E-Bay Gyro Scam

[millerman]

as much as i dont condone scamming , why would you want a 401 gyro surley gyro's have come on a little since the 401 get a spartan they are great

[MartinH]

As old as it is, I feel the 401 is a fantastic gyro and incredibly easy for beginners to set up and use.

..because there are better gyros, which are cheaper

Defo agree with this and when I read the bit that says the RRP is £122 or what ever I thought he must be joking, until I see on FL site they are indeed £112.

The Spartans are far superior to these and also very simple to set up, even for a beginner.

You can get a 2nd hand Spartan, GY520, CSM blah, etc etc for less or the same money

I think it is time to post his name up.

I asked him earlier through ebay where he gets them from to be able to supply them so cheap, and if they cone with a futaba factory seal on it, funny enough, the chap has no balls and hasn't replied

I suspect that he has seen how big a hornets nest he has angered

Or perhaps he's busy typing abusive PM's to us all?

guess it wont be long till mine arrives

[nightstalker]

This is the first pm i got off him

He wont send pics of his crashed heli, or pics of the gyro on a newspaper to prove the date and place.

They are real.

I ship thousands at a time.

You can meet me if you want, i'm a ----- am I ?

Then the next pm was

He talks bollox, it came in the FUTABA case, 3 sticky pads, 1 plastic screwdriver, not a hk401b with a Futaba shell.

And If you want, I fly a p28Trojan, join me on msn anytime and i'll meet up when i'm in your neck of the woods.

I'm not as Conman.

Then next one

As I said, my Gyro came in a FUTABA case, 3 sticky pads, 1 plastic screwdriver and padded inside.

not some scam job that he talked about, I have more coming, i'll contact you, if you have skype you can pick one out the lot,i'll open it in front of you all.

last email from him was

Ive posted umpteen times on that thread and nothing appears.

So in your eyes the truth is nasty.

I can tell i'm amongst the adenoid brigade in here, I bet you have a beard.

Now no one said it was hk401b so think hes shot him self in the foot there and whats having a beard got to do with it???

User name BoomBoomArghhh

Exactly what i was thinking

[fred kaz]

Thanks for the picture. He keeps asking me for a picture of a crashed heli, but this gyro was taken from a perfectly good heli.

I was swapping it and in the deal i was able to keep my own gyro. While it was off I remembered what a fellow club member told me and I thought I would check it out.

This bloke also keeps insisting that i have been e-mailing he over the past few weeks and accused me of having more than one e-bay account, and having some sort of scam running myself. I have admited to him that our household as two paypal accounts one being mine and one being my partners (Helen) which was used to pay for this.

[Craig33]

Wow, this thread is a fair read. I cant believe there is a nut in your gyro. Im curious as to which part of the system was removed to make way for it and how it flew without it.

Really hope you get your money back for this.

[xygax]

Never seen an internal hexagonal antivirbration mount that has been exposed to oxidisation before.....

Probably and Esky one thats the only ones i have seen with teh sensors mounted on that skinny vertical board.

And just for information I do have a beard (and a low maintaince face)

There you go again, calling me a SCAMMER, Ive had over 700 transaction on ebay and as you know some people are never happy, ive had 3 negative feedbacks, the last one from a guy in cyprus because his goods didn't arrive in a week...unbelievable.

Stuart.

[nightstalker]

Thats funny because hes feedback total is 582 not over 700 and has 15 negative feedbacks.
Fred i do hope you get your money back and get him banned from ebay and here
