    hi guys, so this guy name - иεvvεи٭т -ツ ..... wow i think he really scammed me

    so he wanted to get rid of his arc10 with 2 huge chips badly last time (some of you guys probably have seen it on buy&sell forum)

    and same time, i wanted to sell my victor MX80 almost brand new condition badly.

    what he asked me was "trade arc10 and mx80 with his extra money"

    so i said yeah sure... and i sent racket to his house that's located in Austrailia, with tracking number.

    however this guy said he sent my racket like a month and half ago with regestered mail (no tracking number), and said it would take 1 week to get to my place.

    now i checked my tracking number, hes got my racket long time ago.

    and i still haven't got this arc 10.

    After last week, hes not even responding my PM.

    I really need to get those refund... what should i do?

    oh dear , should be more careful and check the member profile before dealing. Check their posts and see if they are actually here for badminton reason. I have seen some sale in the buying/selling section that I regard as fake which they trying to sell -off as genuine , mostly Yonex newer models . The best way to buy is from someone local !!!

    If he dont reply then your racket is gone

    A month and a half is a long time but I've had things take longer from the US... customs also plays a role and now with the CanadaPost strike, even if it is in the mail then you won't be getting it soon.

    No offense but a trade with a guy in Australia??? Really??
