Losi King does not exist as a member on this site. I even did a generic search for losi......and king.

I guess I should have done some research first. Apparently dealing with the Barth brothers might be a mistake. I paid for a trinity battery bag on the 26th. Paid to GPman18@aol.com using Paypal. No bag yet, and no reply to emails. Lucky it was only $15.00. I hope I get the bag, maybe Tim will come through. But after reading some messages in here I am not holding my breath. Lesson learned I guess.

Which Tuesday? The Tuesday I paid for it? Or the the Tuesday that just passed? By the way who are you Hyperdrive 101. I can't understand why Tim could not contact me himself. I sent him an email, all he had to do is respond.

A week to get to the post office? That seems kind of slow to me. Oh well I just hope I get it. He should deal with people directly. Instead of using a middle man.

I post here on a public board for a reason. I think everyone here should be able to read about it. That way they can make an educated decision about dealing with Tim in the future. This is the only way to keep traders honest. And If and when I get the bag I will make a post. Letting everyone know how it played out.

are these the Barth Bros from N.J........They continue to be banned..
they continue to keep rejoining..I was almost swindled twice by them..
they blame eachother for eachother swindle.. :mad: ..I wish I raced at thier LHS...I would have some fun with them :devil: ......I caught one of them attempting to do a trade with me under a different screen name...
for some tires....Had money order in hand and ready to send them when
the scam was uncovered....The dummies use different screen names and leave good feedback on the screen name they have a swindle set up with......What they need is to be prosecuted :eek: .
.
I hope these guys get what they deserve......I wish you luck in getting your bag..I know they are several on this board who have been screwed by them..I think the other Brother is thomb?

These boys are from Rochester,IN. They race at one of my local tracks
and they scammed the owner out of a ESC. They gave him $5.00 towards it and has not paid anymore of it. That was last year. They do not realize I work with the owner of that track and they keep saying they paid him. So, all they do is lie over and over. All I have to do is ask the owner if he got paid and he tells me NO everytime they say the have paid him.
The worst problem is they change user names every week it seems like.

So, everyone beware!! :mad:

Brando,
Hope you get your stuff. If not, email me and I will take care of the problem if I see them.

And they wonder why people won't deal with them. One of the barth brothers e mailed me about a car that I have and just wanted the chassis. Why would I tear down a perfect car and sell just the chassis?? I wouldn't and not may people would. I have seen the Barth brothers have ripped off alot of people on the boards and hank has banned them more than once but they just can't get the picture that they are not wanted on this board because they can't be trusted for anything unless you want to be ripped off. BUYER BEWARE!!!!

just so you guys are aware. in grneral when the barths sell something, they ship it......eventually..LOL!
took TIM & months to make good on the first purchase I maid from him.
After awhile I felt he had grown up some.
again it tok a coupl threats, and reporting to paypal to get the items shipped.
appearently, thye sell to be able to grab something they wat, and spend ALL the money on that wanted item.
then have no cash to send the item they sold.
I spoke with several of my friends who bought from them with in a 5 week period. all of us were like pulling teeth to get what we bought.
ALL of us got the same lame story verbatum..."For some weird reason the post office sent it back to me" but it comes to us, in a pristine package with no multiple postal cancelations, or tape overs...and the bare minimum postal rate.
trying to keep them out of here..HANK if your reading, it will probably take working with AOL or others..TIM seamed proud to tell me he knew how to "cheet" aol out of paying for a conection somehow, buy manipulating his computer or something, and useing "endless" free trial disks.
OH and last but not least, they have the "act" of each blaming the other for what is being done, on the other brother to the degree of being worthy of an Acadamy award!

Even though Im happy that a fellow New England Racer got his item
FINALLY shipped to him I still think these two need a good "talking"
too.........Also...the peaple who ran with these morons..and the hobbyshop owners that allow these 2 to race at thier local Hobby store
should all Ban them...if they cant race anywhere...they will no longer
visit these boards....

here is a letter i received a few days ago from Tim Barth....


"Dear Hankster, Northerner,

This is Tim Barth here. I'm E mailing you in regards to hobby-talk. We have Contacted AOL. To have all over are Servers shut off and blocked. This is the Only E mail i have. and it is throw www.aol.com. Cant even get into AOL. not even going to try. I will Right her Promise you that we are Done. I had a long talk with Tom about this. he agreed to it and i also am.
We are Taking care of all the stuff. I know i have paid off 2 people that tom has messed with. We Both have learned that this was wrong. we learn from are mistake i guess. But we are Truly Sorry for this inconvenience.. I cant Stress how much we are sorry for all this. We are Not going to come back to any boards. We have learned if there is any way we can sign a agreement about this it would be truly thankful.
Thanks
Timothy.

heh heh.. is that letter supposed to be from his dad or something? that is the worst grammar i have ever seen, it doesnt even make sense."We have learned if there is any way we can sign a agreement about this it would be truly thankful." what? who would be thankful? certainly no one who has been ripped off. someone keeps IMing me and my friend, wanting to sell us an esc, i asked him who he was, and he said, "Tim Barth, jk." and just now in a chat, they said "why do u think im tim barth, i dont want you to think that, i feel the pain of the people ripped off." that somehow makes me think he has something to hide... and he also changes his age and types with the stereotypical kid "u" "b4" you know, typical AOL chat. also, he had a "previous client" IM me, strangely enough...they both had the same profile and were from the same city and state...

Just in case someone is thinking of trying to deal with one of them. I got an order noticication emailed to me from me web site yesterday evening.
$450 worth of stuff.
Phone #: not in service at this time, no details available.
address: according to Yahoo maps does not exist.
Yahoo return email: returned non existant.
seems since I blew the whistle they want to play games.
silly part is, whichever one did it, used his real name and spelled THAT right.
LOL!...(loosers, on land!) :dude:

oval4ever i have to agree what does it take to get rid of these two? you ban 1 screename and he does not care he has fifty. and if you do go through them all they just create more. HMMM. i have my opinions but i refuse to post here. it makes me wonder why people like myself ever serve in the military, we defend this nation (and others) just to be stepped on and to give rights to people like the barth brothers just for them to screw people over. that is completely wrong. in fact let us just box them up send them to iraq with no training and let the terrorists take care of them, and if they were to come back they might have an appreciation for the their fellow man. oh well i am sorry to say that because of those 2 and there activities i would be wary of dealing with anyone in that area, for deals: trade they send first, sell i have full payment (after seeing if it other party owned item free and clear), purchase never.

i had several AIM conversations on a possible trade with one of the names listed above.. and the user wanted me to send my item first so that they could "take a look" at it before sending me their items. i wont mention the name nor make any statement that it is possibly this "tim" person, but.. it was too hokey
for my liking. i passed.

anyway.. ill keep my eyes and ears open and keep a watchful eye.
