First thing first – ELECTRON, if you think that this post should not be here feel free to delete it or move it to “For Sale†section. I just want to warn other users of this wonderful community from fairly new user/member that call himself “MODSTERâ€
To be sure I’m not accusing anybody else, the person I’m talking about is:
Len Cochrane
#1-32 Huntley Close N.E.

Dear all,
Most of you know me for long time from this (and others) message boards. Many of you know me personally. I love this community of home automation for the great people. Well, I learned the hard way that no all of the members here are nice and honest.
Here is my story (I’ll try to make it short)
Modster posted in “For Sale†section that he is looking for 3Com Audreys. I contacted him if he is still interested and he was.
June 21st we made a deal that I’ll sell him my Audrey for $85 (shipping included).
He promised to send money to my PayPal account within 7 to 10 days, Please note that it would be July 1st the latest.
The I had to fly out of state for business and returned during first week of July. Money were NOT in my account so I asked Modster what happened.
He promptly replied during July 11th that he would transfer the money within 5 days. (That would be July 16th!)
That should warn me but I was stupid enough to ship Audrey out to him on July 13th (the shipping charge was $18.79). I sent him notification of shipment and tracking number and that was it my friends. No more communication with Modster.
The Audrey was delivered by UPS on July 20th!
Finally after many PM’s and emails he responded on August 1st. He stated that he had to pay additional 24.70$ in extra charges by UPS due to the labeling of the package and the way it was shipped. And that he will send me only $60 and not the $85 as we agreed. And AGAIN he asked for a WEEK to pay those $60. Now please note that I shipped Audrey from my company shipping department that deals with international shipping EVERY single day so there was NO way there would be a problem with labeling or the way it was shipped. However, I replied to Mr. Modster that if he mails me a copy of the receipt, I’ll pay for half of the additional cost.
Again, many emails and PM’s without response from his side. Finally I sent him an email and mentioned my attorney just to catch his attention. Man, you should see the fast reply.
(I put asterisks instead his nasty words…)
Quote email:
“i will send the f****** thing back to you c.o.d for the extra charges i paid and for shipping back to you.
do not ever email me opr contact me again.
and feel free to go f*** your self and your attorney.â€
Quote Private message:
“do not ever bother me again you impatient f****** idiot....â€
Impatient?? I’m waiting for my money OVER a month and I’m “impatient f****** idiot�????
Even after that I politely replied that we might still get some mutual agreement. I called UPS and tried to find out what happened and if he was really charged some additional money. The UPS response was that there were additional charges as BORDER FEES AND TAXESâ€! So not a problem with labeling or shipping. Regular border fees that he should be aware of. Still, stupid me I tried to reach some sort of agreement.
And here is what I got as his last response:
learn to read you retard
your piece of sh** audrey is on its way back to you for 45$ c.o.d. it should arrive within 3 weeks. feel free to refuse it and when it returns here i will keep it.
feel free to pull your head out of your as* anytime and replace it with the audrey when it arrives."
*****************************
So at the end this whole “deal†is going to cost me $63.70.
I’m just hoping that my Audrey will be still in working condition and with ALL the additions (Network adapter, CF cards, manuals and my notes for MCS Audrey,…) I sent with it.
Sometime life sucks!
So PLEASE be aware of this user. He apparently does not belong to our nice and honest community!
Besides – he really needs to wash his mouth! (See following post as example)

Of course I do have all the communication if somebody doesn’t believe me and I can posted here…
