Re: John In RI is a jerk FYI

Ready ???? Here's one of the adds that Brett placed here on TGO:

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/inte...co-radios.html

When it was posted we were communicating about these radios and he ( as shown in the add ) knew exactly what they were. He then placed these radio on E-Bay and specifically sold them as GTA radios ---> KNOWING full well that they were not GTA radios, but selling then as GTA radios because they sell at a premium. He attempted to sell them here first but because our membership is well informed, he tried to sell them as they were. But when selling them on E-Bay they somehow turned into GTA radios. ( he used the exact same pics for the E-Bay auctions. ) I confronted Brett about this after he lied and said that he didn't know the difference; I re-check the auctions, and proved he was lying. Didn't hear back from Brett after I called him out for lying - till he thought he could make a buck on my wanted add.

Now he is re-writing history to make it seem as if he didn't know what the radios were when he listed them on E-Bay. How is that possible ?? they sold on E-Bay first, then he listed then here on TGO after they were already sold ??? . No. They were listed in a classified here and when they didn't sell he listed them on E-Bay as GTA radios to make $$ from people that didn't know better. He's just re-writing the timeline to fit his lies.

Like I wrote to him then " I know what kind of guy does this and it's not someone I'll be dealing with or referring other members too." I left it at that; no trolling his post, no talking **** about him on other forums. Other members had good luck him so I decided to not deal with Brett myself.

Recently I placed a "wanted" add here on TGO that Brett replied too.
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/exte...ens-bezel.html

As you can see I reminded Brett that I know what kind of person he is and that I would not be dealing with him. He's here to make $$ so he will respond to every add anytime he thinks there's $$ in it for him.

I recently joined Facebook. While on Facebook I (unknowingly) asked Brett for a price on a center console bracket: he replied several times and once I realized who I was getting notifications from ---> I blocked him.​​​​​​ I do not wish to do business with Brett, I have made that clear several times in the past. I did not flame Brett, call him names, drag his reputation thru the mud, or defame him in any way - just blocked him so I wouldn't see his adds. Yet; still he sent me a PM this week asking to buy parts.

This week I get a PM from Brett asking for parts. I told him " sure", I had the T-Tops he wanted and would sell them to him for $15,086.53,.......... + shipping. Because he's an ignoramus he didn't get it I clarified my position in a way that he would clearly understand that I will not do business with him. "A Guns & Roses quote seems appropriate..... "Why don't you just -----> *** OFF !" ". This was kept private and I did not publicly shame / flame Brett anywhere publicly.

I have something Brett wants - I will not sell it to Brett - and Brett has taken on a mission to defame me because I will not do business with a lying fraud.
Now I'm getting message from members here and on Facebook on how Brett is defaming my name here and spreading crap about me on Facebook; Also had an account from a guy named "Joe Thomas" from Minnesota calling me names and spreading rumors on Facebook too. Really,..... that's how your going to act dude !?! Like a spoiled child ?? ( true colors ) Within 1/2 hour of telling him off he was writing crap about me online.

Brett's actions here show the kind of POS he really is. I've got what he wants and will not deal with a LYING FRAUD so he's online discrediting my 20+ year history as a reputable / honest Thirdgen owner & parts seller because I (privately) told him off. Sure would be good for Bretts "business" & $$ making ambitions if a some reputable sellers were discredited and people looking for parts heard what an A-Hole I am........ Only 1 kind of person does this, and it's not someone I will associate with.

If the membership here wants to deal with Brett - go for it; I refuse to do business with him. Since you prefer your public declarations Brett ----> ***-OFF.

Re: John In RI is a jerk FYI

and help people with the parts they actually need rather than selling them **** just to make money.
Honestly is the best policy;

Of your 500 posts here on TGO,........ all but 15 of them are in the classifieds trying to sell WAY overpriced parts to other members. Some of us know what you paid for that CD player you posted here @ $1000 and on E-Bay @ $1500. Just helping with the parts they need I see..........

I wore socks today. Might wear socks tomorrow. Haven't decided about the day after that.

.... And that story is more interesting and important than this thread.
