Also chakes89, I told godwulf the same thing that I would rather trade the Parker as I am really not sure what I want to do with it. I really didnt take you seriously after your several offers and then you were rude to me in another email. So if I decide to sell it, its going to godwulf because he asked first anyways.

Got everything shipped the other day and sent out emails this morning to everyone with delivery confirmation numbers, if you didnt get an email lmk.

He did send me an brief email this morning with only a USPS tracking number. I am uncertain if is the number for a package sent to me:

"Just found it, here you go. USPS 0308 0660 0000 8397 4057"
Unless I am reading it incorrectly, USPS says the package was accepted yesterday afternoon at Racine, WI. JT said the package was mailed over a week ago. My last email from him (before today) was sent on June 5th and said only, "Kind of unorganized here, got your tracking info but need to find where I put the slip."

So does it look like this package was accepted at Racine and is on its way to MN, or does it mean the package was delivered to Racine yesterday and he just sent me the wrong number?

My PayPal payments to him were deposited/cleared for his account on 5/27/09 - 5/26/09 -

cordovacollector
06-09-2009, 01:22 PM
doggon, I hit Sumbit by accident .... :mad:

Again my PayPal payments to him were accepted/cleared into his account on 5/20/09 - 5/26/09 - 5/27/09

This could all be due to bad timing and that we were working on another sale of bats, so I do want to give him the benefit of the doubt. But I decided to wait on buying more until I saw the first buys delivered.

If all goes well, I'll be the first to post here and say so. But because he is so new, I think we've got the jitters until he proves himself.

Rich also played in the Arizona system for Triple-A Tucson in '07. I've got a bat - not for sale, sorry - that he used as a non-roster invitee to Spring Training that year, a black Louisville Slugger I13. If you'd be interested, I could let you know if I run across another.

You all want to know why your having problems with this guy. Please check out other post on member by the username uwmrules09. Midwestfan09 changed his username from uwmrules09. JT what games are you playing now. I had nothing but problems with JT recently I bought several jersys from him a couple of months ago and he promised me that the jerseys had LOA's for them. When I bought the jersey he said he would send me the LOA's and he never dd. After sometime went by he then told me he never had any LOA's and still to this day I never received the LOA's. I'm just warning you to stay away nothing but PROBLEMS. Like I said check out past post on JR Towler. GOOD LUCK with you items!!

Not that I know this person or have any involvement, but banning is probably not a good idea. I was (still kinda am) an admin at a sports card trading forum and when something like this happened everybody wanted to ban the person immediately. If they are banned how are they supposed to communicate with the members affected or the mods/admins?

Just throwing it out there. Obviously something is VERY fishy about the whole situation, and a banning may be necessary in the future. But, the fact that one member got their purchase just yesterday and the others are supposedly in the mail means that there should be a few more days given. All that being said though, I certainly would've also filed my Paypal disputes today as ordovaollector did!

Just my .02

Hope it ends up working out for everybody!!

Speaking as someone who still has money on the line out there, and who has been promised a shipping confirmation number later today, I would like to suggest that JT be given a chance to redeem himself on this board.

As someone else stated, if the man is "booted", communication pretty much ceases...but, more importantly, at least from my perspective and that of those who've made purchases not yet received, the Seller's incentive to follow through on those sales diminishes greatly.

If I get the promised confirmation number later today, and the bats that I paid for in good time, I will help JT rebuild his reputation here in whatever way I can, and may even buy from him in the future. I think that's only fair.

cordovacollector
06-11-2009, 11:41 AM
Agreed, Godwulf!

How many others are out there in limbo who have paid for items from his three IDs and have not received them? Speak up and help the rest of us, please.

I had 5 separate transactions under two of the IDs. None have arrived.

http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum/showthread.php?t=19587&highlight=Uwmrules09

This seller has had plenty of chances to redeem himself in the past, yet it's the same story over and over. He made a deal with people and accepted their money. Whether or not he's allowed to continue posting here should have no bearing on his obligation to honor those deals, imo.

