: Stay away from PumpinIron
duckcall 06-22-2010, 01:38 AM i paid for a set of OEM fairings from him Saturday morning. then he turned around and collected money from Tasos on the very same plastics later that night lying to tasos saying i had not paid for the plastics yet.
once me and tasos spoke thru pm's we found out he was basically playing us both. he told me i would have my refund this morning and tasos would have his tracking number neither of which has happened.
we have both filed disputes with paypal and hopeful it will all turn out in our favor.
tasos 06-22-2010, 01:41 AM Sadly this is true. We gave him the chance he wanted to sort it out, but he didn't...
xx8055NIACxx 06-22-2010, 02:37 AM WTF mang what a pussy way to do business
he better correct this shit or ban from here
duckcall 06-22-2010, 07:25 AM WTF mang what a pussy way to do business
he better correct this shit or ban from here
i doubt he is going to correct it. just by the way he was lying to us in his pm's shows what a piece of garbage he is.
he has a lot of things for sale right now so just be careful everyone.

CP10R 06-22-2010, 07:50 AM another shitty seller giving honest guys a bad rap. hopefully this works out.
miykl 06-22-2010, 09:52 AM I'm watching the situation....as all know the site can't do much other than ban, but we want to give the situation a chance to work out. Hope to see a reply here soon or the 2 buyers post the situation is resolved.
I've sold to him and he seemed like a kool guy, but then again he was buying. I shipped to him out in Scottsdale, Arizona.
duckcall 06-22-2010, 11:19 AM I've sold to him and he seemed like a kool guy, but then again he was buying. I shipped to him out in Scottsdale, Arizona.
yea he seemed like a cool guy to when he was getting my money, then he pulls this bullshit. i have his address and phone number but i didnt want to post any personal info.
duckcall 06-22-2010, 11:28 AM edited thanks flthy1
flthy1 06-22-2010, 12:41 PM ^^^^ No problem bro, just lookin out!! Good luck man
flthy1 06-22-2010, 12:41 PM By the way, sorry about the shady deal!!!
AlexGrady 06-22-2010, 01:48 PM This is just another example of a lowlife scammer tryin to get the better of us good people...man and to think I nearly did business with this con artist!!! Don't know who to trust on this once sacred forum...is the economy that bad, where these morons feel they could take advantage of the rest of us???? I'm sorry to hear of your stress my brothers...I hope ur refunded soon!
roby1217 06-22-2010, 08:01 PM Sux to hear that...but I would like to throw in my 2 cents. I was gonna buy the signals/tailight he had for sale, I thought we had agreed on a price, but it was a mix up but I had already sent the money through paypal. When he PMd me back and said he was firm on the price, he INSTANTLY refunded the money. I had no other contact or problems. It just SEEMS that if he was that much of a scam artist, I wouldnt have heard from him. I am not taking up, nor defending him, just sharing my experience which might give hope to you guys........good luck, a ban is in order either way though

yea he has had plenty of time to get me money back. if you want ill shoot you the pms he sent just lying to me and tasos.
tasos 06-23-2010, 01:09 AM As said, he asked for a day to sort it out and we gave it to him. If i was paid twice for an item, i would have moved the whole world to fix it in time and restore my name. He hasn't logged in since...He is not a newbie or a kid or anything, i believe too he's a good guy, but i dunno? :dontknow:
We also have to protect ourselves, we're talking $1100 here...
I personally have bought so many items worth $k's from this forum and NEVER EVER had an issue.
Hopefuly this will be sorted out shortly in a good manner and everything will be ok. I am willing to do everything in my part to make it happen, as i'm sure Duckcall will.
NinjeR 06-23-2010, 01:11 AM Good luck to the both of ya...
duckcall 06-24-2010, 03:20 PM just a little update, still nothing.
mkw007 06-25-2010, 12:43 PM Sorry to hear your problem. Bought an Akra Hex can off him earlier this month - $280 sent from UK to USA, can arrived in great condition, well packed this week! Couldn't fault him.
Can't understand the dude going bad!
tbass 06-25-2010, 07:47 PM I just bought a 05 swing arm off him the deal went through got it today feeeewwww!!!
gloofy 06-26-2010, 11:23 AM I paid for the Clear Alternative front blinkers last Sat. I haven't seen them yet but, I'm not too concerned. People get busy sometimes...
duckcall 06-26-2010, 04:57 PM I paid for the Clear Alternative front blinkers last Sat. I haven't seen them yet but, I'm not too concerned. People get busy sometimes...
thats when i paid for the plastics, have you heard anything back from him? people get busy yes but he went from responding daily then gone when me and tasos found out about both paying for the same item. i would love to post the pms he sent back and forth to me and tasos that just shows what a liar piece of garbage he is.
rainking1978 06-26-2010, 05:12 PM I'm sure paypal will refund you your money. As long as you sent it via "goods" and not gift.

