I have never posted here before, but a friend told me about this
group. I just had a guy sell me a shit drum on Ebay and is now
refusing to send my money back after I returned the drum to him. It
was just a $250.00 6.5 times 14 Drum Workshop snare, but I wanted to
warn you. He goes my the name of pawnmstr on Ebay. His name is Lee
Barks Jr and is at Dynamic Pawn, Inc in Jackson Mississippi. Beware of
this schyster.

Tom,

You need some help? I'm a resident of the Bold New City (that's what they
call Jackson here, anyway) and would be happy to kick fraudalent tail for
you if need be. Dynamic Pawn, eh? I'll go investigate. Let me know if I
can do something for you.

How did he word his auction? If it SPECIFICALLY stated "no returns" in the
text then you're SOL.

What's wrong with it? Does it match his description on Ebay? If not,
report him to Ebay. Or you just don't know what you have - BTW
6.5X14=91 So it's actually a 91 drum.

I'm going to head over there today and see for myself; if the drum is still
there, that is.

Haha!!! I knew a Lee Barks when I lived in Jackson. I wonder if it is the
same guy.

If Dynamic Pawn is a real store, file a complaint with the better
business bureau.

no offense but the guy has a positive rating of 403. Maybe you misread the
details.

I might add, small claims does not always work. If the guy doesn't show, you
may win a junction, but it's still up to you to collect the money. I've been
through it before.

Good luck to you. I'm curious to how this will turn out.

This guy has a pretty poor reputation on Ebay , but he dropped off the face of the earth around 2000- I understand he lived in a trailer in jackson