Mr.3000
06-11-2009, 12:02 PM
I'm sorry, I can't believe what I'm reading. Give a chance to redeem himself? You would buy from him again? To each their own I suppose. It's clear this guy has used and is using multiple ID's, multiple email addresses and multiple aliases. It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to see that those are obvious red flags that point to someone being a thief. As for those who have had good deals with him......that's how good Internet thieves work...they complete a few deals so that they make themselves seem trustworthy all the while ripping others off under the guise of many aliases, ID's and emails. And in my experience one thing always remains true...once a thief, ALWAYS a thief. Cordova, if you have solid proof that all 5 bad deals are him...I suggest contacting your local authorities..and his...and file a complaint for theft & fraud.

3000 ~

Working on the proof and checking to see how many OTHER IDs he may still have out there that we haven't found yet.

I have escalated all 5 of my PayPal purchases to Claims, so at least I think my money is protected ... although tied up!!!

Let's get some other eyes diggin' in here!!! Rat 'em out!

MarinersFan34
06-11-2009, 01:55 PM
I should have known.. something seemed familiar with the seller but I couldn't place it at the time. It's too bad now though as I purchased 2 items from him and was told it would be sent right away.

Paid on the 27th of May, almost a week later I'm told on June 2nd there was a delay but they are being sent priority mail the next day (weds. June 3rd)

Guess what still has not arrived as of today June 11th.

I never got any DC info and that is the slowest priority mail there is, even ups ground moves faster and they are slooooow.

Guess it's time to make it an official claim.

The problem we'll face though and please correct me if I'm wrong, but.. PayPal can freeze his account, sure. If he's already transfered the money out which I can only assume he has then we're S.O.L. and paypal can lock out what money if any is remaining. I don't know if we'll get anything back unless you used a credit card then you can go dispute that with your cc company.

I understand things come up in life and whatnot and it may take longer to actually get something shipped out. I've had my own share of that but with multiple id's and the number of folks affected, his lack of explanation/communication.. I don't see why he should be a member here any longer.

GUU IDs:

UMWrules09

UPDATE: Today YankeesFan09 provided a fake USPS Tracking number to the PayPal Claims Investigating Dept. So I guess that answers the question of whether he is also part of this scam.

Mr.3000
06-12-2009, 12:02 AM
I will say this. I know the name UMWrules09 from several sports card collecting sites. He is a known thief.


Google that ID and the name Toler and see what pops up.

Mr.3000
06-12-2009, 12:13 AM
Not sure if this is anything...

UMWrules09 more than likely is refering to University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, Va.

Whitepages.com has a Jim Toler listed in Fredericksburg, Va on Ridge Pointe Lane. Not sure if that address matches up with any known address for the J Toler that people are dealing with here.

If so, check whitepages.com and good "Jim Toler Virginia" for more information.....phone number, street address...etc

Mr.3000
06-12-2009, 12:25 AM
Jim Toler of Ridge Pointe Lane Fredericksburg, Va lives approx. 8 min. or 3.5 miles from the University of Mary Washington (UMW = UMWrules09).


The local police dept. that handles that area is :


Fredericksburg Police Dept. (540) 654-5730




Again, all of my information could be mere coincedence. I don't believe in coincedence.

Mr.3000
06-12-2009, 01:02 AM
Helen,


I think you very well might be dealing with 2 or more seperate individuals there.


The email "raytownkid09"...refers to Raytown, Missouri. That could easily coincide with the email "Midwestfan09".

The only way that someone from MO and VA would be connected is if a thief is using a relatives address out of state to commit his thefts/fraud.

It's not far fetched either. I've seen it happen all too often.

cordovacollector
06-12-2009, 01:02 AM
Wow!! Way to go, Mr. 3000!

Come on guys, help us out. Let's smoke these rats out of their holes and off this board. If he has three IDs, 4 names, 5 emails .... we are likely only scratching the surface.

No call for a witch hunt though. Let's keep looking for the facts and "coincidences!"

Thank you! It was feeling kinda lonely out here tilting at windmills!

06-12-2009, 01:04 AM
Could UMWrules09 be connected to Missouri? Say Univ. of Missouri W___??

cordovacollector
06-12-2009, 01:29 AM
Somehow I got a typo on the list!!!

