Bad buyer beware: danioarmani

I have paid for, and have been holding a sensor for this guy's white Maxima (the one with the altezzas) for months now! He was in a bit of a tight spot and I offered to help him out by buying it for him - and at the time I would only be "spotting" him the money for a week until he got paid.

He was having some issues with his car that should not be ignored for too long so I bought him the sensor and was going to install it for him too (normally about a $100 job at the dealership).

Well, that was over 2 months ago! He does not reply to my e-mails or return my cell phone messages. What did I get for my kindness and generosity? A stiff...

I have seen him driving around town with his new 18" rims and I have seen him post (albeit infrequently) on here. If someone does see him, please hunt his a$$ down for me.

This is also a warning to other buyers/sellers to be weary of him. BTW, his name is Dan.

READ what he said, he purchased and held the part on behalf of the guy with the understanding that he would be paid back when he installed it for him :tounge:

what the hell are you talking about?

i was in a tight spot? what kind of bs is that.... you said you'd order the sensor for me in return for a dvd burner i was going to order you.

you ordered it, and you paid for it... ok i understand... everytime you call im at work.. what you want me to do? i ripped you off? how so... i didn't even get anything from you, nor did i give u anything.....

another thing, due to this humiliation here on vitalmotion i just want to let you know you know what you can do with the sensor......exactly......

and hunt my a$$ down? for what..........u don't have to find me or hunt me down.... tell me a place and i'll meet you....... why the **** would i be avoiding you... and why you have to make such a big deal....

damn...

why should this be deleted? it seems like there is a legit reason for it being here.

did you or did you not ask him to order the part?

if so, pay him

problem solved.

i don't have a problem paying him, and i don't have a problem either if he gives me a good contact that i could call him at..... so we could meet.... i work 2 jobs and its hard to meet up..... and everyone is making a big deal that they shouldn't.....

the idea of this forum is similar to that of the feedback system on ebay, it rewards those that do business like adults.

the cocky attitude gets a big . holding his money at ransom b/c you're insecure?

first off ya'll need to mind your own damn business.
second of all fighting here on vital motino forums is pathetic considering the fact you probably see each other on the raod.

and 3rd of all if you owe people money, pay them the damn money.

period.

You're doing business with another person. If you do bad buisness, you get a bad reputation. Now I don't about where you come from, but for me, if somebody came and asked me to get a part for them, and in turn I was unable to contact for them MONTHS, I'd start to question the persons integrity. Not to mention I'd really question it if I didn't have any $ in my hand.

If you don't want your "good name" slandered on the internet then you should've responded to the guy. Seems it only took you 2 days to find and respond to this thread. I'm not gonna judge you on that fact though, beacause quite frankly I don't know all the details.

We live in Canada where you can say and write what you want (albeit to a certain extent) and if you don't like what he wrote then get in touch with him and resolve it instead of arguing over the internet. Personally I think it's pretty child-like to not pay the guy because he called you out on an internet forum. How else would he have gotten you talking to him?

P.S. You should have a little more respect for the mods, they do a good job and you should be thankful for that.

Dan, I think you are trying to pull another one of your usual "stunts" in public.

I will admit one thing - you were extremely friendly to me and truly made me believe that you have changed a lot since back in 2002 when you were looking into buying my rims (and we both know how that went).

But back to the present - you tried to call me? Why is it then that my phone never rang? I always pick up. Even if I did not, why not leave me a voicemail? At least that way I know that you called... (duh, like I have to explain the purpose of voicemail).

What about all the e-mails I sent you? I did not receive a SINGLE response to them in the last while. I have been e-mailing you every other day (I wanted to be a pest to the point where you at least respond to my phone calls or emails so I stop bugging you... but I really do not have the time to chase you down).

I really did not want to bring this out in public because we made a deal and I always deliver as promised. However you seem to have a problem with that and despite me giving you the benefit of the doubt over and over again, I never heard from you. As I said in another thread, I am not a bank... you told me that you were in a tight spot and couldn't pay me until you got paid later that week. But since I found such a good deal on the sensor I even made numerous phone calls to the seller in the US (at my own expense of course - none of which I cared to recover from you) to get the deal done and make sure that you don't miss out. I even paid for you, on the understanding that it was going to be only until you got paid.

I do not have a problem with this thread being deleted, AFTER I get my money in full. I will leave that upto the moderators though. I really do not have anything against you and once again, this is not personal - it is business. I am not made of money like you claim to be. So why can you not be responsible and follow through with your promises?

It didn't before... I was just going to do it for you as a favour.

But we will have to see when we meet. I am going on vacation at the end of the week and actually am going to be very busy all week this week, as I have been in the last couple of weeks. I have lots of the company's off-site locations to visit and complete work that would cost them a lot of moolah if not completed by the end of the month when I leave.

Okay, so I really REALLY did not want to post in this thread again. But I really have no choice now.

Dan has managed to avoid meeting me for a few days already, despite me offering to drive RIGHT TO HIM! He even had the audacity to threaten me to pull this thread "or else". Hmmm... I wonder what that means. Oh yeah he also threatened to have cops at MY door?? I don't get it.

Dan, your time is up! I am flying to Europe on Friday morning and I told you that we need to get this done before I leave. You said that it will be done by today. I wasted 2 hours yesterday, when I still had a LOT of work to finish off at my work. You wasted another hour of mine today waiting for you in the area that you agreed to meet me. I left you numerous text messages and called you about as persistently as a crack addict but you never picked up or called me as you promised JUST AN HOUR EARLIER!!!

The knock sensor is no longer for sale to you. I would rather keep it and swallow the loss than waste more time on you. My time is worth more than your p.o.s. car and the problem that I tried to help you out of with it. Why would you avoid my calls and e-mails? You text message me every so often to throw a weak threat, but you don't have the balls to pick up the phone?? WHY? If you really do not have the money or do not want the sensor, JUST SAY SO! WHY waste my time by giving me false hopes??? It took this thread to even get you talking to me (albeit with false hopes and weak threats via text messages).

Oh yeah one more thing... threaten me one more time, and I will make sure that everyone here finds out about what you tried to do 3 years ago and what happened with your job here in KW last month. It really is none of their business but when you threaten somebody from VM, you make it everybody's business and I am confident that the VM crew will back me up on this one. People like you never do change. I got to learn to stop getting burned by trying to help people like you.

You know I have been following this thread for some time now.I just don't understand, I mean it isn't that difficult: Either you want the part or you don't???? Why is that so hard to understand?? I don't see the point in leading Speedemn around? It wastes his time and gets you a bad name on VM. Is that what you want?

I don't know you, but, I think I can speak for most people here: I am sure as hell never going to do business with you after this thread.

So pay the guy or just tell him you don't want the part. Why dick around??

thats really funny, keep making up things anish....



....and for vitalmotion editors, i would strongly recommend that this post be removed, cause its not a threat.... police have been contacted and filed a harrassment charge. So if anyone is really smart, post one more post and find out the result. you guys probably think im joking, but im not. this post is being watched, and action will be done.

you can tell your life stories on here anish, and we all know i can start with many of your issues too, but i don't involve anyone with that, cause im not a low life person like you who has nothing better to do. So just a reminder, this caused you more problems than you thought it would. Im going to deal with this issue til the end.

Whether i sacrafice my posting on here or not, or if vm is on anyone's side, i don't really care, cause all i get is more backstabbing and have noticed lately how everyone on here talks about everyone......but anyways its not my business........
