WARNING! Do NOT deal with Richard Gergis II

Richard R Gergis II of West Bloomfield MI

I sent him my W202 headlamps/turn signals/bulbs/connectors. He paid me wiht a cheque on 7/01/2005 for $240. he CANCELS the cheque. I e-mailed him and he said that he didn't want them. So since then until now, I've been waiting for my products back!!!!!!

DO NOT DEAL WITH HIM! He found me here on mbworld. When I have time, I'll file the small claims form for the courthouse of West Bloomfield MI.

by the way, I mailed them COD to him, that's why I got the cheque (instead of paypal or money order). I mailed them COD for the buyer's SAFETY! no more COD transactions for me!

If you sent them via US Mail, aka Parcel Post, you can go after him for postal fraud.
