Problems with Mike440

I am sorry for having to post another "one of those guys" thread, but I'm starting this new thread in case he decides to delete his pack of lies, woe as me excuses thread here:

Buyer beware if you are dealing with Mike440 (Mike Hayes), I personally have been waiting for a month and a half on parts that have never arrived nor will he refund my money ($160). Only excuses, as well as it seems a lot of other members going through the same thing. This is a repeat of the member ply30 (Justin Figgatt) incidentally who lives only a few miles from this Mike440 guy.

Here is the 22 page thread on that guy:

I personally feel these two guys are indeed the same person, too many coincidences to not be the same (or at least related in some way) since they live in the same area. And by same area I mean only a few miles apart. What are the odds of that. I'm sure the local authorities there will have all the answers on both of these guys and if they are indeed the same person.

If any of you would like to join me in pursuing this legally I will more than likely be contacting the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's office (ironically both Mike440 and Ply30 's court house) next week when I am off work again. Just let me know or at least show interest by replying here on this thread. No this is not an idle threat, I fully intend to pursue this as it is only 4 hours or so away from me and I don't mind driving there for any required paperwork; but by waiting until at least Monday perhaps he will start issuing refunds to people.

I don't know about you , but I am sick and tired of the excuses, and his claim of "if you don't like my shipping; file a claim" will not get you off from having criminal intentions. No excuse to not ship people's parts within a month or two (yes, there are some people who have been trying to get parts from this guy since February....what is his excuse for that?) Now he is in full "half my family died, half has cancer" (reminds me of Klinger from M.A.S.H. trying to get out of the army) excuses, funny how he never mentioned any of that when he was taking our money and giving us other ridiculous reasons and postponements for not shipping any parts.

Again, I am truly am sorry for having to post this and it being another "one of those guys" thread, but it is amazing he has time to post for sale ads, reply to wanted ads, go to swap meets, go on the weekends to "look at NOS" parts, but has no time to ship out parts people give him money. Nope, if a person can't ship out parts or refund money, then they are just a scammer.

I left negative feedback as I feel a month and a half is enough for anybody, I encourage anybody else who has waited over a month to do the same and perhaps prevent anyone else from going through this. I hope potential buyers of his parts will read this or his feedback and think twice before they have to endure what the rest of us are going through.

Odd thing is I am really a nice, easy going person and have been very nice and understand up until now so I am not really looking just to lynch or crucify someone for the fun of it, but it seems there are just too many complaints for there not to be something unethical going on. If this does turn out to be Justin's handy work then if he is a repeat offender he may have to serve jail time and not just pay the money back...something to think about...If I were Justin...errr, excuse me...I mean Mike...I would seriously think about that.

On the other hand, if I miraculously receive ALL of my parts that mysteriously vanished after he supposedly shipped them out 3 seperate times (with no tracking numbers to prove anything though, how convenient) and one of them suppossedly got returned to him by the post office; then I will apologize on here....not holding my breath on that one though.