I haven't heard a peep. :dontknow:
hs1113 06-27-2010, 10:41 AM Anyone hear back from him? I bought the ASV levers last Saturday, nothing yet.
How easy does Paypal refund you your payment? I told him I'd give him till Tuesday...
YB Legal 06-29-2010, 05:47 AM that sucks. i hate lying a$$ thieves....i too have had good dealings here, you just never know anymore with people.

gloofy 06-29-2010, 09:47 PM Still nothing. How long do we wait until we attempt a refund from PayPal?
I've never had a problem before.
TENN10 06-29-2010, 10:20 PM Still nothing. How long do we wait until we attempt a refund from PayPal?
I've never had a problem before.
I would go ahead and contact Paypal and get a case started. They are very easy to deal with. If a refund is in order, you will get it.
I always use paypal!
schwein 07-01-2010, 09:03 AM i paid for a back protector 2 weeks ago and he said he would package it up and send it out after i paid, still havent heard back from him about anything... should i just file a dispute with paypal?
NinjeR 07-01-2010, 09:04 AM i paid for a back protector 2 weeks ago and he said he would package it up and send it out after i paid, still havent heard back from him about anything... should i just file a dispute with paypal?
Judging by how this thread is turning out, I would.
schwein 07-01-2010, 09:19 AM do we think this is him, paypal says his name is Chris Jumonville
http://www.facebook.com/chrisjum
schwein 07-01-2010, 09:28 AM i decided to enter a claim with PayPal, its only for 50 dollars so its not the end of the world.
it really sucks because there are so many really legit guys on this board and i have bought a few things from guys who were just great to deal with, did have to worry about anything... i HATE scum bags.
can we kick this guy off the board like ban his ip?
Scott10r 07-01-2010, 09:43 AM There are always a couple of bad apples out there, atleast we have paypal to set things straight when people turn klepto.
RDLYN13000 07-01-2010, 10:47 AM do we think this is him, paypal says his name is Chris Jumonville
http://www.facebook.com/chrisjum
Thats probably him, it looks like that dudes been pumpiniron...
themightymezzo 07-01-2010, 10:55 AM As of now he hasn't logged in since Last Activity: 06-21-2010 02:15 PM on his profile. Possibly something came up or he's just hiding out from the forum. I've seen people go MIA for a couple weeks and then show face.
Either way hope it turns out well for all involved. Hate seeing people get robbed of their hard earned money.
duckcall 07-01-2010, 01:12 PM well paypal awarded me my money back today. still no peep from chris surprsie surprise. i hope the rest of you guys end up getting your money back as well.
schwein 07-01-2010, 02:10 PM well i am sure (assuming he used the same pay pal address with everyone) that we'll all get our money back, i dont understand how someone could really use paypal to scam people though, because dont you have like your bank accounts linked to those accounts? cant paypal find out who you are and where you are and really screw up your world when you they need to cover people that you have scammed?

