ATTENTION: In regards to James Blanton aka "tex parts 67-72" and Partner.
 
I have banned James Blanton aka "tex parts 67-72" after many unsavory dealings, and violations of board rules. He was selling as a dealer without paying proper advertising fees etc. He is claiming to switch ISPs and come back, and also get other board members to post parts for him. Take this warning, ANY member caught selling parts for him, will be banned permanently, immediately. If any of you see him, registered, or posting selling parts on this board, please let me know ASAP.

rip off
 
That dude ripped me off on Ebay. I was foolish enough to send feedback before closely looking at the parts. I only lost $30 though. Lesson learned.

I have been keeping my mouth shut for months now on this issue but due to the recent sticky note, I want to share something. Do a search on sliciknsmooth72 and smooth72 and YOU WILL SEE that this person seems to be using the same phone number. I called smooth72 awhile back about some doors that he was selling and he said his name was James,but I never bought them because he would never send me pics. Then a couple months went by and I was going to buy a cab from slicknsmooth72 and quess what NO pics again, then I realized the voice sounded the same as smooth72 and so I asked what his name was, quess what, this guys name was James again. So I then did a search on the two names and found out that the phone numbers were the same. After getting a little pissed I confronted him about being smooth72 and slicknsmooth72 and asing if his name was James B. he hung up the phone. OH btw, he said he was never a board member before when I was talking to him as slicknsmooth72. You be the judge.

Just sharing some info.

tex parts
 
This guy is a real character. Been there, done that. He gives these trucks a bad name. Luckily, after threatening him (I know, not real good, but he had me pissed), I managed to get most of the damage re-imbursed. Stay far, far away..............

ChevyDude 01-06-2004 02:11 PM

I'm a little ignorant on this one.....but is this the guy that sells all the chrome stuff on ebay where your money is sent to some place like.....Lone Oak, TX ???

Randy70C-10 01-06-2004 02:12 PM

Bowtiefreak- Slicknsmooth also posted a link to one of his ebay auctions last week, same guy.

SEVEND2 01-06-2004 03:47 PM

I was reading another link to this page and somebody stated that "they were afraid to buy anything coming from Texas for fear that it could be this guy". After reading all the nightmare statements about this guy, and I have seen him on e-bay and steared clear because of his negative feedback, I also am weary of purchasing from a Texas vendor. I definately pay attention as to what area the person is selling parts out of.
Anybody can change their handle name if they get a bad enough reputation. So bang up job there Slicknsmooth or whatever your name is at this moment for ruining it for all those honest sellers from Texas.
Some people just have no shame about ripping people off. From what I've read this guy also has the brass ones to get irate with customers that call him to question him about the crap that they have received.
Lying to customers about the product you are selling and taking their money is the same as stealing. So get a conscience and change your ways but it's probably too late for that as it appears your reputation, if you ever had one, is badly tarnished.

only two words for this kind of person: SLIME BALL!

Pilgrim 01-07-2004 05:39 PM
