To the guy *****ing about the Defiant. Do you have any clue who you even delt with? I have never owned, sold, or even seen a defiant in person. Stop tring to stir up crap. You are either an idiot or a liar. Which is it?

\r\n \r\n

\r\n

\r\n

I may be wrong but I\'m 99.9999999% positive it was you. It was a lot, one near complete defiant, an extra booster and shuttle. The b.i.n. was $50+ $25 for shipping. then you never replied to any messages,and I never recieved the stuff. I was pretty ****ed about it, as that was going to be the present for my 14th birthday. Basically, YOU are the idiot AND liar!
\r\n
\r\noh, and btw, thanks for the nice birthday\r\n \r\n

[Bad Bob Man]

\r\n \r\n I have never dealt with you, or sold a defiant on ebay. I\'m not one who is afraid to tell it how it is. Why don\'t you post your proof, auction link, or anything. Be ready to look like a fool though.\r\n \r\n

I would gladly give a link, but the auction is over 3 months old so it won\'t show.\r\n \r\n

\r\n \r\n Just bought an auction BIN from Bob Bohanon recently 83-85 Cobra Army builder lot c9 - eBay (item 200543414521 end time Nov-14-10 08:35:20 PST)
\n
\nI recieved a package of figures that was not mine and before this even got to me he was asking that I send it back because it was the wrong order well yeah I know I could not file a claim concerning this because he used a tracking number to ship. I recieved 5 Crimson Guards and Tomax/Xamot from him theres no way Im sending anything back to BOBMAN period feel lucky I got anything at all. I gave him a ruse feedback after our correspondence and am done with the post/him at this point thanks man I think I may have actually came out on top of the infamous BOBMAN and you deserve it if i did man PERIOD!!!...\r\n \r\n

\r\n

It might be nice to at the very least try to figure out who those figures were for and send them to the person, especially if your figures show up.\r\n \r\n

[Kentuckyman]

\r\n \r\n I did send the figures back to Robert Bohanon via priority w/dc 0306 0320 0000 9683 5274 that cost me an extra $6 almost please tell me why I should have to have done this at all man and wherein is my compensation for his mistake NOT MINE especially with bob bohanon. This guy has conducted business like this long before you were ever around Yojoe man so my thoughts is that you have never been burnt by a caan artist like bobman and had that bad soured taste in your mouth personally. Hes screwed multiple people on these boards and has at least several known IDs banned from eBay for the same conduct, here at Yojoe hes on permaban. I posted the post above to warn others what was potentially going on and that he is back also and that he may be at it again. I dont know what else to say really this particular deal with bobman that I had is complete his package did arrive back and I will not be dealing with said ID pepesdad369 on eBay ever again. So to answer your question yes I did try not only try but did \r\n \r\n

[rebelbabe]

\r\n \r\n The crimes that have been committed here are a bit more serious than breaking eBay policy or stealing $30 bucks from someone.
\n
\nBy using the internet and the United State Postal Service in the commission of a theft the individual has upped the anty to a felony and federal crime. The local authority may take some interest but it needs to be reported to your local authority, and also reported to the federal authorities through this link:
\n
\nInternet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) | Home
\n
\nThank you to the previous member for also posting this. It was lost in the the rapid fire discussion.
\n
\nThere is strength in numbers so by all means include information about this thread and any others (and eBay) as they all have additional information regarding potential \'transaction issues\'.
\n
\nIt seems you all have a great deal of evidence; emails, money order receipts, eBay listings (yes, eBay can produce all historical information for federal investigations, bans, profiles, sales, comments, feedback and conversations between parties, complaints, etc). With as many individuals as just this small thread has I have no doubt there are many \'under the tip of the iceberg\'.
\n
\nIt takes one well written and documented complaint and a theft report to your local authority so they have a contact there.
\n
\nEnjoy.\r\n \r\n

HE"S A MOTHER FRICKER!!! I bought 2 defiants off him for 75 bucks on ebay...nothing came, that was like 10 months ago

\r\n \r\n

\r\n

\r\n

Not taking sides here, but when there\'s an auction like this that seems way too cheap for what it is, be very careful. Generally if something seems to good to be true, it often is.\r\n \r\n

[Scrapiron-Scavanger]

\r\n \r\n Well Bobman, that is an awesome idea of not buying from you, if only you did not hide behind so many different names and do not list your location on e-bay so we can avoid you.
\n
\nAnd you are a theif when you charge for Priority shipping and send 1st class.
\n
\n
\nBTW you are welcome for the neg I just left you.

