UNFAIR TRADING !!!!!!!!!!
Just wanted to let everyone out there know that the is a cretin individual that is selling junk boats on e-bay his name is Charles Rankin, e-bay name is NAMBE1203
This is what happen. About a month ago a good friend of mine won an auction from this person it was for a SG 21 and he paid $320 for it with shipping. he said that it was in great shape ready to race it came with one steering servo and all the hard wear. Said that all that was needed was radio and engine and it was ready to go. Well needless to say when he received the boat he was horrified at what it looked like. and after closer inspection he found that the tub on the right side was repaired and that it was not straight. it was so bent that there was a 1/4" shim under the front right sponsion tube just to have it come out straight we put it on a piece of glass and it was bent down almost a 1/2"
He tried to contact this person regarding the condition of the boat with no response he finally contacted e-bay about the problem and the sent him an e-mail. Then he did reply. His reply was DON'T BE A BABY AND JUST RUN IT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT!!!!!
so my friend started to see if he could get it fixed and this it what it looked like also all the wood is rotten
Hope someone knows this person and let's him know what I wrote here. :angry:
