Few of the ebay ratings said they got the police involved. It might be worth giving them a try. Especially if this guy has a track record of this.

69 air cab · 01-24-2004, 10:33 AM

He must be on drugs. Who would have ever thought a blazer would be drug $. Contact the town police........based on the responses in EBAY they will know him and may be able to twist his arm for you.
Suggest: everyone go on the EBAY site and everyone send him a nasty gram. I'm going to send this....."You dog. If you would every ship the Blazer hatch to the guy in WA, your stuff might be worth bidding on. You should be banned from EBAY and the world"

nu2-72 · 01-24-2004, 10:42 AM

I have a hard time dealing with anyone that has the --- to write in their profile that they are an ex-cop and a better BS'r.
Several on here have listed, "rip-off artist", "Scammer" and other odd stuff. They are mostly all gone now but I read profiles and that tells me something.
This guy was bad news.
We have some newbies to the stie (edit- meant site. LOL) that are going back and bringing up some very old posts. One was Teeitups "I got some parts in". Randy is a very standup guy. I cannot say enough about this guy. He has done so much for me. But come on. That post was from August. PM people to see if they still have items that are that old.
Where am I heading? Boytoy's posts are also being brought up. Is he back on the board doing this to snag some new meat or are unsuspecting newbies looking for trouble?
Perhaps it is time to delete Boytoy and Texparts and a few others in order to protect the new folks.
Just an idea.

meathead95 · 01-24-2004, 05:32 PM

you know i wonder if he goes by coloradochevydreams on ebay now because i saw a blazer top on their for sale once and i emailed the guy about the tub it was sitting on and he said it was rust free and if i bought the hatch he would sell me the tub for 600 and deliver it for another 600 and i said i would let him know so i saw the post by board a member from nc (joerocks) and he said he would haul dtuff back so i emailed the guy a couple times about the tub again so i could set it up but now he wont reply. i bet it is the same dude

bouncytruck · 01-24-2004, 06:52 PM

meathead, I'd watch out for that guy. He was suppose to have a two blazers that he was parting out. Both were suppose to have nice rear hatches and he was going to ship me the best of the two.

**old Rusty C10** · 01-24-2004, 08:27 PM

in the interest of bein a PITA i decided to check out the coloradychevy character .. apparently they dont have him on Ebay but if ya find any others that are him let me know

bouncytruck · 01-24-2004, 08:37 PM

I just filed a report with the IFCC (www.IFCCFBI.gov). I called the police in Colorado Springs and they said I need to contact my local police department because I am the victim. The local police told me to report it to the web site above. If anyone else has had any issues with him at all, please report it to the web site above.

69 air cab · 01-24-2004, 09:32 PM

I second on NU2's statement about Teeitup........great business man. GO for it Bouncytruck............I feel a linching coming

Smooth68 · 01-24-2004, 09:46 PM

I had a deal with him and know of many others who have, all who got ripped off - If he is selling something, its either 1 of 2 things - a scam or a piece of crap. Steer clear of this guy.

Blue Beard · 01-24-2004, 11:19 PM

Tried to get a address for you with his phone number with no luck........

Contact ebay on the situation....sometimes they will give the informaion you want....

bouncytruck · 01-25-2004, 12:41 AM

Smooth68 - Tell everyone you know to file the report on www.IFCCFBI.gov about him. They do convict! He is obviously using the web for fraud and theft. He needs to go down. I'd like to see him deleted from more than just this site, like maybe from his rights as a citizen. I think a small cell with a big guy making him his own personal "boytoy" would serve him justice.

I think it's him. His eBay user is actually chevydreams72 and his email is coloradochevydreams@yahoo.com. I saw some of his stuff listed and noted the location. I asked him where in Colorado and he said Colorado Springs and goes by Jim

If this is someone else I apologize, and will delete the post, just seems curious to me.

veedublu · 01-25-2004, 02:54 AM

Just please don't assume that every 67-72 enthusiast from Colorado Springs is bad news, some of us are good guys!

John

bouncytruck · 01-25-2004, 03:17 AM

I agree, most people who are dealing parts are reputable - just guys like the rest of us who enjoy these trucks, or what ever parts they deal. It is sad that this guy is making a lot of people look bad. I will think twice from now on before buying anything online.

nu2-72 · 01-25-2004, 11:13 AM

veedublu is not just a good guy, he is a great guy. I have purchased from John and almost a few times. There was a truck in Co. that Boytoy had for sale. I replied to the thread that I might be interested in it. John contacted me and offered to look it over before I sent any money. What a great offer and person. I owe him.

llama · 01-25-2004, 11:29 AM

was in C.S. last summer and went to look at a rust free box he had. it was rusted thru and the bondo was falling off of it. he said that my idea of rust free and his were not the same. NO SH*T. stay away from him and good luck!!

bouncytruck · 01-25-2004, 03:52 PM

He just sent me an e-mail threatening everyone who has responded to this thread. He said, "Tell them to pack a lunch, bandaid's too! You could take this hatch back with you, after I shove it up your ass."

Castiron9 · 01-25-2004, 04:56 PM

Hell..............I think it's time maybe to just let the loser be and get on with it.................All his bad dealing's will catch up with him some day..............

That is the same one that I thought was him when I saw it a few weeks ago.

Yeah, like Federal charges for interstate wire fraud, but he'd know that since he supposed to be a cop.

That is probably why he is an EX-COP, if he ever was one, other than in his own mind

walker · 01-25-2004, 08:08 PM

If he sent an e-mail threatening you and all who are on the thread I just wanted to get my name on here too. Nobody likes a good threat more than me.:p

krue · 01-25-2004, 08:50 PM

Yeah me too. Talk is cheap, what a d!ckhead!

rocky2 · 01-25-2004, 09:59 PM

my lunch is packed and I can get band aids on the way I wonder just how bad he would be if I showed up at his door.
