View Full Version : Bad Ebayer: thescarlettrooster
Godzilla 03-04-2003, 09:04 PM That woman has no communications skills what-so-ever. I won an auction on Feb 3 and paid the same day with Paypal. Ok so it is $6 but it is the principle of the matter. I got in contact with her and she said she sent it. Then I threatened her with negative feedback, charges with paypal and ebay. And she said she sent it. You know, I really do not like ppl who just ignore you and you paid for the items. I gave her a chance but she is taking me for a ride. Not very customer oriented. :mad:
Just a warning to all, be careful with her. Me? I am staying away from her auctions period. My patience has finally worn down. After this I will post negative feedback and charges on paypal.
Too bad, I would have bought a lot of things from her but good thing it was only for one thing.
Godzilla 03-05-2003, 07:45 AM Well Good news. She refunded my money after I filed a complaint thru Paypal. Still I went on reading some ppl's comments and I will just as well not look at her auctions and it seems I am not alone. Anyways, a word of caution when dealing with her.
dmurray 03-05-2003, 05:45 PM i'm sorry to hear about your bad experiance with her.. i had won an auction from her before i checked here and when i found out about her i was nervous. luckly it was only a couple a wings for the stealth fighter and she did ship them out pretty fast..i won't bid on any more of her auctions after finding out about her on this site..
Patrick A. Riley 03-10-2003, 08:25 AM I bought from her on eBay last week. Got the package today. No problem.
Strato Trooper 03-11-2003, 08:16 AM Paid for my ebay auctions in January but am still waiting for my package.
I'm giving her the benefit of doubt cos i'm not in the States.
Will keep this thread updated on whether the package come through. :eek:

BadAsh 03-11-2003, 09:47 AM I bought a number of things from her a while back, like in December. It took her a month or two to get me my items. The first package was lost in the mail ( items I REALLY wanted) then it took another month or so to get me the second part that I had won. I do agree she has no communication skills. It would take her almost a week sometimes to email back, unless I had some negative stuff written in it, then it would be ASAP. Every time I would ask about my total, she would ask again what I won, the total of them, and the item numbers. I was doing her job for her, she should know what was won. She over does it with the number of items she places and gets lost in it all.
I can say I will not bid on anything she has to offer again due to the sour taste she left in my mouth over the long dealings I had before...
Patrick A. Riley 03-11-2003, 10:08 AM It appears as if she has been getting better. At least I saw that in some of her feedback

Kir Kanos 03-12-2003, 09:14 AM I must agree with godzilla, I won an auction for night raven parts, and the communication was bad. I did receive the items after 10 days, but as it turns out, I live within 5 minutes of her...I don't think Ill go through her again.
crimsonscarlet 03-19-2003, 10:40 PM I won three lots back in December and never received them ... she finally issued me a full refund in late January ... but the damage has been done ...
"caveat emptor"
themoney75 03-25-2003, 02:20 PM i won some things form her she sent mine took about eight days figures were great. but never reply to any emails i sent only trouble i had.
ImaWalkingCorpse 04-11-2003, 02:13 PM Looks like Oryeman really wants to sell GI Joe's.. Gonna run his selling capabilites into the ground before it even gets started
Yup, way to make a great first impression. I have a pair of shoes smarter than you my friend.
I find it amusing that you have said about ten times now in various posts that we all need to get a life (proving that must be the only attempted insult that you know), yet you are on here posting right along with us. Does that mean you need a life to, or is that contradiction lost on you? Anyone that comes onto a website as a new member and just starts cursing and insulting established memebers and then starts defending bad traders is a moron, plain and simple. You're just proving what I said about my shoes, but feel free to dig your hole deeper. You've already had one account unregistered, how about another? :D
Short-Fuse 04-12-2003, 05:45 AM Give me a break. :rolleyes:
dockingbay97 04-12-2003, 06:27 AM Something weird is going on here.
orye75 comes on this board and says some things that gets him banned.
Then immediately comes oryeman who isn't much better - still very negative on the board.
Then after he sticks up for thescarlettrooster, she shows up telling us to get a life.
Neither of these two has great feedback on eBay. The fact that thescarlettrooster has 33 negatives is enough reason for buyers to warn other buyers. That is the purpose of this board.
I would argue that people with shady selling history and the feedback that reflects that - are the "ignorant" ones.