[Mindbender M.D.]

\r\n \r\n I am sorry to hear about your situation Nevermore and appreciate the link. I think we however did not get screwed because we did not send any money to this human. I wonder if there is a way to ban this person for good?
\n
\n
\n-R\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n well I guess that depends on what you consider getting screwed. If you sent some figures in a trade and he doesn\'t send his side and he keeps yours then in my opinion you got screwed.
\n
\nAs you can see by his posts after screwing people he is actually proud of what he does.
\n
\nThey keep banning his individual names but he keeps coming back. I think I heard somewhere they couldn\'t permanately ban him bc he was on aol and it would ban all aol users. I might be totally off but I remember hearing something like that sometime.\r\n \r\n

[Urban Saboteur]

\r\n \r\n He really should be arrested by now..
\nA guy who scams that much just isn\'t commiting mail fraud.. and for people who generally respect the law .. its them that have to suffer the consequences..
\nsadly until something serious is done about this guy.. anyone knew to buying and anyone who doesnt know that name will be at risk.
\nRobert Bohanon.. remember the name.. Gish.. It\'s hard not to forget after seeing his name so much in the forums.. \r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n There should be a sticky at the top of the trades section warning people about Robert Bohanon. That way any new people that come in and aren\'t familiar w/the situation don\'t get screwed. Thats what he waits for. Lets a little time pass, lets some new people in and then hits and runs. What about it MODS? Could we get a sticky?\r\n \r\n

[Derek2783]

