Basically, I was the dumb ass who bought his ad: http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=157658
and sent him $350 for the parts via paypal at the same time I paid the other jerk $70 for the SS conversion lines who also screwed me. At first realslow answers my phone and told me he shipped it, but duno why I've not got it. Then after a week, told me item returned to him b/c he wrote the address wrong. Then he called me back and assures me that he's not trying to screw me over as he's seen my other "I got fucked" thread and willing to send me a refund.
Being greedy and wanting a cheap deal, I told him I can wait another week and he said he can have the parts shipped that week. 2 weeks later, no info, no tracking #.
Now after 1.5 month, he's not responding to my PM nor phone calls. I can't dispute w/ Paypal since I paid him via bank transfer, which was how I got screw the other time. (yay)
His name is Dustin, phone is (910) 264 - 6247 from Wilmington North Carolina, 28428

Not getting anything back. Used my friend's phone to call him, he didn't pick up first, then he called back, my friend answered the call, asked him about the $ and parts, to which real slow responded: oh, I'm busy right now, I'll call you back.
Never did. This is the last time I'm buying stuff off anyone on Zilvia unless a vendor.
To Dustin: I believe in Karma. Hope you get 2x the shit you dealt me in return.

Maybe a road trip to NC to see what's going on? You aren't too far are you?
His last post was just about 2 weeks ago, so if he hasn't answered you in 1.5 months, there's a problem.
Yea, try not to pay via bank transfer via paypal :(.

^ It maybe better then money order but if the other person pulls his money out then you are still sol. When using paypal, pay with a credit card. They are more likley to help out in a situation like this.

Lets get the facts straight
1. I told you i go to school 17 hours and work 40+ hours/week and i would ship it back out when i got a chance.
yes i told you i would ship it out friday of whenever i talked to you i did not get the chance to.
2. i offered a refund in full plus i will include whatever downpayment you gave the body shop(in reason)
3. You either call when i'm at work or 2am in the morning when i am sleeping.
4. i am going to aplogize for my poor communication and ability to ship these items out in a timely matter. this is my fault and all mine i am a man and will accept responbility for my actions. i am not a scammer and not here to steal your money.
SO Jed call me back at 10 pm eastern time and i will answer and we will get something worked out

To Realslow:
I'm east coast and I've been calling you durning the day, which you did not answer due to school/work, that I understand. The latest I've called is probably 12am (2-3 times due to frustration), since I too work in the morning.
I've left phone messages with contact number as well as PM in here asking you for updates and even OFFERED additional $50 to cover the return cost of the shipping error YOU made. An offer I got no response to. I've seen your 'last activity' time in here, and I'm pretty sure you get PM notifications that you ignore or fail to receive, I do not know.
I would NOT be posting a scammer thread in here had you responded to me either on phone or PM or even email.
So all the BS aside, I would LOVE to either:
1. Get a refund in FULL, including the paypal cost. (The offer to pay off the deposit I made to the body shop of $200, that's up to you)
2. Ship the rear bumper AND hood within the next 7 (SEVEN) days and give me a trackingg #, as a man of my words, I'll paypal you additional $50 (offered in PM) to cover about half of the re-ship fee you said, after I receive the items and in the conditions you described.
I'd like to have this resolved soon. Will call you 10pm EST.

First off....Realslow....WHY ARE YOU POSTING IN YOUR OWN REVIEW THREAD???? It is not allowed. Second, why have you not made good on this deal? Let me just say, if this is NOT resolved within a week, you will be banned from the marketplace and possibly zilvia.
Then il wait a week to buy his greddy intake manifold.

heres an idea... dont try to sell shit across country if you're not able to make the time to go to the post office and ship it out, find someone locally to pick your shit up and stop wasting people's time.

realslow is not a scammer.. get of his nuts... ive personally done business with him many times, so have all of my nissan friends... infact, around the eastcoast, realslow is the man to get your parts from...
not many people on this site knows what its like to have a full time job of buying/selling parts, and going to college... if he was soo horrible at it, then he would have never acheived the level of success that he already has
Jed_Atreides
12-10-2007, 05:54 PM
Edit:
Talked with him on the phone and he asked for extension on shipping out parts or refund after 2 weeks at max. So I guess I'll just have to wait.
S13SilviaGirl: Please don't ban him just yet on my behalf, sent you a PM about this and hope to settle this before end of year.
I think I'm stupid letting this drag on yet again, but he sounded sincere on the phone, so o well. I'm a sucker.