rottenyolk 04-12-2003, 02:44 PM I knew that guy gave him the link.
That's the only reason why the seller found this place.
snakestorm526 04-12-2003, 08:57 PM I DID NOT PROVIDE THIS FOOL WITH THE LINK TO THIS SITE... THE ONLY PEOPLE I GAVE THIS LINK WAS TO THOSE THAT CONTACTED ME SO THAT THEY COULD HELP PROVE MY POINT ABOUT THIS GUY
Short-Fuse 04-14-2003, 02:10 PM Well, I did finally received the items I won off of her a while back. I assumed I would get them quick since she lives in Texas too. It looks like I slipped by with a legit deal...........this time. So perhaps you may have to wait a little while with this one, I think she is just slow. ???
Strato Trooper 04-20-2003, 08:11 AM Horrible email etiquette. Broken promises and poor communication.
Paid her in Jan for quite a few auctions i won over the course of Nov-Dec. I never received the items.
After numerous emails, she promised store credit and asked me to make more bids.
I won all the auctions i wanted in late March and asked for shipping cost (the amount i won was about equal to the store credit offered).
She's answered my emails on a 1:3 ratio (i have to send 3 and threaten her before she responds once) and promised to get me shipping cost 2 weeks ago.
Still waiting for her reply and she will not refund.
Guys, what do you think i should do??? :mad:
BadAsh 04-21-2003, 10:36 AM Strato
Same thing happen to me...
Give her a nice threatening letter how you have had it with her an will leave negative feedback for all that you have tried to purchase. usually she will respond back quick. if she doesn't in a few days, negative feedback...
ter_ran 04-23-2003, 06:55 PM I too believe that she is a bad seller because she has does not ship items out when she should and does not communicate with anyone! I also believe that she is that old seller in disguise the (soul_reaver) is it just co-incodence that they live in the same town or what? Anyways she ripped me for around 13 items I won at ebay. I dont have her phone# but I do have soul_reavers old Phone # to compare. But this is just my opinion everyone has the right to make their own at their own descression.
muskrat1978 04-24-2003, 01:24 PM I've been watching soul_reaver1 since they were T&C toys, and I am 99% sure that scarletrooster is them. They are Charles Green and his girlfriend. I was ripped off many times by them. My advice is to not buy anything from her. Can someone let me know if they are using PO Boxes?
themoney75 04-24-2003, 01:37 PM well i am 8 for 8 far as getting my stuff. she does not answer many emails but other than that fine.p.o. box dont know pay thur paypal.
Godzilla 04-25-2003, 08:34 AM Wow,
I didnt think she would post against this. (but I cannot find it now... been out of the loop a bit) I just wrote what I think about her selling practices and results of my dealings with her.
To those who have not gotten your items from her:
Now the way to deal with her if you have not received your items is to send her a threatening email which states she either tells you where the item is or you get the refund. At the time, there was snow storm in the east coast, so I gave her a benefit of the doubt but after not replies of my email afterwards, I demanded she responded to me within 24 hours of the email sent. Ok, 24 hours maybe too short but heck, she ignored 4 emails after my threat email in a span of a week. What did I do after 24 hours? I did what said in the last email: I posted negative feedback on ebay. Then reported her to Ebay authorities. Then I went to my paypal account made a complaint. If you are paying via paypal, make sure you do it within a month or you won't be able to get the refund.
To scarlettroster and oyreman (or whoever):
I am sorry you think we need to get a life. Most of us do have a life. Maybe it is YOU that need to get a life. We do this as a hobby. Obviously you do this as a business because I see many of you auctions, auctions I stay well away from. Maybe you need to change the line of work? Customer service is obviously not your strength. So you have a couple of good auctions with some ppl but with ME, you lost me as your customer. As I said before, I would have bought a lot from you but reading here before (there was a post about you earlier than me) I took one chance and YOU BLEW IT. Since I used this place to help me warn of sellers like you, I think it is only fair that I give back to this place to warn other buyers.
Felix P. Stratton 02-13-2004, 09:19 AM :cool: I'm new here to the board though I've been collecting JOES for a long time and have around 1500 loose figures. I was trying to find someinfo on another seller when I decided to look in on this one and I can't believe how horible this person is as a seller. Her negatives would be a lot higher if people who left marked nuetral and left a very dissatisfied comment would have marked negative instead. I saw several who hadn't received their items and they marked nuetral instead of negative and i see nothing worse than not receiving your item. I also noticed that she tends to blame everyone else for her delivery and communications problems and she also seems to think that people should call her instead of e-mail her. I'm just curious if she's going to pay the toll charges for people that call long distance. No matter what she says two months or more is way to long to have to wait for an item. I've seen people on e-bay complain about not receiving things after seven days. Personally I try to give people about two weeks so that way I don't come across as a hot head and the seller won't cringe the next time they see my name as a winning bidder. Just my two Cents on the matter. :cool:
strandedinbfe 02-19-2004, 10:10 AM Just a little FYI... The ebay seller thescarlettrooster is not the person you all are thinking it is. I dont know if any of you remember awhile back there was a GI Joe Seller on Ebay Named Charles (Chuck) Green.
(http://members.ebay.com/ws2/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=tctoys%40mindspring.com )
Well this Beth that you guys are buying from is none other than his sister. He is using her ebay account, name and address to sell his GI Joes because ebay has kicked him off more than once. All of the negatives that she has are for the same reasons that he got kicked off of ebay for. Just thought I would warn you guys. He will send out some items on time but other will take months or not at all. Just be careful!
Take care......
strandedinbfe 03-22-2004, 12:32 PM *GUYS PLEASE READ AND BEWARE*
Okay guys this boobookitty_toys is a girl named Stephanie. This would be Charles greens current girlfriend. He ruined his sisters ebay account so he had to use someone. He has been doing this for many years. He has used three previous girlfriends, his roomate, and his sister to open accounts. Not to mention that this guy has had at least two of his own ebay accounts all of which turn out the same way. Lets start with his very first ebay account:
(wickedclowns- which did ok until he broke things off with his then girlfriend and she stoped taking care of everything.)
(*shaggy2dope*- this one was his after she left. go read some of the feedback same problems as the other ones.)
(starrfaerie-used another girlfriend for this one. again read some of the negatives same stuff)
(Vulpix19- he used his roomate on this one. hell his roomate doesnt even drive and he is almost 30- this guy will use anyone- check it out. wasnt using this one very long.)
(Tctoys@mindspring.com- this one is him read about me page-also went back and checked he changed the name on this one after i started posting on here so maybe people didnt notice- new name is tctoys675c - look at negatives)
(soul_reaver1- used yet another girlfriend- but him none the less. read negatives)
(thescarlettrooster- his sisters account after he ran the last one into the ground and girlfriend left him. read the negtives on this one. This one is worse than the rest.)
(boobookitty_toys- this would be his current girlfriend. poor thing found out this one is only 18. This man is 37 years old. Anyway. they all start out great but will end up the same way)
!!!!!!!THIS IS ALL THE SAME GUY!!!!!!!
Guys go and look at the dates and the negatives. Hell look at the places that he lives they are all around the area that he lives in. It is easy to get a po box. I am only doing this so that you guys know. If you still want to buy from him that is your choice. But at least this way you have been informed of what is going on and if you ever need to get your money or stuff sent to you then you have info to send to him so that he might do it with out a big hassle. Be careful... Hate to see anyone else get ripped off by this guy.
GOOD LUCK!
any ?'s post on here and I will get back with ya....
muskrat1978 03-22-2004, 09:32 PM If you know him then post up a picture of him. The only way this guy can be taken care of is by violence. Not the type of redneck bull**** you they do in TX, but NJ style. Make him pay with pain. His ****ing girlfriend too. Don't just stop at him. Post up a pictue. Post up his address, and I'll have someone take care of it from Dallas. You guys might not get your money back, but he'll need it for his wheel chair, seeing-eye dog, and talkbox. His girlfriend will need it for the "home" she's going to be placed in. No more screwing around.
gman2 03-28-2004, 12:16 PM I have bought many things from him/her sometimes its real slow and other times its not. They have elite parts and I will continue to do busines with as long as I keep recieving
muskrat1978 03-28-2004, 09:30 PM I don't know when you people are going to get it. This person is a scam artist. I got stuff too at first but that's how he lures you in, until he can get you for bigger money. Anyone who gives this guy money is a ****in idiot. This post wouldn't be up if he were legit.

