[tomdiginson]

Why are people still gifting money when they make these purchases ? Hopefully all goes well and you get your money back OP

 

[jaysneaks]

I've been here a long time, and I wouldn't have gifted any dough.. especially that amount.

Good luck on getting your money back bro.

For the love of money.....

 

[jfmartimcdandruff]

dang can't trust anybody....AY2 was one of the lowest points in sneaker history...i know op gifted, but it shouldn't have to be like that

tough luck, i don't thing fang's gonna do anything unless u meet up with him face to face

Yes that's why you must find a licensed escrow service designed to handle large amounts of monies and efficiently complete transactions where said monies are involved.

Hold up, this dude scammed yall for 4 grand?!!!?!

This is such a tempting hustle.

EDIT

Hyper is right yall dudes are extra dumb for gifting him the money and come off real childish in this thread and for the troll posts in pm and on his flickr/twitter. I mean the crap I'm reading feels like children posted it. Funny too cuz Hyper would've definitely helped you out money wise.

 

[sk8eddunks]

you won't fly to shanghai and confront him tho?

good look, y'all... 

and hyper, we're just applying pressure, annoyance, and making the community aware he's a scammer...

so what, if you get scammed you just quietly file your chargeback and don't really talk about it with the community?

then the joke's on you.

i'm sick of these scum, and we need to put them on blast. period.

The sooner you realize there ain't no "community" the better off you'll be.  Yall kill me with all that.  It's only a community when someone else wants something.

And I bet you thought you were getting a steal, relatively speaking.  9 times out of 10 the scamee should have known better.

never even heard of that member before

This.
You can't be friends with a screen name. 

But at the same I feel for you, bro. My advice..file the chargeback and move on.

3 of us NT'ers got scammed by this long time NT'er for yeezy 2's... apart from his reputation around the forum, NOTHING ever pointed to him being a scammer with this deal. he made me wait to send payment until he had them in hand, stayed in touch with me several times a day after payment was sent, etc (not what scammers usually do at all). because of this and because of my interactions with him on the forum over the years, i did trust him and sent part of the payment as a "gift". we are working on getting the money back (using a chargeback thru my credit card company for the gift part of it), but in the meantime, everyone needs to know, and we need to fry this dude. i don't think he had any intention of scamming us until right up to the end. the last time he replied to me was last saturday (when he said he would either send the shoes or a refund on monday) and i haven't heard from him since. me and several established NT'ers have tried to contact him and talk some sense into him, but have not heard back.

he's from the UK and is living temporarily in Shanghai right now (as you will see from his recent Flickr uploads):

http://fang-bian-mian.u.yuku.com/

he's been on this forum since 2007. has an impressive collection (OG 1991 infrared 6's, tons of stuff, as you can see on his Flickr and PhotoBucket). has done many successful shoe deals with people on ebay and kicksxchange.

he started big threads like this, showing he's obviously a serious sneaker lover: http://niketalk.com/topic/169827

here's search results for his posts on NT:

http://niketalk.yuku.com/...mp;advanced=1&page=1

this is what this release has done to people, y'all... made good guys turn bad for some short term cash.

here's all the info i have on him.

i'm definitely gonna bid on anything he puts on ebay and try to win it and not pay. i may even win and scam him (thru friends accounts in other parts of the world, so he doesn't know it's me).

he obviously loves his flickr and photography, he's part of many groups on there, i've seen NT'ers comment on his photos, and he's won lil' flickr awards for some of his work, so i'm gonna comment on all his photos about him being a scammer, and he will likely have to delete each comment, which will be a pain in the @$%... and if he blocks me i got multiple accounts on deck to keep doing it. some NT'ers have agreed to do this also.

the 3 of us he scammed have worked hard for our money, it's not mommy & daddy's money. i'm a grown man, and so is this dude, he's at least in his 30's... i'm into sneakers, and i loved these shoes since they first popped up, i was the first to bring up close, detailed pix to the entire world of these shoes ( http://www.nicekicks.com/...eezy-2-blackpink-images/ ), and have been a major contributor to the thread, and this forum in general.

all we wanted was the damn shoes, and i trusted a long time member of this forum to come thru for us. other long time members also said they would have trusted him, even sent as a "gift". and although we may get our money back, we need to make the entire sneaker community aware of these snakes in our grass, and cut their heads off. it's stuff like this that makes me wanna hang the whole thing up.

i woud have any of your backs against these scammer scum of the earth bottom feeders. they're the biggest problem we all have, by far.

any help would be much appreciated, NT.

PM him, email him, comment on his Flickr pictures, tell him to do the right thing and ship the shoes or refund us, and he will redeem himself and save his reputation.

i did trust him and sent part of the payment as a "gift"

i did trust him and sent part of the payment as a "gift"

i did trust him and sent part of the payment as a "gift"

i did trust him and sent part of the payment as a "gift"

i did trust him and sent part of the payment as a "gift"

Here we go again.

We just had a whole thread about using the gift option

 

[jones23me]

smh at you for sending as a gif

hype you shouldve been a mod. looks like you do a better job than they do, IF they even do their job.

Hyper is a great dude but you dudes are pathetic if you accept a dime from him.

actually theres a high possibility of u being scammed because people know how generous you are with the dinero and someone will make a thread about being scammed and then u will swoop in and pay them. 
Thats all hypothetical tho.

*goes to buy/sell forum to buy yeezys off someone with low postcount who just joined NT*

 

[baldgrill]

You threw him the alley oop. Can you blame him for throwing it down, taking yall yeezy money, and booking it to shanghai?

He's probably wearing your shoes right now, blasting some "who gon stop me" eating some fang bian mian with a lil tia tanaka under his arm like

Live and learn fam. Hopefully next time you'll be more careful before trusting a stranger in another country with thousands of your dollars.

He cakes up off of poker, makes me wish I had paid more attention to playing cards when I was growing up to perfect that

OP though, as soon as I saw "gift", I didn't even have to read the rest. mondaynightraw's thread should've taught people from then on not to use those to make a deal.

If someone on here is smart enough to scam me, then they honestly deserve my money and I would probably just send them even more money for outwitting me.
