Freedom 255
Why I'm asking - I ordered a part several weeks ago and seller hasn't shipped (and is rarely responsive).
In August I was looking to buy folding steps for my Freedom 255. Dirtybiker002 suggested that I try haywire farm whose email address is 66bulldoggy at gmail.com. Dirtybiker described him as a dealer and good guy so I reached out and his response was quick, helpful, and friendly. This is great, I thought.
The seller said he had several, price was $300 plus $50 shipping, make me an offer.
He was so responsive and helpful about installation that I ordered from him, paying by Zelle (of course...). Ever since, the 'seller' has not shipped, blamed it on the courier (?who uses a courier for shipping?), and responses have been vague and few and far between.
So, this sure feels like I was scammed, but before I go to town on this guy, I wanted to check with my fellow members whether they had experience with him. Once in a while someone might have personal issues in the way, and before I go after him (I have resources most buyer wouldn't have) I thought I'd see if anyone know either of them.
Both members have some presence on this Forum and I have reached out to both; Dirtybiker has never responded.
Feel free to respond by private message.
Thanks
 
Hmmmm... something seems fishy with Dirty - I looked at his posts. All simply/quick replies likely to get a post count up... and one of his posts said Happy 4th of July but was hyperlinked to some weird looking address that I didn't dare want to click on. I'm going to go out on a limb and say this Haywire is actually Dirty.... I hope I'm wrong!

I fear you might be right…
