A few members have already written about their experiences with NSX Prime member Smoore. Unfortunately, I didn’t know this on 6/2 when inquired about an Alpine S634 CD changer he was selling for $170. He said he’d send it out as soon as the check cleared.

My check cleared on 6/13. I waited a week. . . I waited another week. . . I sent another message and he said it had already been sent. I waited another week. . . I finally received it on 7/5.

I opened the box and found out that there was no CD magazine for the CD changer. After a few more emails going back and forth, he said he “found” an extra CD magazine, and said he’d send it out right away. I waited a week. . . I waited another week . . . Then he said it had already been sent. I waited another week. . . After a couple more emails he said he’d overnight it to me. I waited a week. . . I sent another message telling him that unless I received the CD magazine in the next few days, I would be sending it back to him. Since I got no response, I paid $11.33, and I sent it back to him.

On 8/5, he signed for the CD changer. I waited a week . . . On 8/13 I sent him a reminder that he still had my money. He sent me back a message asking if I wanted him to send the CD changer and the CD magazine. Dude! This is what you were supposed to do over two months ago!

I waited a week. . . I waited another week. . . Now, after almost 3 months, I’ve lost my patience. Today, I filed a report with the FBI Internet Fraud Division and the Post Office Mail Fraud Division for my original $170 plus the $11.33 I spent shipping the unit back to him.