The actual ID is: UWMrules09

Now could this be University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee?

I asked MidwestFan09 about Racine (where one of the confirmation numbers said a package was mailed from) and he sent an iPhone message:

"Yeah I live here when I am not in school, when I am in school I live in Milwaukee"

So I am thinking at least MidwestFan09 and UWMrules09 might both be in Wisconsin, if not the same fellow: JT Toler, JR Toler, J Toler. He provided me with:

USPS Tracking Number:
Label Number: 0308 0660 0000 8397 4057
Shipment Activity Location Date & Time
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Acceptance RACINE WI 53404 06/08/09 2:18pm


YankeesFan09 is connected with the names Steve Rodger and Jim/James Sutphin. He provided PayPal with the USPS tracking number of:




Tracking Company: USPS


Tracking Number: 03083390000067381333 (which doesn't work)

Mr.3000
06-12-2009, 02:14 AM
Helen,

You are correct. It is Unv. of Mil. Wis.


3am now. I will track down any local J Toler and their information tomorrow.


I small typo still led to a string off eery coincedences.


One thing I'd like to add. If this individual was on the up and up (which it is SO clear he is not) he would have responded to these posts by now with some sort of explanation.....he has not.

Mr.3000
06-12-2009, 02:18 AM
Quick check before bed shows there is a Gail Toler in Racine on Sand Hill Rd. There is also a James R Toler at the residence. Phone and full address available at whitepages.com.

cordovacollector
06-12-2009, 03:18 AM
Thanks, 3000!

I am calling it a day too.

It looks like MidwestFan09 and YankeesFan09 have the same ISP address. I plan to call my ISP tomorrow to verify it. If true, that would link: J Toler - Steve Rodgers - James Sutphin - MidwestFan09 - YankeesFan09

And we can link him to UWMrules09 because he admitted it to me in an email: When I asked if he was YankeesFan09, he said:

"No I am not, the only two ids I ever used were midwestfan09 and uwmrules09. I never used that Yankees id."

But the ISP address are the same for Midwest and Yankees so I guess we have him identified there as being all three, since he admits to being Midwest and UWM.




Does anyone out there have an old emails from him? That way we could confirm the third ISP address. His email addresses are:
tolerjr@yahoo.com (yahoo.commidwestfan09@yahoo.com) - need ISP
midwestfan09@yahoo.com (yahoo.comraytownkid09@yahoo.com) - (I have this ISP)
raytownkid09@yahoo.com (yahoo.comreb2351@yahoo.com) - need ISP
reb2351@yahoo.com (yahoo.comjimsutphin@bex.net) - (I have this ISP)
jimsutphin@bex.net (jimsutphin@bex.net) - need ISP

Another thing to check out is something I found on Google:
"A former Indianapolis Police Department officer charges there is disorganization and dissention within the department, and that Police Chief James Toler lacks the authority afforded former chiefs."If we are dealing with a James Toler, Jr., it might be interesting to see if this could be a family member. How far is Indianapolis from Milwaukee and Racine? Could his son be going to UWM?

Enough for tonight. I hate to do this on the board in public but if that is the only way we can get this resolved, I guess we have to so we can help each other and keep the board free of scoundrels.


______________________________ . . . ____________________________

Here are some other emails from JT today:

Me to JT: Are the rumors true on the board that you were using a second ID and got in trouble?

JT: Yeah they are true, I got into some trouble last time with some shipping problems but thts in the past and I wanted to make a new start, I see you opened a bunch of paypal disputes with me, why is that? Everything was shipped and is on the way. I'm not a bad guy.

Me: Do you also use the name Steve Rogers and James Sutphin? YankeesFan09?

JT: No I have never used any of those names.

Me: OK. But you are YankeesFan09 too, right?

JT: No I am not, the only two ids I ever used were midwestfan09 and uwmrules09. I never used that Yankees id.

Me: OK, thanks! Let's hope everything arrives in the mail today!

JT: Just lmk when you get everything and please post it all arrived ok. I am just done with the GUU boards from now on.

JT: Thanks but I am just gonna leave the site, it's not a big deal. I'll just lay off for a while.