\r\n \r\n I edited the title of the thread, we should be able to just sticky it now, right?\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n honestly if you are contacted by someone without references it is on you to do some homework before proceeding.
\r\n
\r\nsearch his address or his names and you will find all you need to know.
\r\n
\r\nin the future that is what i would suggest\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n True... but many new people don\'t know all the do\'s and don\'ts of trading. They see a whole forum doing it and think everything is legit. We know Mr. and Mrs. Bohanon are POS and will be back to try again and again so why not at least attempt to save some people from being ripped off. If anything at least he won\'t be getting as much stolen stuff from everyone. If people know about him and stop trading with him then perhaps he finally will go away.\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n the best bet is to use the good bad traders list.
\r\n
\r\nan invaluable resource here.
\r\n
\r\nif they arent on there then dont do the deal\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n Like I said...good advice but we\'re not solving the problem. Unless you are going to send this message to every new person that comes on you\'re only preaching to the converted. Thus only helping the people that don\'t really need any help.
\n
\nWe know he will be back and try to rip off some people so why not make a sticky about him instead of just another thread to be buried and eventually linked to AFTER someone gets ripped off? Ask the last few people that got ripped off by him if a sticky with his name would have been useful.\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n we are not the police here and cannot sticky a thread like that.
\r\n
\r\npeople need to take a proactive approach to trading and check on who they are dealing with unless they have established creds.\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n the problem rich is that to few actually do check on who they are dealing with.
\r\n
\r\nits simple really. do you leave your money with just anyone or do you trust an established bank?
\r\n
\r\nits impossible to keep a stickied list on bad dealers because no one can agree on the criteria for such a list.\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n Again...great advice but obviously not doing a damn thing about the problem. He keeps coming back and he keeps ripping people off. How many more times does he get to do this, ripping people off left and right for their stuff, before you realize that IT IS NOT WORKING! If it is not working then perhaps something new should be tried.
\n
\nYou\'re right we are not the police. U know why? Because the police (at least the Wichitaw KS police) don\'t give a damn about him ripping us off and refuse to do anything about it. We should not be like them. We should care about our fellow collectors and try to do something about it.
\n
\nI really don\'t see your logic here Curt. You are basically enabling Robert Bohanon to continue doing this to people. You\'re right too few people do check the good/bad lists. So your solution is to say "Just check the lists."??? How is that a solution? U just said no one checks it so its not much of a help in a situation like this now is it?
\n
\nI\'m not saying to constantly advertise every bad trader but this is a special case. One that keeps coming back and ripping people off so we need a constant reminder. I\'d rather have people know about him than have them get that negative attitude towards trading AFTER being ripped off by him. U know what I mean?\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n you know what would help. putting bobman robert bohannon on the master good bad traders list
\r\n
\r\nthen the name will be seen and ring bells
\r\n
\r\n
\r\nand saying im enabling him is laughable. ask nick about how often i alert the yojoe site to bobmans crap
\r\n
\r\nthe fact of the matter is your asking for the yojoe admin and mod staff to police a list that no one can agree on.
\r\n
\r\nyour asking them to babysit traders and buyers/sellers when they have a hard enough time maintaining the content here.
\r\n
\r\nit is not the yojoe staffs job to monitor trades/deals. it is the responsibility of the people involved in that activity to watch out for their own safety.
\r\n
\r\ni think bobman is scum of the lowest order but that doesnt change the fact that you are wanting something that just wont happen. unless the yojoe staff change their own minds about this topic.
\r\n
\r\na stickied list is a good idea. i like it myself. i have been doing this for 7 years now and can add a lot of names to it lol.
\r\n
\r\nmaybe we can do a poll for the stickied list? if we get a vast majority to ok the list and then can agree on guidelines maybe we can make it happen.\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n Oh and another thing Curt, when I got ripped off by him the good/bad trader section wasn\'t very helpful because he had positive feedback. What he did was created a new name and the completed a few trades so that he had positive feedback and then all of a sudden turned around and ripped a bunch of us at once. So I did check his feedback. I took your advice and got ripped off. Now had a sticky been up w/his real name I would have known who I was really dealing with when I addressed his package.
\n
\nSince he changes names the good/bad trader list is pretty ineffective. You go on there scroll down to whatever name he is now using and there probably won\'t be bad feedback. There will either be good feedback or no feedback. He is banned once bad feedback starts showing up.\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n Now I am confused...you were arguing against a stickied list now you are saying that one is a good idea?
\r\n
\r\nThe big problem is when you make a trade w/someone and look up their feedback you don\'t see their real name on that list what you see is their forum name. By the time you get the person\'s real name most people are already addressing their envelopes or writing out their MO\'s. Hardly anyone I think would go back and look up the name of the real person by that time.
\r\n
\r\nIf we put his name on the master list I doubt many will actually see it with all the hundreds of other traders on it. People will just scan looking for whoever they are about to trade with and never really notice Robert Bohanon (unless it is made to stand out somehow).
\r\n
\r\nBut if we had a sticky at the top w/his name people would probably remember seeing it and double check and would spare them from dealing with the POS.
\r\n
\r\nI understand there\'s a good chance it won\'t happen. If the mods don\'t want it then its out but I think it should be there and I would venture to say quite a few others share my views.\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n kicking attitude at me isnt helping.
\r\n
\r\nim telling you how things work here. your asking for a severe rule change. ive given you ideas on how to change them.
\r\n
\r\nkeep treating me like im the bad guy bud. im trying to help and your being a bit rude now.
\r\n
\r\nits not my fault you got screwed by bobman. its not yojoes fault either. you sent a lot of money to a guy with 4 posts on here. that should have been red flag number 1.
\r\n
\r\nyou want some changes made to the system here then follow some steps i laid out. dont post him is duck sausade or crimguardforce but post his bad deals on the master list as bobman or robert bohhanon.
\r\n
\r\nwant a stickied list? youll need a majority vote on a poll and some serious campaiging and planning before the mods will aloow it.
\r\n
\r\ndont crawl on my case for spelling things out.\r\n \r\n

[BIGFAN]

\r\n \r\n no i wast arguing against it. i was telling you it wont happen. unless the members here do some serious campaigning for it\r\n \r\n

[nevermore]

\r\n \r\n Curt I\'m not trying to treat you like the bad guy...sorry if you are taking it like that.
\r\n
\r\nWhat I am saying is what you are suggesting just isn\'t working and it is going to continue not working. So something else should be tried.
\r\n
\r\nYou kept saying to check the list so I am trying to explain to you why the lists didn\'t work for me and why others will have difficulty when it comes to Robert Bohanon and the lists.
\r\n
\r\nI seem to have misunderstood your position. I thought when you said "We\'re not the police here" that you were saying we shouldn\'t have a sticky because we aren\'t the police.
\r\n
\r\nLike I said it is up to the mods, I\'m stating my position on it. If others agree with me then cool. If not then when a mod comes in and says "No" then its over. I\'ll just go back to trading and watch out for Robert Bohanon and leave everyone to fend for themselves.
\r\n
\r\nAnd just for the record I didn\'t send a lot of $ to him. I sent like $5 and some figs.\r\n \r\n

\r\n \r\n Rob is right on one point, we did not get screwed (the original 3). It does not mean he is not a ***** and a general petty thief. He will get his sooner than later.
