no excuses, no 'i'll do it next week' or any other crap, just the money back in my Nochex account. I've run out of patience, thus some my postings here! This has been going on since the beginning of October, time for a resolution.
Mind you, at least I made you work for your £40, all those excuses you made up and emails that you sent - I bet it wasn't the easiest 40 quid you've had out of someone, was it?!
