Well, I have come to announce that I got scammed another time. This sucks, but I guess here I am again. I bought a bunch of stuff from him, and he sent it to me, but since the postal office made an error with my address, the package was sent to him again. He said since it was not his fault, I should send him money again to pay for shipping, so I did since I was rather tired of waiting and get nothing. After that he just disappeared, I haven’t heard anything from him since then. I am feeling so stupid by have not using G&S months ago, but then also was gullible enough to sent him money again. Well, that was my experience, but I feel like I am done now. I should just sell my collection and get over with this hobby or whatever

My advice is to not let one negative turn your mood about the whole thing. Though I’ve never been scammed, there are some interactions (BST and otherwise) that aren’t always great. On the whole though, things in yoyo are generally pretty ok to really good.
Well the sad part is that I have been scammed 3 times already, first with Jarod, Vargabond and now him. I feel so stupid that I even believed him and sent more money for “shipping”. It sucks since these are just toys and I have been starting since June and it is like I have been scammed once per month. Well at least I will have to sell some of my collection, so it doesnt feel like I have “lost” money.

was the post office error on his part or their employees ? try to contact him again, this time with the promise or reporting him to authorities and legal action.
if he doesnt do his part of the deal just do it, go to local police or whatever and file a case since you should have his name and address.

Good luck with that…
3-4 years ago my gym locker was broken into. Drivers license, car key fob, watch and 3 credit cards gone. The cop who responded to the call chuckled and basically said “good luck.” Checked my cards on line and within 20 minutes the tools bought about $2500 worth of gift cards. Was able to stop those charges but a new key fob and reprogramming the spares cost me $500. Never heard further from the police department. A couple of hundred $$ for a few yoyos is just noise to the police.

I am not a Scammer, Mysel and my children have been very sick one after another, we all developed pneumonia during the virus, and I ended up with an infection because my immune system was weakened, and it put me in the hospital. I am here now, I have their package, I did send it to them once and it was shipped back to me and not because of my fault but they said it couldnt be delivered. I will send the package as soon as I can get some money together since i have been out of work for quite awhile because of what I explained above. You arent stupid, you were right to trust me because I am a genuine person and would not rip anybody off. I have sent you a mprivate message as well.

For full transparency, I replied. But I have to note that for one, I even send him the money for shipping when it was sent back to him. So him not having any money means that he spent my money as well. And second thing is, I sent him messages on Discord when I saw him online and he didnt say anything back means he was sick enough to not able to reply, but still healthy enough to check his phone regularly…
So until I dont see anything here with me, I still dont care nor do I believe anything

I feel for you, it happens to all eventually sometimes more than once. Do not beat yourself up it is a learning curve that is slow for trusting people… better feeling soon… throw a special throw it helps me often in these situations.
Soooo if you do go full Seppuku I would be interested in what you have?
Bow respectfully
