Myers9019 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 I recently bought some rota grids off Garry Smith he's done nothing but mess me about.I payed for the wheels via PayPal and didn't receive them. He says he sent them so I then asked for tracking number and proof of delivery he couldn't provide any. He just made excuse after excuse. I then put a post on the Facebook page Toyota starlet buy me sell me to see if anyone else had any trouble with him.Well to my surprise he ripped off about 9 other guys. STAY CLEAR! Quote
Whitenoize Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Well surprise surprise same guy that tried to make out I ripped him off over an ecu just shows who the scammer is when he's got about 10 people saying his ripped them off and the only negative feedback I've ever had was from him.. hope you manage to get your money back mate get a claim in in PayPal Edited February 1, 2016 by Whitenoize Quote
Myers9019 Posted February 2, 2016 Author Posted February 2, 2016 Total waste of space mate he finds it funny to rip people off! Seems like he gets an enjoyment out of it! Quote
Whitenoize Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Aye mate he's a knob have a look in the negative feedback section mate under my user name and you'll see the shit that went on with us it sucks that you got scammed but in my case it shows what kinda person he is Quote
morgey Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 As of yesterday he has been banned, along with his other account, hopefully everyone whos had dealing with him gets there money back! Quote
akyakapotter Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I was lucky to get my parts then was only an ICV i paid on the 5/12/15 it turned up 21/12/15 afrer telling him i had put in a claim with paypal. i was being told ballshit about it being sent with his couir company and it being in the local hub down my end which was all lies. Was sent by royal mail next day only reason i can think it was sent was because it was his wifes paypal not his. Quote
Myers9019 Posted February 2, 2016 Author Posted February 2, 2016 He's telling me the same mate. He's saying he sent it with Menzies parcels via his company account total bullshit. He can't provide a tracking number or a delevery conformation I sent the money to his PayPal account so I'm guessing I won't get anything! I've not put a claim in hopefully I'll get a refund. Also thanks for banning him he's needs to be stopped. Quote
akyakapotter Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 that is who he told me he used but it was sent via royal mail youll get your money back mate Quote
diller Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Does any of you not know who he is??? Fill a car and knock round to his house.......thats shocking guys that he's doing this to people and getting away with it to be honest. Quote
Myers9019 Posted February 2, 2016 Author Posted February 2, 2016 Yes mate I rang PayPal if he can't prove to them they've been delivered then they'll refund me The guys an idiot if he dint live 400 miles away from me I'd be going to pay him a visit. Quote
Whitenoize Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I learned my lesson from this guy and always keep my recipes in a record book now as it would have solved a lot of issues still think he was trying to have my pants down tbh Quote

Rich-k Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Fucking wankers, why is there so many scammers on the starlet scene? I've never seen anything like it wankers. Quote
patman Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 There just little weasels thinking it's never gonna catch up with them, thinking there big fish behind a pc but in real life they have no pond to swim in 👍🏻 Quote
StuDoc 72 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Fucking wankers, why is there so many scammers on the starlet scene? I've never seen anything like it wankers. Because people can afford to buy them when they are in the age group of 18-21 when you still think you are invincible then realise they cant afford to run them so break them and try to bump a few people in the process. Think they can hide behind an internet profile and get away with it. Quote
patman Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Also noticed stu a lot of these youngsters insuring them as non turbos too Quote
richglanzav Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 yeh i see it so often, 'insured as a 1.3 so cheap insurance' no you fucking stupid doughnut it means u just paying for shit cus if you crash youre fucked. Quote
blob212 Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) ​Bought a rear strut off someone on here a couple of weeks ago called Garry smith, he's started ignoring my messages asking for the tracking information he promised me. He's under the name Trackgt. Just read this thread, really worried I've been ripped off now, its a shame because this will be the first time in many years of starlet ownership. Mostly everyone I've dealt with have been very genuine. Edited May 23, 2016 by blob212 Quote
morgey Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 Can you keep us up to date, he is a very new member and seems to be selling through the wanted section a lot. Someone has had there stuff from him as they've left him positive feedback so hopefully its just taking its time. Quote
