Pro you need to talk to a lawyer and find out what he/she says. They will advise you on your best course of action. We all love the drama and all but you need to pull the trigger on that part of this as it is obvious that the two of you will not get this figured out by yourselves. That is why they exist. Don't however do as I have done in the past and think that with time people will come around, they won't. They are either pre disposed to doing the right thing, or like LDD they are not. Get it started I think you will find that once you pull the trigger on the lawer you will feel a lot better about things.

George....Indeed we are at different ends, but I'm hopeful we can work through it....

As for the rest of these windbags...I can careless, honestly...You and I have been very civil and stated our views and trying to work toward a resolution, which should be our objective....

The rest of these guys want to stir, so I'm stirring them up....

I'll be waiting for ya.....You might pack a lunch, I might be a little bigger of a dude than you expect and I have several employee's.....so pack a lunch incase you get wore out..
:food-smiley-007:

This is exactly what a con-man does George, try's to smooth talk a way out of a jam. Look at all his postings. He's not apologetic to no-one including you. The con continues. Cut off all contact with this idiot. Like Audiofin say's you'll feel much better once you get the ball rolling on legal action. He ain't got squat for a case and he ain't got the 14K of your inheritence from your father.

I see poofed people.

What a loser :rolleyes:

ZP is right prostock. This is the point where I would end communications and let the lawyers handle it. Get judgement against him and hit him in his credit as well as his wallet. He's a scammer and needs to be shut down.

If this case is as cut and dry as everyone seems to think it is including myself I would think a lawyer would have no problem taking your case on a contingency basis. What would stop a lawyer from doing so would be if as some seem to thing LDD has no assets. Can't squeeze blood out of a broke conman.

It's hard to get a lawyer interested with this type of smaller money civil case. Contingency is typically a third plus exp. Possibly Judge Judy would like to fry, I mean err try this case.

Boat was purchased, listed as $15,000 or so in the last pic. LDD said he paid higher when he was offering it. Embellishment? You decide. On BF there was a pic of some damage to the side of the hull, and then the trailer damage. This is apparently when PS realized he might be getting scammed probably, just guessing here. In the end, LDD states he sold the boat for far less than what PS agreed to pay. Obviously, he couldn't scam the next buyer as quickly. In this thread, apparently the boat was still for sale on Ebay for a lower price, and at the end of June?

I see the real issue as "As Is, where Is" versus undisclosed damage and pictures used to display the item for sale.


With just a cursory look at LDD's business dealing online, it's apparent he's someone that everyone's been warned about at some point in their lives. The issue of not sending in a deposit for a boat he listed on Ebay, that he did not own? Kinda crazy. On another forum, the speakers issue. Who knows what else, but there doen't seem to be a lot of happy campers that have done any business with him. Personal problems tend to screw people up and they can act irrationally, even irresponsibly. But when you list scams like this one, add in his prior "dealings", then view the pictures of cars/trucks/houses that he is flaunting, you get the kind of person that nobody would like to do business with, deal or not. Ebay and Craigslist are so full of scammers I now avoid them like the plague.

I'd rather enrich local people or people I know.I hope the end result of this can be displayed, unlike many others that remain undisclosed forever due to signing off on it. That's the only way to try and limit the potential damage in the future.

Awesome. But I have a hard time believing that anyone you know would put their ass on the line for you...and after checking your website --- http://www.extremeremarketing.com/ --- the only employees I see in your shady business are two women named Tiffany and Selina.

This is the last you'll hear from me on this forum, but you will get to meet me in the new year.

ProStock - Like a lot of people are saying --- Just take it to the courts. LDD will be liable for your attorney fees. No need to feel stupid for signing the contract. It was an illegal contract, and that makes it invalid. A contract is only legal when both parties have something to gain/lose from it. This one was heavily swayed in the sellers favor, it was written by a used car salesman, and if LDD followed it to the letter then he would only try to keep your Good Faith Deposit of $2000. But even that would be wrong. LDD's logic is twisted. Take a look at his actual business. Even it is shady, and none of those cars you see on his website are ones that he owns or has owned. Peace.

Only a true Puzzy would bring wife,,kids,family into this and yes if you have a beef with Steve knock on his door and introduce yourself :evilb: Oh chit maybe you'll be visiting me to now :grinser010:

C,mon now BIG Daddy , the herd is gettin thin there all grazing the clean pastures at SERIOUS :ernaehrung004::ernaehrung004:

I meant that I saw that LDDs is a ghost over there and his posts no longer exist.

