I really didn't want to make this a public deal but at this point I think it is the only way I'm going to get JWP58's attention. I purchased a camera from JWP58 that turns out to have some issues. Here is my original PM to him: My wife likes the thought of a second camera. She just wants to make sure there aren't any issues. If no issues we will take it.
Matt
Here is his response: None. No scuffs, scratches, ect. The lenses are perfect. If you want it, i'll take a USPS money for $320 (Im guessing it will be about $20 to ship it). Just let me know so I can post it SPF.
Also it comes with all instructional manuals and original box. (I removed his personal info).
The Camera showed up and has some issues. here is the PM I sent to him letting him know: James, the camera got here yesterday afternoon. There is a problem with the 28-80 lens. It does not work when on the Auto Focus. It doesn't work on this body or my wifes 50D. The inside of the camera will need a professional cleaning. If it was just the cleaning we would just get it done but since the lens isn't working correctly I would like to send this back to you for a refund. I'm hoping you understand. I of course will cover the return shipping.
Matt
I have been waiting 4 days for a response. He read the PM within an hour of me sending it. I guess I am just going to end up stuck with some faulty equipment. Just beware when you are dealing with JWP58.

That seems to happen a lot on here lately. Look and the recent posts. If a person sells something on here he should stand behind it.

I'm not ruling that out yet. Hate hearing this stuff on here. I have done hundreds of deals with members and not a single problem I can recall. Hope this gets worked out without turning into a circus........

I don't want a circus either 2MG. I have had many good deals here also. Don't let a couple ruin the bunch.

4 days with no response after reading the PM = unsat.

I usually stay away from electronic items FS, but do remember the post by JWP58. Sorry to hear your being ignored, obviously he is another f*cking [bleep] trying to scalp $320 from a stranger on the internet.
Post up his name/address if he doesn't come forward to protect others.

Some call me naive but I like to give a man every benefit of doubt. If I felt that I had to do a call out thread, it would go something like this:
Subject: (Campfire Members Name)
Hey man, I'm hoping to reach you and am having problems doing so. I don't mean to put you on the spot here. I'm just hoping some mutual friends here can reach you.
I look forward to completing our transaction. Hope all is well with you and your family.
Respectfully, HAJ
I don't like reading about business that belongs between two adults. I don't mind using the networking power of the Campfire to help with communications though.

Hug, I hear you. That is why I created another thread yesterday asking if anyone knows him. I also sent additional PM's asking him to respond��..No luck.

If a person sends a PM to another member and the messages are being read and ignored, then something is up.....
