Don't Sell/Buy to/from Black96max, ripped me off!!

Black96max (his real name is Jay Reis, from Edison, NJ) ripped me off for a Stillen Y-Pipe. I sent him the pipe, he sent me nothing. He was supposed to send me $150 and his stock pipe. He sent nothing. It has been a month now. I have sent e-mails, no response. Later his story changed, he told me he was selling his car and would return the Stillen y-pipe to me. I see from his profile that he is in fact selling his car, with MY Stillen y-pipe on it!!! So I say down with Mr. Jay Reis. He should be booted off the board. He is obviously not here for the betterment of the Maxima community. So I tell you all so you will not also be deceived by him.

In defense of black96max, he had been great about responding to emails for a long time when i was thinking about BUYING from him, but he never asked for any $ or anything. I have over 1600 posts on my old forum (a Jeep one) and I helped track down "deadbeats" all of the time. 90% of the time it was simple miscomunication. After a few weeks of not getting the proper address to ship a part TO someone, I finally realized that I was having email problems with another (jeep only) email address. Up until then, to others on the forum, it looked like I had taken this fellow's $185 and run with it, so stuff can happen. I am not defending black96max personally, or condemning him, but I know that all of his emails to me stopped a good while ago, so I am inclined to believe him.

Black96max-
Just so that you know, your name and address are public record. As it stood when he posted it, it looked like he had a legit reason to gripe. My 2 cents...

It has been 1 month. I still have the receipt from when I mailed the pipe, May 23. You have not responded to the recent e-mails that I sent. I have waited a month. I never got the money you supposedly sent, nor have I received a a pipe in return as was agreed to. If I actually do ever receive anything from you I will be happy to retract my previous statements, but until I made a big issue out of this in front of the whole org, it didn't look like you were making much of an effort to track me down to get me my pipe. All you had to do was respond to my e-mail, or look up the thread to find me on the org. You did neither, so I really have to question your intent to return my pipe. Doesn't seem like you were trying very hard at all. Even better all you had to do was put it in the mail, a few weeks ago like you were supposed to. Unfortunately it had to come to this for me to get you to act.

While I am at it, in your thread where you are selling your car you list the y-pipe as being on the car. So either you have no intention of sending it back to me OR you are simply misleading the perspective buyers of your vehicle by telling them you have a y-pipe on there when you really don't. So either you are lying to me, or to the people who are interested in your car.

And, even if you were away for two weeks. You live in NJ, I live in Mass. I sent the pipe to you priority mail, it took 2-3 days. Why then is it taking weeks for you to send the pipe back? Did you pay someone to walk the pipe back up to Mass.?

Your story simply does not add up.

This is very true. It's nice to think you can trust someone every now and then, but apparently I chose the wrong person to trust. My bad.

first of all i sent the pipe yesterday....i had no computer where i was located to find your info and i never go on the org ne more and haven't changed my sig. im not trying to sell it with a ypipe because everyone who has asked me i told them its not on and is not mine. for all those saying to come after me...that is petty bs and no one should get involved until they know the story...ne one can come on here with a story and you people get all excited? just to let you people know...he will have his pipe soon and i never had or looked for trouble and i dont expect any thank you

ps : this goes to show how people need to get involved in **** that dont involve them

No offense, but I am not from the Brook and I don't really think it would be worth it for me to go to that extreme over a used y-pipe.

Besides, Jay has promised to return my pipe now, so hopefully this will situation will be rectified shortly. And as I said before, should the pipe be returned, even if it did take a month, I have assured him that I will clear his name. Fair is fair.

I understand his anger, death or not you could of still dropped him a quick message saying you had a death in the family and you will mail him his S#1T when you can. Even if you lost his E mail, you could of came on the Org and left some kind of message. Just do the right thing and all will be forgotten.

To All Who read This Thread

Today I received my Y-pipe, the same Stillen one that I sent him, from Jay (Black96Max). I would like to clear his name of any wrongdoing. Perhaps if he had kept me abreast of the goings on, I would not have had to make the negative post that I made. After a month of receiving nothing in return I felt it was the correct thing to do. In the end, Jay proved to be a man of his word and returned my pipe. I appreciate him finally following through and would like to let you all know that he is a trustworthy individual, despite my earlier doubts. As is the case in so many situations in life, a lack of communication caused an unfortunate situation. I hate to lecture, but a recent survery of major corporations yielded "interpersonal communication" as the most important quality that a leader must posess to be successful, just something for everyone to think about. Thanx Jay for at leat sending my pipe back.

Ok now that all is settled may I throw in my $.02? O goodie...

First of all I know Jay personally. A good kid, a little slow sometimes (sorry Jay) but a def good guy.

As far as posting in the sig with the Y pipe...well he probably put it in there before he even recieved it. It is the way he is, nothing at all wrong with that. He infact NEVER got to install it.

I know he did have some family issues and was away for a bit, so that would explain the timely delay, a legitimate reason? I would say so. Lack of communication on his part? Yes maybe.

As far as his computer being down....well I will def confirm that one as I need to type EVERYTHING in IMs to him like three F***ing times !!! Just to recieve...."what was that last one my comp froze"

To wrap up...as far as him saying hell do something he always ends up coming trough. BTW Jay wanna cut my grass again....??