That's exactly my point! --- Only a true Puzzy would bring wife,kids,family into this --- When you make business dealings like LDD, and treat people like crap, you directly drag your family down into the muck and involve them in negative things. Which is probably one of the many reasons she left him. I also really don't think that myself or anyone here means anything bad toward this man's poor family. It is enough they have to deal with him.

What is wrong with you people?

I have been experiencing pain in my right shoulder for about a month. Hoping that it goes away.

All kidding aside, my wife and kids have nothing to do with this you f*cking @sshole.....

Why dont you post your address or PM it to me? you pull my wife and kids into this again and you wont have to worry about paying me a visit.....I'll be on my way to see you...lets see just how big your ball sack is now...

Vicodin & Vodka is the cure :eek::ernaehrung004:

Tick, tock, tick, tock!!!! How much longer???? Poof!!!!!

Sam

Now there's a man with INTEGRITY.

If this thread gets poofed, I'm sure people will take it more SERIOUS next time.

Though I could see why but would they with this many hits?

I wouldn't expect fantastic ethical practices from someone in the line of work. I mean, from sub-prime auto loans right to the used car lot. Not to paint with a big brush, but I would imagine that business would harden you a little bit.

Not to mention that it appears his business sells repo'd cars and dealer trade-ins that no one wants via the internet. Likely misrepresenting what they actually are.

I don't think thats a far stretch of the imagination. Hell, he pretty much says just that on his website.

Says he has a knack for getting top dollar for those vehicles...

hmmmmmm, i wonder how?

This is just sad.
Anyone feeling justified in these sort of dealings...sad.

I had the opportunity to meet some folks from this board that I've conversed with for years this past weekend.
They were exactly the type of people I expected them to be - my kind of people, boaters, and I feel fortunate to call them friends. To have been able to break some bread with them makes it even better.
I at least appreciate that the "involved parties" here have shown their true colors.
This just really botches the whole "brotherhood" feeling I usually get when around other boaters.
At least now, I know who to stay away from.
My integrity is worth more than $14K.
I prefer to hang with people that put a higher price on their integrity than they do on a used car.

f*cking @sshole.....: ???????????????? eek: UT - OH KNOCK KNOCK




Lmao

Oh shut your cake hole!!!!:angry-smiley-038::party-smiley-004::grinser010::ernaehrung004:

Ditto:stupid::throw:

Prostock,
I believe you're a good person so I'll give you my 64 year old grandfatherly advise. Get proactive !!! Either kiss your money goodbye, settle for whatever he's willing to pay or get a lawyer, pay his fee and keep the remainder.
This thread started on Nov 6th and it is Nov 25 today and you are no further along.
Virtually all of us on OSO support you but unfortunatly Mr. dong is feeding off this thread, his 5 minutes of fame and it's not helping you any.
Geat beyond this and good luck,
ed

This guy deserves to have a 12k limp for the rest of his life, what a total POS.

Guys please keep it clean and no threats.Prostock is giving LDD to the end of the day today to make good on a deal for the 12,000.00. If he does not hear from LDD he is giving the lawyer a "go". I was thinking at that time I would ask OSO to lock this thread so that his name will be linked to it forever and not risk getting it deleted in the future.What do you guys think? Then we can post results after the court date on a different thread. I also think once all this happens we should ask OSO in a vote of the members to have LDD banned from this site forever.Let me know how everone thinks we should proceed.

Thanks Anthony R.
Nordic95

go back a couple pages....I already suggested it get locked. There hasn't been anything new here since page 2.

and another thread with the outome would be GREAT!!!!!

I just tried contacting our new leaders here.Lets see if they care to reply.

I'm glad you know more than me....I still havent recieved a response from Prostock that states anything close to "the end of the day"......

If thats the case, dont wait.....the offer was $8k from your side, not $12k.....dont wait fire him up....I've been waiting...

No problem...

I just realized this thread is 8th in all time history of the highest views on OSO. WOW talk about exposure....

talking out of the side of your arse again Anthony?....Apperantly now you have an alabama attorney?.....what a joke....the lies continue...

Your bluff has been called Anthony....no emails from Prostock that suggested "I have until the end of the day", No Alabama Attorney, No case.....Try Again...

hasnt hurt me, my business, my lifestyle, nothing.....

How about your reputation?

I noticed that too. That's when I stopped wondering why in the world this thread would still be here with the sticky about "the tone" up there. I can only assume that it is the primary content and page view destination right now.

who cares on a forum board?......its the internet....I dont care what anyone on here thinks about me personally, morally, or any other way....