yea i was worried he already took the funds out of the account and id be shit out of luck. when i called paypal they told they would force his account negative to get me my money back. then if he didnt pay paypal back they would turn him over to collections.
so all in all i hope it was worth it for this scum bag.
schwein 07-01-2010, 03:38 PM yeah sounds like they don't eff around, well ill keep this posting updated if and when i get my money back!
NinjeR 07-01-2010, 06:22 PM yea i was worried he already took the funds out of the account and id be shit out of luck. when i called paypal they told they would force his account negative to get me my money back. then if he didnt pay paypal back they would turn him over to collections.
so all in all i hope it was worth it for this scum bag.
Yeahr, Paypal will put his account in the neg, but it does not pull from his bank account, just goes on his credit report as to owing paypal. But he can easily just open up another account under his girls name...that's the sucky part about it.
NinjeR 07-01-2010, 06:24 PM I hope all you guys get your money back. Specially Tasos since we're talking about 1100 bucks here.
tempe_ty 07-01-2010, 10:42 PM :bs:
tasos 07-04-2010, 10:12 AM I was also notified by Paypal that i'll get my money back in 3-5 business days.
Hopefuly this will turn out good for everyone...
schwein 07-06-2010, 07:35 AM i started a claim last week, but did it all trough the internet, i never called them up or anything. to expedite the process, should i be following up with a phone call and tell them about everyone else on the board who had problems with him? or will it be very evident when they see the amount of activity on his account?
TMY10ER 07-06-2010, 04:15 PM You can call them if you'd like but they will see all the claims/disputes filed against him and know what's going on. sorry to hear about all the B.S. guys.....and i "almost" sent him some cash for a suomy helmet he had for sale!!!!! thank god i was broke!!!!
gloofy 07-12-2010, 06:57 AM I got my refund too.
Seems weird PayPal isn't a great way to steal other people's money. If he would have asked for a personal check mailed to him that would be a different story.
The fact he hasn't logged in either since the 21st. Maybe he was in an accident or something, the guy had positive feedback.
It would be nice to know if he xfered the money from pp to his bank acct.
themightymezzo 07-12-2010, 09:23 AM i got my refund too.

schwein 07-12-2010, 12:46 PM well i got my money back from PayPal This morning at 11:05 AM... they didnt give me any other information other than i am receiving my money back. paypal is a pretty incredible service!...
themightymezzo 07-12-2010, 01:18 PM paypal is a pretty incredible service!...
One of their customer service people actually hung the phone up on me one time. I wasn't even being that rude was just trying to get a manager on the phone. I do like the idea of how easy it makes things but I still hate them with a passion.
TMY10ER 07-12-2010, 02:42 PM I got my refund too.

The money was either still in his paypal or he offered the refund cause paypal cannot take money from your bank account, they will either put the funds on hold that are in the account or put a negative balance against the account so that any funds sent or received will go towards that balance. i'd kinda like to know what happened to him though cause i had talked to him a couple times and he seemed like a cool guy? i guess you never know but i'm glad you guys got your cash back, that's the main thing.

he has my number he could have called me and let me know if something was up. he offered no refund to anyone this kid is just a scammer plain and simple.

TMY10ER 07-13-2010, 01:55 AM he has my number he could have called me and let me know if something was up. he offered no refund to anyone this kid is just a scammer plain and simple.
Oh i wasn't trying to stick up for him at all bro, i'm glad you guys got your cash back. i was just saying that he probably never even transfered the cash out of his paypal account is all in which case is he doesn't provide proof of tracking that he sent your goods then paypal will of course just issue you a full refund. obviously something is fishy with the situation and i'm more than happy everything worked out for ya. i wasn't trying to stick up for him or make excuses for his actions or lack of. sorry if you took it that way man.
schwein 08-24-2010, 04:57 PM anyone hear anything from this guy? looks like he signed on at 8/18/2010 so hes not dead :)
This piece of shit i nearly bought those same fairings...
He uses the same user name and is on a couple of other forums too.
I thought he was in Oregon though?
Anyways he is a tool and needs a hammer to some fingers.
schwein 02-10-2011, 05:51 PM Just an fyi this ass clown is still around the forum, do not buy from him!
