Re: WARNING: Turbo Powa = scammer? (Turbo Powa)
I sent Turbo Powa several e-mails which none of them he replied to so i had no idea what was going on. Of course it's gonna seem fishy when another person is buying the seats from the same person too and hasn't heard anything about it either. Also I never called you a scammer. If you notice ther is a question mark behind the word scammer in a form of a question. I have no idea who you are and hopefully someone else have done business with you and can vouch for you. Just kinda gets a person worried when you buy something from them and e-mail them or PM them they do not reply to anything after the payment has been SENT. Now all of this has seem to be a miscommunication. Now we need to clear all of this up one way of another. Do what a responsible seller does and reply to my e-mails and PM so we can get this transaction done correctly.
