AI4BT - Another deal gone bad

Post by James »

Hello all. I just want to alert any amateurs out there to beware of ai4bt, Ronnie Byrd. He posted an add on another swap site a while back stating he had an RCI 2950 for sale. I responded to him, offering a Kenwood 2m rig in trade. After a few emails, we agreed to trade, and I promptly sent my Kenwood off to him. He recieved it Dec. 21, and I have yet to recieve anything. I've been given every excuse in the book, his computer crashed, his grandfather died, it's going to cost to much to ship, his local post office won't allow him to ship across the border to Canada.....etc. Now i'm not recieving any responses from him at all. Anyways..... beware of ai4bt, Ronnie Byrd. Another deal gone bad. :(
