Uh... what? Stealing outright is not wrong? Do you have mental problems? Is there something wrong in your head?

Look at the buyer's post history -- it looks like he has done a couple transactions with other members with no problems. An agreement is useless until $$ is received but OP still sent the item.

Anyway -- I agree it's overall an dishonest act on the buyer's end, but the fault is OP's IMO

OP, use the address he gave you to ship him half a dozen boxes of a giant dildos. It will make it easier to go fuck himself. Start a gofundme, we can pitch in

Just because he did a few transactions then scammed someone doesn't make this situation ok. QUITE typical forum scammer behavior.

the fault is with the scammer. Verbal/written agreement happened and then one decided to break that agreement/contract. Would I have waited for payment? Sure - that doesn't make this situation his "fault".

I don't agree with what the OP did, and he will certainly learn from this mishap. Absolutely sucks that his kindness went abused but you live and you learn right?

Now let's hope he gets his money / product back

You literally have his name and address. How do people think this is going to end up when they scam people like this? Do they think they can just get away with this? Someone someday is going to show up at that address and resolve it by some means. Even if it isn't his address nor his name, the residents must know him and will give him up should they be motivated. Scammers are smart enough to scam but too stupid to be legitimately successful. They are literally losers.

Find him on social media and message his contacts telling them what a douche he is. Start with his employer.

I think legally you might still be able to send him the invoice certified mail, and then sue in small claims court. Royal pain, but doable. If I didn't show up at the door I'd hire a local lawyer to add pressure.

I would at least hope he gives you the chance to at least ship the wheels back to you. You’ll be out shipping both ways but at least the saga will kinda be over.

Damn, what a bummer. He will probably just make a new account and scam again.... I was hoping there would be some bimmerpost vigilante justice. I hope karma gets this scumbag.

OP, your a good dude and handling this better than most. After reading your post, it felt like a life lesson my father would've given me, "Take the high road son, it's not worth your time."
