Here is the description
This is the ultimate of sites on the net and on ebay, I am selling out my website businesses and moving on to bigger and better things, I opened a retail store in our local area and no longer have time for any sites and the store brings me in more than I need so my success can also be yours...
Right now I have the site on a temp server until I get it sold then it will be re uploaded to its own domain name again, Only reason for this is I have no time to fill anymore orders and my customers get pissed and yell at me then I have to spend 3 hours at my psychologist office HAHA just kidding...
Anyway this is the scoop on the site, We are a wholesaler of Microsoft Xbox games all games ever made including new realeases All top games for xbox we get them wholesale at under $6.00 each and resell them on our site for flat rate of $15.99 now once you own the site you can change the prices to what you want, We believe in keeping the prices where it is as this generates massive revenue for you and your family.
If I did not open my own retail game shop this site would stay mine all freaking mine and you would just have to be screwed and buy up them lame sites that sell bubble gum wrappers. But To be all honest I opened up my store mainly from revenue from this site but not to say the others I own which will be selling helped out a lot also... I have the domain registered for one year, And hosting is good for another 1 to 6 months however long I put on it I cant remember.
When people place an order they would contact me I would let them know the best way to pay a lot came through the mail and a lot came in from paypal my most recent paypal account history is from Jan 17th I will post a capture of it so you can see I made over 1800 buckaroonies in 1 freaking day. Which is not bad at all, I wont gurantee you will make 1800 bucks daily it might be 1200,800, 300 but I myself never had a day under 900. I will be keeping my wholesale account with Microsoft as I now own the retail store but I will direct you in the way of obtaining your own account with them which is free if you have a Tax ID number which Tax ID numbers are free also. Within 3 to 7 days you will be on the road to success and be able to send yer ex wife that child support you owe. HAHA Damn women. If your a woman
bidding on this then please disregard the last comment lmao...
E-mail me for a link to where I have the site uploaded until sold...
On Jan-18-04 at 06:32: 10 PST, seller added the following information:
if I get a serious offer for the site I will end the auction early...
I contacted him via email various times. He ended the auction early and we agreed upon a price of 1800 on 1/22/04.
Here is the email:
I am being over run by emails so forgive the time it takes to write back. If you want the site for 1810 I will go head and end it yes...
Here is another email
I did get it ended by cancelling out bids. Someone snuck a bid in on you but we made the deal I will follow threw I just hope you will also. So the auction has ended...
Let me know when you ready to send payment and I will email the information on where to send..
I contacted him several times with no response. I attempted to reach him by phone on February 2,3. I left several messages with no response. I
finally talked with Niki, His girlfriend on 2/4/04. I told her that if I did not receive payment by 2/5/04 in the amount of 1800.00 I was going to file a internet complaint. She said he was at the SuperBowl and that he
would be back in town today.
On 2/4/04, after I had talked with Niki, I got an email stating:
I talked to him. The domain was pushed to you so check again you gave the name of rwilson761 thats who it was pushed to. The domain was pushed if you dont know how to figure namecheap out it isnt our problem that would
be yours. However, they pushed me the wrong domain of www.weaponsandmore.com instead of www.igotgames.com. And I still do not have the wholesaler information.
On 2/4/04 I found his mothers phone number 763-795-0005. I talked to her several times. She said that he was selling alot of websites and doing well, but that he did not have a store as he said he did. And that he
would not be selling these sites if he were making 10K per month as advertised.
On 2/4/04 I found out that Jeff had advertised a similar listing on ebay selling the www.igotgamez.com site. I contacted the guy, Kolt Curry who purchased that site for 1500.00. He had not received any wholesaler info,
but had received the site. His phone number is 716-567-3350. I have been in contact with him. We are sure there are similar incidents with this guy occuring.
I want my money back from this guy. He has lied to me stating he owns stores and that is the reason he is selling this site.
Description of how you were defrauded: I was promised a site of www.igotgames.com. I have not received this
site yet. I was also promised that I would get the wholesaler information from the guy. I have not received this either. The guy stated in the auction that he did not have time and he told me in emails that he owned a store. He provided me with an invoice from paypal that he was making 10K per month off this site. I know this
cannot be true, otherwise he would not be selling it. He has defrauded Kolt Curry as well as he purchased an identical site with a different name. He has the site but no wholesaler info.
Information about Victims:
Yes. Kolt Curry. 416-567-3350
