Ebay warning - Seller highrush416

As some here already know I got scammed by a wrecker in the US when I bought an engine for the ZX6.His Ebay ID is highrush416. It was supposed to be a good working motor but when it turned up it was a heap of shit. I won a dispute via ebay but to get my money back I had to return the engine and then if the mongrel was happy it was what he sent me I would get my money back. He was claiming that I stuffed the motor so there was no point me spending another $700 to send it back to have him reject it.
Anyway I just got a message via ebay from another guy here in Sydney who has exactly the same problem. He looked through the guys feedback and saw mine so sent me the message.
It looks like the prick gets a buyer from O/S and sends them a shit motor knowing full well there is nothing they can do about it. He can't do it in the US because someone would shoot him presumably.
I've told the guy here in Sydney I'll do whatever I can to help him or try and get this arsehole banned but who knows what will happen.
Be warned though don't buy anything from highrush416

Tell the guys on the ZRXOA, plenty of them have guns - and bigger

In fact my ol mate Ye Wilde Ryder from the ZX list has a bigger arsenal than Colin Edwards.......and Colin has shown me pics of his arsenal - he carries photos of them on his iPhone, as you do - and it's quite a collection let me assure you.

Something like this?
You know for those moments where less talk and more action is required.

In some states in the US it is illegal to conceal carry

, in other words you have to have your weapon visable - not hidden

Love the opening....
No matter whether you're a park ranger or a serious outdoorsman, having your side arm ready just makes sense.

Glen, I believe there is another alternative from our friends in Nigeria. Lets just say we do the the dishonest paypal scam and get the engine on the way and then say sorry.
Oh an if you need a credit card, may I suggest a holiday to Thailand, where you can get the necessary document to screw said f:.kwit.
BTW my bike will be dropped off on Monday week, I promise to use my credit card that has money and no you can't do wheelies with my bike to release tension, however yes you can run in the new tyres so long as there are no sissy strips
