Is there any way to keep a list of scam artists?

Would it be worthwhile to try?

I Keep 2 Microsoft Word Documents.
One, for people NOT to buy from.
And one for Great people I have bought from, or that there have been specific threads on this board about how "so and so was great to do buiseness with". I especially put them on the list when the thread is long with folks backing up how "so and so is a great guy".
Fortunatly the "good folks" document is longer.

first of all...screw him..and for the nice guy Bo..your business is only as strong as your partner(s) Since Bo has not disavowed the scum bag James, there has to be more to the arraingment than we know. I had a worthless good for nothing cousin I used to cover for all the time..did more harm then good.. I do appreciate the heads up..with the sum bag(s) in question, but as far as giving advice or feeling sorry for Bo....it is HIS partner and I am sure that he knows whats going on.

not really sure what the james/bo connection is, and i havent dealt with james, but i have bo and can vouch for him... i bought the bed on my 4x4 from him, and it was in great shape... he described it perfectly, and there wasnt any rust at all on it.. i did find some bondo, but by the age of the primer covering it, you could tell it had been there for years... according to crews he was even planning on sending the frame the bed was on, when all i wanted was the bed

edit:forgot to mention, the bondo is over dents, not rust

I've dealt with James I even took a 9 1/2 trip down there to get good parts but when I got there they weren't as good as he said. Now more and more keeps coming out in the open about James that I didn't know. He doesn't describe his stuff very well thats for sure. Now Bo I WOULD DEAL WITH AGAIN, he was a member of this board LONG before James came along and he seen an opportunity to get into a business venture and I think it cost him some bucks to do it. He just didn't have any luck with his partner, sometimes partnership is not good. I feel for BO because he's caught now from the money issue and from what I seen James is the one everybody is upset with not BO!!!!

At the risk of getting into the muddied water here, I cannot say anything negative about BO...I do not know the extent of his deal with this James clown, but I will tell you BO is a stand up guy.....
When I picked up Blue_71's bed from him, he had it sitting on a rolling chassis....problem being, all I had was my dually...no trailer..BO went to torchin' off bed bolts without even a hint of a complaint..on a Sunday...after I think I missed my "target" time by a few hours....( late of course )....I feel sorry for BO to be involved.....He's a good guy...

I have sent messages to Bo as well as James to resolve a matter and have not heard from either. That alone tells me something. I am afraid that I must scratch them both from my list.

And where is James in all this non-sense?
are you aware that he might have feelings too,
? don'g go putting someone down until you have walked a mile in their shoes, therefore you will be a mile away from them by the time you put them down, and you will be wearing their shoes

I dont think we should use the abused child defense. I remember when I was in a field artillery unit the National Guard after I got out of the army and we were out on maneuvers once . A bunch of us drunks slipped away one night after taps and went down to the local bar to get sloppy drunk. One of the guys had a few too many beers and started telling us how great it was to be ( in his best drunk slur ) hanging out with a bunch of guys after all those years of sexual abuse from his uncle. After the dead silence that followed the laughter started . And it went on for a few minutes . When I was finally able to catch my breath I made sure to tell him to NEVER tell anyone that again .... especially a bunch of drunk soldiers .

Point is .. Leave the poor guy alone. His Uncle made him do it


I'm a bad man!
