Default Might be geting scammed by a member in Houston

graphite_g35. I sent a MO to purchase a set of G35 wheels about a week ago. He no longer responds to my PM's but I can see that he gets on the boards everyday. What can I do?

Honestly, a week is more than enough time, the g35 dude can atleast send a response, or call back. I think you should get some guys to pay him a visit, or find out the situation. This is the reason I am so hesistant to buy from private sellers.

considering there's only one transaction and he was the buyer....nope
