After I paid for the wheels (7/26) I got this msg on July 27th. "Got the check AOK. Thanks. I dropped the wheels off at the local tire shop to have the old tires broken down off them, I should have them back this afternoon and shipped tomorrow. Thanks again. Matt"
I've attempted to contact via email & by phone without results. If the wheels show up or if tracking info is given to me so I can recover the property I'll apologise or do whatever I can to make things right again. I posted this so that others might use caution when buying parts from others without seeing the parts first.

I think something may have happened to Matt. I know he was dealing with some serious problems. He may be slow at times, but I do not believe he would rip you off.

Being that this is a public forum you never really know who your dealing with. Someone that may come across as a great guy on this or any other forum may be cruising these sites looking for more potential victims. Im sure that this site is no different then others as we have no way of knowing just who these people could be. As this hobby of ours involves big money it's a good chance that there are some here. Not pointing fingers, but as always it's buyer beware.

I'm not siding with anyone in this thread,but lets be patient to pass Judgement.
I mean God forbid,if Something FATALLY WRONG has happened to Matt L.,wouldn't this thread look to be in rather Bad taste of that current situation?
No disrespect meant to anyone.

I also share your concern for Matts well being. I always enjoyed reading his posts on this site &amp; I felt we had a good rapport when discussing the transaction. When we last spoke he told me he was fine (no cancer). He also requested that I overnight the check so that he could buy a crossram intake as he didn't want to lose it. I did so reluctantly and expected my goodies within a normal shipping timeframe &amp; I'm still hoping that they're lost in UPS/FED EX land somewhere. I asked for this tracking info several times before I posted but never got a response.
Matt knows how to reach me so, why don't we kill this thread? Whatever happens...happens.
