In case you do not belong to ECA which requires you to register there to read this, here is my thread...
Well, might as well bring it out in the open since this is the last email he sent me:
"I see that you have dealt with PAYPAL, so this is our end of discussion, I
will NOT REFUND ANY OF UR MONEY OUT OF MY OWN POCKETS for the 1st sub or the
2nd sub at all becuz u have ****ed me off already for what you have done.
If you dont' get ur money back from PAYPAL, too bad and I'll no longer
answer any of ur emals so don't bother writing back."
This is after this ahole sells me this (from his post on 1/2/04:
"I got a new BRAHMA 15" Sub that has never been power and never installed. It's still in it's original wood crate. $365US SHIPPED. Shipping is about $45-$55 depending on location so I think this is a steal that I am doing it for $365US SHIPPED. Sub is 45 lbs alone. "

However, a few days earlier, on 12/25/04, in his reply to another thread he wrote this...
"I absolutely agree with Ding. I bought my Brahma 15 just 2 weeks ago, received it yesterday and threw it into a 1.8 Cubic feet box powered by a TRU T2.100. That baby POUNDS like HELL already with the gain only set 1/4 up. No bass boost and the SUB is MOVING A LOT too so I don't thinking breaking in is necessary at all."

He also advertised the same sub on Ebay using a new version of Brahma picture... once again, claiming it was brand new and with warranty and factory packaging...
What I got: an OLD version Brahma wrapped in bubble wrap and newspaper... stuffed in a carboard box so thin you could feel the bottom plate through it... Needless to say, it came completely destroyed with the basket completely cracked around the cone, pretty well scratched up and with no crate or sales receipts or warranty paper...
At the time I sent him the money to pay for this Brahma, he convinced me to send him money for another Brahma which according to him he would order for me, receive it within a week and then ship it to me... That was on the 5th of this month and paid through paypal...
Well, yesterday this POS arrived and it nearly made me speechless... I emailed him right away and he claimed he did not know anything about Brahma and did not know there was a newer version... This is in spite of having the picture of the new version on his Ebay auction. Also, he told me that the original crate broke so he took the special care to package the sub safely... LOL...
When asked to take this POS back and refund my money since he misrepresented the merchandise to begin with, his answer was he did not have the money and that the package was insured. Interestingly enough, the declared value on the package says 0. Nevertheless, he claimed he would file insurance claim since he did supposedly have the receipt of insurance that he bought AFTER shipping the sub. Ok, whatever... I would grow old waiting for the claim considering he did not even have a proof it was damaged since I have the frigging sub... This is if he really did have the insurance...
When I asked him about the other sub, when it would be shipped and if this was the right one, his reply was that he was pretty sure it was the new one, right...
I demanded my money back right away for the second sub since I did not want to deal with the same $hit all over again... However, he claimed he could not do that since he ALREADY ordered the sub (the sub he was suppose have on the 12th and ship it already to me..)
I asked him very nicely to refund the entire money and he gave me the same run around... I warned him I would take other measures and he still was giving the same $hit... He actually ignored my questions re. his post about using this sub and claimed it was brand new and it was the postal service fault that it was damaged, LOL... either stupid or lieying through his teeth... Most likely the second... Oh, since he ordered the second sub, it would take another 14-20 days to return it to refund my money....
Well you know what you mofo? enough of this... Since my bank has to suck it to paypal, I notified the paypal first since they like to go through the motions first (not like they gonna do anything but still they like to take a shot). I guess they did get in touch with him, LOL... So I guess al bets are off... I am pretty sure I will get my money back but in the meantime, I do not want anyone to get %ucked by this mofo so here it goes (to the best of my knowledge):
Name: Charles Nip (I think...)
Ebay Id: morpheus913
Elite Id: swing913
Paypal Id:
alcinanip@hotmail.com
email address:
alcinanip@hotmail.com or

Anyway, I am gonna get my money back and paypal will be the one that ends up getting screwed but in the meantime, if you thought about dealing with this guy, move on and save yourself headaches and stolen money... What a mofo...