YankeesFan09 is connected with the names Steve Rodger and Jim/James Sutphin. He provided PayPal with the USPS tracking number of:




Tracking Company: USPS
Tracking Number: 03083390000067381333 (which doesn't work)




Interestingly, the # you provided does seem to work and indicates your package is currently in transit. In another thread YankeesFan09 indicates he/she has only the one ID. I obviously have no idea but slandering a fellow member without having taken all the appropriate steps (i.e. a completed/resolved paypal claim) is irresponsible. A lack of patience doesn't necessarily equate into the other party being a crook. There is a place for responsibly alerting our community about possible purchase pitfalls but I think the forum would be better served if you would cease the accusative posts and take care of your personal business in private. I am sure our moderators are capable of handling the business of multiple ID's and what not.

I posted this in another thread but that one is buried so I figured I'd post here too. I bought a bat from midwestfan09 and paid by paypal on 5-20. I didn't receive it until 6-10. I was getting worried and emailed him a couple times asking about where it was. The first time he told me he would get it out the next day and the second time he told me it was shipped but he sent it parcel post so it will take awhile. He finally sent me a tracking # a few days before it arrived and he actually sent it priority.
I had no idea he had other user names or I probably would have stayed away but I did get the bat. I took longer than it probably should have but I did get it.
Just thought I'd let you guys who are waiting know.

It doesnt feel good being slammed the way I was, not sure about your situation. I think this should be good enough proof we are two different people, unless we are going to be accused of being the same person thats just on two different computers pretending to type to each other lol.

So, you are not UMWrules09? And these are not your multiple emails?

Yes I was uwmrules09 and those are my email accounts, but I am not Yankeesfan and those other emails and names aren't mine. Frankly I just want all of this to be done, everything was shipped and is over as far as I'm concerned once I hear from everyone that they got everything ok. Mr. 3000 it's none of your concern now anyways, I am done.

It is my concern. This forum is my concern. The upstanding, honest members here are my concern.

We look out for one another. If you have a problem with that then maybe you don't belong here. If you can't conduct business and complete transactions honestly and within a reasonable period of time...then perhaps you shouldn't be doing business at all.


You have a track record. Obviously nothing has changed.

Fine then, how about this, lethe hear from. The people they got everything ok and I'll leave for good Mr. 3000. Is that ok with you? I understand I have a track record and I also apologize for what I have done.

For what its worth, I bought one bat from him as midwestfan09 and it took a few weeks but it came in just as described and I made a trade a while back with him as uwmrules09 that took about 2 weeks as I remember to finish but I got everything as it should have been. If he had a bat I wanted tomorrow I would buy from him again. I think the only things he is most likely guilty of here is a little slow shipping and maybe poor judgement for the 2 IDs.

I promised that I would keep the board updated on my transaction with midwestfan09...so I am pleased to report that my two bats arrived by Priority mail today.

Btw, just so you know, I am posting this message in three different threads, as all deal specifically with this board member. I think that's only fair.

Thanks, J.T.

I purchased a baseball from him. He notified me about a delay and I received the ball earlier this week. He shipped it Priority so it arrived a couple of days after he emailed me. Overall it was a good transaction. Hope everything works out well with those that haven't received their items yet.

I recieved my 2 items today. They are as described and nothing wrong with them.

I had concerns after others came forth and stated that their items never showed up but in the end, I'm understanding on late shipping to a certain point. The problem is there was no real reason ever given for the late shipping, nor was there any DC emailed to me which I think should be standard practice. The buyer should NOT have to request that info, it should be sent regardless.

The witch hunt which evolved from this whole thing was a bit much and in my mind there was also some baiting by what was posted that wasn't necessary. Look, the fact is, the guy has used multiple ID's. Fair enough, that doesn't make him a bad person or a ciminal. In fact, technicaly I have 2 ID's on this forum am I a criminal now? You're probably thinking well, that's shady, but it's only because my old account had a glitch and was in some form disabled, not because of any wrongdoing, anyone can confirm this with Chris if they so choose.

Outright accusing him of being assocaited with yanks09 was a bit much without any actual hard proof.

