I'm the guy who started the Indianscout thread. Without going into all the bloody details...the guy offered me a trade - his tele for my strat. I acccepted his offer, we exchanged a ton of email, exchanged shipping addresses, and agreed on a shipping day. On that day I shipped as promised and sent him the tracking# immediately. He didn't send a tracking # because he didn't ship. He also refused shipment of my strat, then claimed his 12-year old niece was the one who refused the shipment. I was later PM'd by two other forumites who informed me that Indianscout was also offering them the tele in trade - and this was while my strat was enroute to him. Long story short - this guy is a chronic liar and game-player who doesn't care who he burns. And for every lie and every dirty deal he has an excuse on tap: I had to take my wife to the hospital...my medication has me screwed up and I can't remember things...I didn't ship your guitar because we had a blizzard...I have the right to change my mind...you're just bashing me because I'm an indian...and on and on. If you haven't read the thread in the classifieds, and have an hour or so to kill, check it out. He probably has close to a hundred posts there all by himself - read what the guy has to say from start to finish. If you want to know what kind of human being Indianscout is, his posts will tell you all you need to know.
