    i got ripped off on that dam pbnation also.. I have gone through the post office since i sent him the post office money order with a comformation number.. What he did is considered mail fraud and is a federal offense. It takes a little while to go through the post offices system but it is going to cost him alot more in the long run than what he got from me. They said unless the parents pay i probably wont get my money back but he will have a criminal mark on his record. Im sure when they finally show up on his door step things will change. Good Luck

      You are better off using a third party trade in situations like that. I also tend to not deal with kids, they seem the be the higher proportion of troubles.

      Call the kid, then call his parents, then call the cops.

          Having failed to reach a conclusion before this prepare to take it further

          Step one: Write a letter of demand. Include in it your version of the events up to this point and demand remedy (either the marker you were trading for or your marker back plus shipping) within ten days. Inclue as much information as possible including dates, times, correspondences that you can prove in writing, etc. This will give you some documentation in case you have to take it further. Save a copy

          Step two: Certified mail. Certified mail (signature required) not only proves they have received it, it generally scares people into action.

            I actually kinda want to get ripped off once....just to see how much of a living hell I could make that kid's life.
            Our former neighbor and good friend of the family is now a very powerful judge, I have 3 friends that have very well respected lawyers as dads, and I know a few more lawyers just from working at a law firm for 2 weeks(floor covering)

              Do a reverse lookup on the phone number you have on superpages.com. If he does live with his parents hopefully you'll get one of his parents names with the reverse phone lookup. You can also google the address you mailed the gun to.

                          Since he's selling stolen goods, or attempting to, isn't that another criminal offense? I think this kid may be feeling kinda scared right now...

                          And I assume he is playing with his timmy in the vid? I didn't see any blue proto.

                          edit: unless he's the guy in the back... The vid is low quality, I can't tell if that's a proto, but it is blue so...
                          you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

                            Go to scarycreek.com and watch the videos of the tournament. He's using the blue Proto the entire time.
                            The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves. 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

                                Under the tournament page on scary creek there are some pics..i think the pic of the 2 guys..the blond one may be him..since just 2 of them played that tourney and it was 3 man..and he had a blue jersey on..tried to find a pic of him on his teams site with no mask but all are of him playing..also i emailed their team email in hopes of contacting a guy named eric hes in his 30's so i figured maybe he will have a little bit of morales and try to help me out or something idk..

                                Ok so one of those 2 guys are for sure him...there are some better pics on another page..

                                Actually one of them is using the proto and i believe the other is using the Lasoya ...wtf..
