" For Sale" 1998 CONVINCOR 253 SUPERCHARGED $19,999 85mph

Amen to that HD,
It's like a guy that held you up in another city and 4 months later you find him lost walking down your street and you have a baseball bat in your hands and all you friends with you after practice. what are you going to do?

This guy is unreal, if he doesn't pay me by tomorrow I will post his email and paypal transactions
He sold the same transom plate twice and burnt the secound guy too.so far.
Maybe he sold it more times than that.
I told him to checkout how his listing is doing here, If he has any sense at all he will pay up.

You think he could be buddies with Checkthis/ Naw ....what are the chances.
 
Well, this sure turned into a fun read. :popcorn:
I'm not in the market for a big boat this year but hope to be moving to a big lake in a few years and to get a big boat then. I do appreciate the warning about this shady guy, and those shopping now are likely greatful to be aware as well.

A question? Are we all violating the "Classified Posting Rules sticky" about no negative posts. How does it apply when there may be or likely is a predator/thief/dishonest person doing the listing?
 
WOW

what a dirtbag to try some of that scht, sorry MK that it all went down like that....
and.....i better start looking a little closer!! i guess when your not buying you dont look so close at the ads!

I see hes got other things for sale too.....we could ???:cheers: mess with him!

I wouldn't worry about it... if you burn somone on the board, it should be known to the rest of the members. How else are we to keep this little online community of ours safe?

I'm glad that MK spoke up about it.

Your slipping man :poke: you should have cought the missing tail pipe. Me and you had the cleanest boats for that kind of money
 
I must say some of the cleanest and most well kept boats I have seen are right here that our forum members own.

I think everybody should be warned about this guy too. I'm not the only one he has burned.
I emailed him this morning I gave him by the end of today to pay up or I post the evidence.
It's one thing by saying things that aren't true. I have clear evidence on this Looser that all should be aware of. And If he pays I will post the pay pal receipt that he paid me.

The other guy is in the Virgin Islands US that he appeared to burn also " named Ricky. I emailed Ricky to see what his story is. no word back yet.
MobileX was dumb enough to send me a copy of Ricky's pay pal receipt for the same price he sold it to me for a month earlier and said I didn't get it because the address was undeliverable. When I emailed MobileX back and said that is not me , He responded, I got you two mixed up.
So this guy can't even keep track of who he burns.

Mobile.x scammer and ripoff beware

Howard H. AKA mobile.X scam artist all beware do not by anything from this guy.
Here is proof that he burned me and another guy who knows how many more, Don't you be his next victim. He knows how to manipulate ebay and paypal so you can't open a case on him, He lies and says he tried to communicate and sent many email when he didn't. He justifies an excuse in his mind to burn you. He still owes me and after many request for my money back he won't send it.
Here is my transaction receipt that I paid him the day after the auction.
Transaction Details and proof he is a liar and manipulator

Amount: $57.99 USD
Status: Pending
Date Requested: Sep 24, 2010
Subject: PayPal money request from michael kordyak
Note: You owe me for the inner transom plate you burned me for. It's time to pay up

Here is his response to my paypal request.
I emailed you several times that both USPS and UPS said that address was unshippable.
Even if it was good, it would be a lot more for shipping,
Then you give me neg feedback and say I didn't communicate with you, I emailed you at least 4 times during that period.
Remove the neg feedback, and send me a good address and pay whatever additional shipping charges, and I will happily send it out.
I have never screwed anyone on ebay before, I am not sure what you meant by no communication, maybe you never checked your email, but I sent the emails, and did not deserve a neg feedback.

I told him I paid him on May 9th and it doesn't work that way.
Here is his response.
It DOES work that way.
And you didn't pay me May 8, you were supposed to pay me then, you didn't pay me for over a month after that.....
June 21 to be exact. Here is the Paypal transaction.

In a message dated 9/23/2010 9:46:12 A.M. Central Daylight Time,


I emailed Him back and told mobile x your confused I'm not rikky and thats not my transaction.

Mobilex's response was:

Ok... I had you two mixed up, you were the one who wanted to know if it was new, which it was not, and I just wanted to make sure that you knew it was used, but just repowdercoated.
So, I kept emailing you to make sure you were aware that it wasn't a new part, so when you got it, you weren't upset that it was used. I sent you several emails, but you never responded till you left feedback that said there was no communication. I even contacted ebay, and sent them all the emails, to see what I should do. All you had to do was say that you understood it was used not new.
I have sold thousands of parts on ebay, like I would want to ruin my rating over a $40 part... come on...

Hey MK, did you pay from a bank account, or credit card?

Reason I ask I some dude tried to burn me for $1000- shipping the 21 out here from CA... refused to refund my deposit (1K) and we went round and round... I got luckey I paid with a credit card thru paypal and my credit card company went after him... paypal was absolutely no help.

Just reminds me of that situation.
 
Bank account it became civil litigation, so I gave up until I saw his post here.
I'm sure If I sued him I would be awarded punitive damages with the evidence I have on him. And to post a boat for sale claiming 80 mph that doesn't run he just made his self look worse. BR already picked up on his BS before I ever saw this post.
He just came walking down my street lost and got beat with a baseball bat as far as I'm concerned. Mobile x made a comment why would I hurt my reputation over $40 bucks, but he did. If he was a normal thinking man he would apologize and send my money back.

This has cost him more than $57.99 + the other $57.99 from the other guy.
I don't expect him to pay because he is a low life and will live with his shame.


I have to move on with life, At least I know mobilex is finished here.
 
and you shouldnt feel bad about it at all over the years in buisness ive had quite a few people burn me and usually have not had any real means of retribution but this is like poetic justice screw small claims court stuff like this should be handled in a public forum
 
did you use paypal for the payment ? if so call them explain you did not get the item and you have been emailing the idiot...you have the proof ! but they do have a time limit on things...talked to harold the other day on this boat was telling me the engine was fresh and the blower had 40hrs on it..for whatever thats worth now after seeing this post...good luck Rob
 
That's how he sucks people in he's a con man and liar, He post a pic of a boat that doesn't run, You are a savy engine guy you can see that it has no exhaust tip. His craigslist ad show only the front of the boat. I think he trying to get a deposit then slap it together real quick. Like I said buyer beware. I just had to warn my fellow members of this guys chracter. I believe that boat will never run right with a procharged MPI from his hands.
 
MK, did you ever get your $$ back thru paypal ? they should refund but don't wait long as they have a time limit...good luck Rob

Hey Rob I did get my money back from paypal yesterday. I called them a couple weeks ago then sent them the proof I posted here. mobilex had until Oct.22 to respond and he never did so paypal reversed the transaction, I tryed that early on and paypal would do it then but they did it this time.

If this boat has no rot and could be picked up cheap enough someone couold fix it put it on a good trailer and have a nice Convincor. I would give 10K for it and make sure it has a clean title.
 
It would make a nice boat if it wasn't all jacked up.I can only imagine what it looks like in person!:sick:
 
Seeing that it needs alot of work, If a guy could get it cheap enough it may be worth fixing.
The main thing is to have the hull checked all over with a moisture meter and inpected for rot. Judging by the water lines and discoloration on the drive it sat in water a long time, Clear title I would want to see before any cash was given.
 
It's not worth what he is asking thats for sure.If it is structurely sound it could be a nice ride with a lot of work.
 
I hate to ask the question on this thread after all the bad things that happened, but are those stock wheels on the trailer? I have the same ones and I though someone added them.