He did live up to his end of the deal in the end and now it's time to move on.

Thanks for the 2 jerseys and hopefuly you can learn from this, or not. I can't say either way if I'd ever do business again but the items did arrive and as described, just late.

I received a partial shipment of my purchases from MidwestFan09 today. One baseball was missing. I have cancelled the other PayPal claims but will keep one open for $35 until that baseball arrives. When it does, I'll cancel that claim as well. MidwestFan09 sent me an email saying:

"I know, I just saw your post. I am really sorry about that, I'll get it out via priority mail Monday. I am really sorry for forgetting it, I just must have overlooked it. I'll hook you up with the Waltenbury broken bat I have as well to make it up to you."
JT, no need to send anything other than what I purchased. That's all any of us expect. A few have come out taking nasty swings at me during this, that's fine. But in the end, all we want is a clean, honest board.

Personally, I prefer redemption to crucifixtion. MidwestFan09, all I would ask is that you send a private email to GUU/Chris Cavalier and be honest with ask him to remove all your IDs (and I mean ALL - even the old ones), pick one ID to use, and work hard to regain our trust. But it is not up to me.

You've had a lot of chances on this forum. If the Administrators give you a last one, please value it.

On June 11th JT said he was mailing out my LOA for the jersey I bought from him. Well it's now June 24 and still no LOA even after he promised to send it out right away. It's almost 3 months since I bought these jerseys from him. He keeps telling more lies!!

He has a proven track record. Hopefully everyone will eventually see this and simply avoid doing any sort of business with him.

Perhaps, per his Facebook, he should spend less time fishing, golfing and attending minor league games and more time finalizing deals in a prompt and timely manner.

MidwestFan09: "I will send the ball out tomorrow [June 18], but I wanted to refund you as well for the trouble of everything."

Silly me, I thought his last email might be truthful. But, alas, no -- here's today's version:

MidwestFan09: Why don't you talk to Chris about my status on the GUU boards and then email me. I don't know how many times I have to tell you before you stop and listen. I HAVE NOT BEEN ON THE GUU BOARDS, I WAS SUSPENDED FROM THE BOARDS. Now I sent a refund for the Morales ball about a week back, did you receive it? If so, everything is fine and dandy and you don't have to deal with me EVER again and I won't have to deal with you EVER again.


I wondered how he kept track of his lies, but then realized if you just lie all the time, you don't have to keep track. Perhaps he'll send me Skube's LOA instead .....

Join the crowd...I came across two cheap bats he had; he pulled them off ebay (so far, so good) but then never mailed them. When I filed a dispute, he offered a paypal 'refund,' only to clean out his bank account so that it bounced!

I was warned ahead of time that he could be inconsistent, but obviously I underestimated him (I didn't see this thread til just recently).

Given previous posts' info, his name is James R Toler and apparently he lives in Racine, WI, and goes to school in Wisconsin. Everyone should STAY AWAY!

Same problem. Bought a bat and paid on July 18. Was told it went out July 28 and was sent a bogus tracking number. Also said a "special gift" was added to my purchase. August 12 still no bat and numerous emailed not responded to later, I got his address from a forum member and told him I was sending all the info on the case to his local police department. I had a paypal refund (which is still pending while paypal reviews the dispute) within the hour.

I'd bet money that the refund comes back as 'declined by the seller's bank.'

He is also a nightmare to deal with as a buyer too. He wasted a ton of my time tire kicking me for some of the Rams jerseys I have for sale. He asked for all kinds of pics. of numerous jerseys and then haggled with me on the prices only to eventually disappear with no further communication. I even told him at the get go if he was not seriously interested in buying anything to please not waste my time. I should have known though because he did the same thing to me awhile back. A real joke.

As a conclusion to my dealing with midwestfan: I finally got the two bats. I kept sending an email to the seller every 2 or 3 days, just trying to get a response. He wrote back out of the blue 3 days ago and said my emails had been getting blocked by his spam, so he didn't know the refund hadn't gone through.

He mailed the bats fedex on Mon, and I got them today (wed), so at least I got what I wanted, albeit a month or so late.
