    Should have PM'd me for my paypal address. You could have sent me the $78 instead and I would have found someone local to kick you in the nuts. Win win for everyone.

    In a completely unrelated occurrence, according to the current edition of the " Trans-Ocean Gazette and Scam Alert News" a recent article described a hijacked container destined to a suspicious hobby item vendor that was "lost" in transit. Authorities are tracing sold items from the shipment in order to arrest and charge those receiving what is considered stolen property. Zoom - Zoom

    It might just be a 4.8" Rockstar brought to you by the creators of this Stonehenge

    I talked to one of the buyers a couple days ago and they sent him a cheap a$$ 13" boat....now he is entangled with PayPal apparently ......I think the saga continues

    ya get what you pay for....well..... he wishes

    review the product and company before you buy.....not afterwards

    For those that like to gloat.....I never received the "Rockstar 48".........they did send me a 13" POS RC boat that I'll end up giving away. Paypal made the whole deal right and I was reimbursed the total amount...Paypal is very good to deal with and provides excellent protection. It took a while to resolve this issue.....but I didn't lose in the end.
    So be it.....I have learned to stay clear of ANY products offered for sale on Facebook. It can be a scam and the same product can often be available from legitimate vendors and better pricing.
    cheers

    I feel compelled to comment - not to gloat or say something funny, but to express my hard core disappointment that this kind of scamming has penetrated what is by far one of the best hobbies ever - a safe haven amidst a world full of bad choices - especially for our kids. I'd love to meet this guy - the Rockstar Boat fraudster. Just for a moment........