I've dealt with Realslow many times, and so have countless members of a local board we're both members on...to put it mildly, he's a VERY busy guy, but a scammer? Hell no.... And whats the deal with not being able to post in your own review thread? Thats BS too imo....and not just because i've dealt with him before, but for anyone....a person has every right to face their accusers in our legal system....what do internet forums think their rules are better? laff.... /end rant
Realslow will take care of you man (op)
And i'm about to buy a set of injectors from him without the slightest hesitation...thought i should mention that.
S13SilviaGirl
12-14-2007, 01:01 PM
To all defending him....Tell him to make good on this deal or he will be banned. You all say to "put an end to scammers" well we are. If he, or anyone that has a bad review, is your friend...put a foot in their ass and have them make good on their deals. We are not tollerating this kind of BS any more. The OP has been MORE than patient with realslow.
G-spec~This is a PRIVATE FORUM. Don't like the rules set by our admin feel free to leave. There are reasons for the rules, and if one reads they will find those reasons.
This is in the top of the section stickied for all to see:
The reviewee SHOULD NOT be posting in their thread. We are having three major issues with this at the moment:
Reviewees bumping their review thread by replying to posts. Reviewees discussing particulars about a sale. And reviewees arguing the basis of a bad review.
So.. stop. DO_NOT post in any thread reviewing you or your business.

So you are saying that this is his job? If so then he should be paying an advertisers fee...another reason that he could be banned.

Except I did send payment through Paypal, as explained in my post.
He sent me a text today, saying he shipped out the parts. I'm guessing it's by freight since he didn't provide me with a tracking number. So let's see where this goes after a week. Unless it takes longer , never sent nor received items via freight before.
Count down to a happy holiday T-minus 7 days, everyone.

he does it on the side... he has many projects... so its not his source of income... just a way to get rid of all of his un wanted parts...
he is a nissan FREAK, and sells stuff for sooo cheap... he just sold a PFC l jetro for 550... that is crazy

Rear bumper arrived yesterday, but no sign of the hood. Text messaged him and also called him, no response. He paypaled me $100 a while back which I am to refund after I get the bumper AND then hood.
Gave me only 1 tracking and it seems to be only for the bumper.
Guess it's another waiting game till he responds. Gonna give it another week before I raise my whine meter.
So far, $250 for a rear bumper that I don't want. Hood was the item I crave. :\

:fawk2: I give up. Here's the summary of the story: I paid realslow $350 for a damaged CF hood and rear bumper back in Sept of 07. He never shipped the parts and refused to respond neither in email, phone calls, nor PM. I posted a scam thread in here, he responded and so did 1 admin who backed me up. So FINALLY he responds and claims how sorry he is and he has a conscience too as a human being and will send me $100 and ship out the parts and then I refund him the $100.
Early January 08, I got the bumper, no hood. I contacted realslow and the admin who promised to help me, nothing from realslow, and I'm still waiting on the admin(s)
So in the end, I paid $250 for a bumper I didn't really want (damaged CF hood was my crave)
So here he is, bragging about his new rides paid partially by me. W00t.

wow im glad hes banned and im sorry to those of you who got scammed. I know alot of people did have smooth transactions with him but just because you do 300 good sales doesnt mean you have the right to screw even 1 person over. IMHO he had more then enought time to settle this, even if you are very busy if you sell something to someone as soon as the payment is sent its your responsiblity to come thru on your end. I hope those who got screwed can get their money back
