I did not want to do this as drich290195 seems to be a good guy, he has good feedback on here and seems to be a guy that can be trusted, but I was mistaken.
A while back I was selling my black Nokia 8800. drich290195 offered me his SE 990i as a trade which I accepted. We agreed that we would send both phones at the same time, we agreed when to do this and I went off to the post office with my phone. The 8800 arrived with him next day but the 990 did not. I contacted him he said that he had not gotten round to sending it and his sister would send it that day. His sister apparently sent the phone but not recorded or special delivery and surprise surprise it goes missing.
I am a reasonable guy so I left it for a while, I went on holiday expecting the phone to be waiting for me when I got home. I contacted him before I went on holiday and said that if the phone had not arrived by the time I got home I would either want payment for the 8800 or the phone back, he agreed and apologized.
I get home and the phone has not arrived, I contact him asking for my money or phone, I get no reply. I leave it another day and try again. No reply, I am starting to get angry at this point, I told him I would start this thread, if he did not at least let me know what is going on, he did not so here I am with no 990, no 8800 and no cash.
So if drich290195 offers you a phone or cash I would tell him where to go.
drich290195 if you are reading this and there is a legitimate reason for you not getting in touch let me know and we can set the record straight.

I've met up with drich twice and he's sound as a pound mate.
There must be a serious reason for this. He hasn't been on MSN for over a month (checked msn+). I know he was joining the army soon. Maybe he got called up or something 
Like i say mate, there must be a proper reason for this.

I unfortunatly also had/have a dispute with drich290195 over a phone which he claims Royal Mail lost. Alright it was only a 7110, but it was the reason I traded. When it didn't turn up he claimed it was sent and royal mail had lost it, he said he would claim the compensation and send this - guess what, I'm still waiting.
I offered to forget this amount as part of a deal for his w810i recently - then he disappeared.

This is every buyers nightmare really, 99% of the people who trade on here are genuine, but if your dealing with an unknown, i always ask for lots of info, addresses, tel numbers etc, and i contact on MSN guys who have previously traded with them for their opinion.

If he's joining the Army, he'll be having a security check done currently. If you were to go to the Police with a complaint and they were to take it up it will show up on his clearance and could raise a few awkward questions for him. I'm sure that he wouldn't want this and may come out of the woodwork to sort you out. My complaint wouldn't carry as much weight as it was only an old 7110, but yours must be worth well over £100?
Just an idea

Come on theres no need for that. You people dont know whats happened, maybe the worst possible has.... Stop slagging the guy off.
Like i've said before, i know him personally. I've text him asking where he is etc lets just see if we get a reply.

OP - Obviously you have his address as you sent the phone, so are you able to pay him a visit?

I am still sure something has happened, I do have his address but I don't want it to come to me driving up, I would like to know if he does reply to your text.

you folks are good, i vote for calling the Police.
unless your related, some good mate or his girlfriend you really should avoid defending people you dont know, as i dont know any of the people involved here i'll just put it out there....2 people on Esato, same experience and the guy had the balls to insist on the other party posting the item 1st?...folks, it doesnt sound good at all. so i vote you call the Police and worry about feeling bad about it later.....and anyone defending this chap, a good samaritan is just as guilty as the person doing the crime when they're found out to be fraudulent, so watch who you stick you neck out for and stop trying to deter people from making sensible choices as from what i've read you just sound like your in on it....replies will tell the whole truth, absent responses will speak fo themselves.
hope you folks get your phones or money back. |
