Hello Gang,
I find no joy in posting this despite the fact that Im more then mad at fellow RD member (informme) for wasting my time and being a complete disappointment.
Last night I responded to (informme)s tread: (Need to get rid of urgent). He started the thread at 7:45pm. Within 12 minute he had 2 posted replies asking for his location. When he replied at 8:33pm he posted 6 fish for sale and include a location of Fontana.
At 11:54pm I sent the following PM to (informme), I would like to buy your blue tang. I will be out in Fontana tomorrow visiting my parents. Please call me when you get this I will be up for a couple more hours. I also included my cell number. At 11:59pm I sent him the following replay in his thread to make sure he was aware Im interested, Dude, I totally need that blue tang! PM sent. I can pick it up tomorrow if that works for you.
At 12:14am he replied in his thread the following, The blue fish, that would be great for pick up. Just let me know what time> Pm #, Jess,Both the sand and rock is yours if wanted. LMK. At 9:09am he replied to someones question about the purple tang, The purple tang is 4 inches. Pm returned. Thanks. Clearly he was checking his PMs.
I hadnt received a phone call from him so at 10:28am I sent him the following PM, Hey Informme, I sent a PM last night and I'm not sure if you got it. My cell is below. I'll try to send you an email too. I included my cell phone number once more. At 12:35pm he posted the following in is thread, All the fish are gone!! At 2:05pm I sent him the following reply to his thread reply, WHAT, I thought you said I was meeting you today dude?!!! You didn't call me. I PM you twice and emailed. Are you going to call or PM back bro?
At 4:11pm I replied again to his thread with the following thinking maybe he said the fish are gone because we agreed to meet for the sale, Leaving for Fontana, call me if you still have the blue tang for me. I will be there late. At 4:14pm I also sent him this PM, Leaving for Fontana, call me if you still have the blue tang for me. I should be there in about an hour and I will be staying late, so please call as late as you need. Once again I included my cell phone number. At 6:14pm I sent him the following PM, Hello, I'm in Fontana now. I havent got any PMs or phone calls are we still meeting? Once again I included my cell phone number.
At 8:14 informme posted the following on his thread, The bluefish, I never said that I would meet you. I have never spoke with you.......sorry! Then he posted again at 8:15pm, The livestock needed to go asap. At 8:10 fellow RD member JOK812 posted, don't worry bluefish you're not the only one that that happened to.
At 8:12 (informme) sent me this PM, I don't recall saying that I would meet you somewhere. Anyway, one guy picked up all the fish. Thanks

Im sure I dont need to add this but after dealing with (informme) I would have to say he is a complete flake and any transactions with him should be avoided. Not only did this guy blow me off, he was online a number of times in between my PMs and thread replies and did not PM or call me to clear this up.
He said he would meet me in a reply in his own thread and never returned my PMs. To top it off, he flat out said he never said that he would meet with me and that he never spoke with me, in his open thread. Thank you for reading my overly detailed thread. I hope this informs you about (informme)s lying ways and keeps you from being disappointed by him in the future.
PS- informme, I know I havent not been part of this online community as long as you but I know Im a honest, fair and contributing member of this forum and I have sold and even given away multiple fish and equipment here. I consider the people of this forum friends and I dont like you insinuating Im lying especially in an open thread. If you have a problem with people calling you out maybe you should think twice before flaking out next time.
