Buyer Beware: Andy4879
Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2010 5:59 pm
FYI Ebay user name Andy4879 is up to his SCAMS again.
He left this guy negative and then pulled the ol "send you back a different amp than you sent me trick"
Alpine MRD-F752 5-channel car amplifier - eBay (item 200473376640 end time May-17-10 18:41:40 PDT)
June 17th of this month he did this one to Ebay user ryanjg11
Andy is so nice by asking buyers not to leave him negative feedbacks but look how easy it is for him to ruin someone else's feedback.
I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD GIVE ANDY A TASTE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE AND LEAVE HIM A BUNCH OF NEGATIVES.

Everything works perfect, I install car audio, this worked even after u returned
I can confirm that andy4879 is back to his old ways! I sold him an alpine MRD-F752 5-channel amplifier in perfect condition. Packaged it well, and shipped it off to him. He told me it was broken upon receiving it (speaker terminals were bent, he claimed) but that there was no box damage--absolutely impossible given how I packaged it and how durable this amp was.
He then was able to con another $25 out of me to pay for it to be shipped back to me. At this time, I took him at face value because I'm a trustworthy guy. I was then contacted by an anonymous former-victim of his, warning me that he has a history of claiming damage, trying to get price concessions from the seller, and then opening claims on eBay/Paypal.
He did in fact ship me back an equivalent product, but I believe he pulled the ol' switcheroo trick... He swapped out my mint amp with his old broken one, and shipped me back the piece of crap.
Chances are you will see my MRD-F752 pop up on one of his auctions in the very near future. In the end, he will probably make $350 off this transaction, with zero invested.
Just warning you guys to avoid him at all costs. He has perfect feedback on eBay under andy4879 (with over 2,000 transactions), but he only uses this account as a "buyer" account and has multiple other accounts for performing his scams. As you might know, buyers no longer can receive negative feedback on eBay and he is exploiting this new loophole.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS
