Beware of KD1R and VE2XB

Post by sparkchaser »

Over the past month I have been lied to, and otherwise misled into thinking I had sold an item to Mr. Shaer, VE2XB. Since he was in Canada he had Mr. Stetson, KD1R handling the sale, monies, and shipping to avoid Duty costs going into Canada. Each week Mr Shaer would email me and tell me Mr. Stetson was a good guy and he would get the money sent to me. Each week I again would answer, Ok, no problem, I will wait until the end of the week. Of course, the money never came, but the promises were there anytime I would email and ask about the payment. So since I didn’t ship in advance, Thank God, I am not out anything other than the sale to the other buyers that wanted my gear several weeks ago.
So I warn you all, do not get caught in their little play time, by agreeing to do business with either of these guys.