Andrew Molinari 04-13-2004, 04:06 PM Read my post regarding this person. I did not know that bad trader lists even existed. I recently sold a lot of my duplicate Joe Comics from my collection. Did I make the good trader list? No one had a problem - lol?
drveovru2 04-13-2004, 04:27 PM I dont understand, why everyone doesn't combine a list of all the things they have lost to this individual and start sueing them. i understand most people lose 5-10 dollars , but that adds up to alot when you have 100's losing money. how hard would it be to find someone in that area to go to police, and then to start a lawsuit? this person is a leech and the only way to get rid of them is to make them pay. a person can only steal so long before someone turns them in.
you can file a lawsuit, anytime, anywhere for anything in america.(doesn't mean it will hold up but you still can do it) small claims court is usally like 50 bucks, i believe everone could be named as plantiffs in one suit.(nor four sure) or just get a list of contact info from everyone like name and phone numbers and what was lost, and then get one person to present it to a local police department of some internet fraud police department. make sure you show them the amount of people affected and the dollar amount. if it is a large enough dollar amount they will take interest.
this wouldn't be that hard of a thing to do, it would just take a small effort.

muskrat1978 04-13-2004, 05:18 PM **** You. I pressed postal fraud charges on him and I was a postal employee so they did everything they could to find him, But they couldn't. I did it several times but they can't touch him. He hides under PO BOXES and uses other peoples names like his sister's, girlfriends', friends', etc. The only way we can stop him is to beat the living **** out of him and anyone else that helps this ****. I'm working on finding him. So far I tracked him and his girlfriend down. They both work for the Target on Precinct line in Hurst Texas. I even know what he looks likle from pictures I've aquired. What an ugly ****. zeig heil you stupid, redneck mother ****er, I'm going to get you! Also I'd like to add, if anyone else hasn't pressed postal charges, try doing it now while he still is using his girlfriend's PO BOX. He might not get charged, but she will, and that's what the ****ing slut deserves for helping him rip off us.

muskrat1978 04-13-2004, 05:21 PM Oh and if you need to call him, his work phone# is 1-817-282-8808. Talk to his supervisor and let him know what old Chuck is doing. Maybe if everyone who got ripped off by him and his girlfriend boobookitty_toys, he'll get fired. Don't pussy out. Let's do this!
