Reply in order:
@cowsgoquack: Multiple account creation is against the rules, no reason to not ban alternate accounts.
@Mothatrucka: If you are still confused on this, let me set it straight: the guys stuff matches, the ADDRESSES match, the PHONE NUMBERS match, and he ADMITTED HE WAS THE SAME GUY! How in the WORLD could he be a different person? I talked to him on the phone! And why no IP addresses? If you had read my earlier posts, you would see that the mods edited all personal info out. That included an IP address. It would be dumb to post it again after a warning, eh? Also, a reputable member here contacted this guy on his own, with no relation to me, and the address he gave him matches the one I have (not gonna post the members name till I hear back from him, dont want to implicate him in anything.
Also, if I WAS lying.... Don't you think the other guy would have posted to say so? Not like this is a battle of my word vs his.... Seriously man, think, and read the thread.
@gannonbanned: Yeah, reaperkool is the guy. He is currently looking for an N64 portable for $100, all interested parties, contact immediately.
@SS: HOW did I get his phone number? Who knows! Maybe an uber cool portabilizer god came out of the sky and told me!
@SP: he had his phone number un-listed, I had to use "Other" methods.
Now, for the grand finale! Here, I have selected excerpts from my AIM with the scammer I had last night:
(11:25:13 PM) palmerluckey: Hello?
(11:25:29 PM) Reaperkool: Hi...
(11:25:36 PM) Reaperkool: I want to get one thing straight
(11:25:54 PM) Reaperkool: I DO NOT appreciate the phone call to my house... its out of line
(11:26:33 PM) palmerluckey: How so?
(11:27:00 PM) palmerluckey: You werent gonna contact me any other way
(11:27:11 PM) palmerluckey: Phone was the only option.
(11:27:33 PM) Reaperkool: Yeah but for that amount of money...... that's way blown out of proportion
(11:28:01 PM) Reaperkool: I will return the game boy along with $30 in cash because the gameboy does not work
(11:30:02 PM) Reaperkool: AND the whole thing with degrading my little brother in the forums was a little too far also
(11:31:09 PM) palmerluckey: So wait... $150+ is not worth a phone call? And that is a crap deal! The fladhcard is worth at LEAST $50! You have a 1gb sd, a 2gb sd, a custom painted, overclocked gameboy, a ezflash v ds flash cart, and pokemon blue!
(11:31:33 PM) Reaperkool: Ummm a 1gb card runs about $10.... lol
He goes on to say how much of a rip off portable are because they are old anyway.
11:35:42 PM) Reaperkool: And then I don't want to hear about this again... I got bills to pay.... and college. I really don't have the time for crap like this... no offense.
(11:36:12 PM) Reaperkool: He did nothing to the gameboy.... it turns on but it shows lines.... and music plays
(11:36:27 PM) Reaperkool: and by the way
(11:36:29 PM) palmerluckey: Ah, this is the brother now?
(11:36:36 PM) Reaperkool: It's been the brother
(11:36:44 PM) palmerluckey: Aha
(11:36:47 PM) Reaperkool: I mentioned "Little brother" earlier in the conversation
(11:36:58 PM) Reaperkool: Pay a little closer attention
(11:37:01 PM) palmerluckey: I missed that, i guess
(11:37:20 PM) palmerluckey: So, how come you are 3 months late paying?
(11:37:58 PM) palmerluckey: The ONLY reason you are talking to me is because i had to Track down your phone!
(11:37:59 PM) Reaperkool: I had the package ready.... but I've been too busy. I would honestly like to not be bothered by this
(11:38:47 PM) palmerluckey: Would you have ever paid if I would not have "rudely" called your house?
(11:39:24 PM) Reaperkool: In all honesty, probably not. HOWEVER, I do not like the way you slammed him all over the forums
(11:39:54 PM) Reaperkool: AND I hear you threatened with IP addresses and all that stuff... passwords....
(11:40:07 PM) palmerluckey: You DO realize i waited fOr almost 3 weeks before posting that?
(11:40:20 PM) palmerluckey: I gave him a chance
(11:40:30 PM) Reaperkool: You did
(11:40:34 PM) Reaperkool: I know that...
(11:40:53 PM) Reaperkool: BUT you should never deal over the internet..... through mail with strangers
(11:41:00 PM) Reaperkool: That's why we have stores
(11:41:23 PM) Reaperkool: so you can buy stuff thats made in factories.... not game boy's that stop working the minute you turn it on
(11:41:51 PM) palmerluckey: So how was slamming him out of line? Try picking up custom game consoles and flashcarts in a store.
(11:42:27 PM) Reaperkool: I wouldn't..... I don't trust that kind of stuff... nor do I have interest in them.
then a bunch more BS....
11:45:39 PM) Reaperkool: Ok......? I'm sure theres not a lot of money in that...... otherwise this money wouldn't bother you, am I wrong?
(11:47:03 PM) palmerluckey: $150+ is not a huge deal. Tracking down scammers and making sure they do not take other peoples moneys, is.
(11:47:36 PM) Reaperkool: Ha! Scammers?? Your asking to be taken advantage of by sending your stuff out to strangers!
(11:48:44 PM) Reaperkool: But Im done talking for now.... I went to school and worked today... now its my relaxation time.
(11:48:52 PM) palmerluckey: Bs
(11:49:03 PM) palmerluckey: I Want my payment
(11:49:09 PM) Reaperkool: You'll get it
(11:49:19 PM) palmerluckey: i have college to pay for, too
(11:49:32 PM) Reaperkool: What? your like 16
(11:49:54 PM) palmerluckey: Yeah? Been in college since 15.
(11:50:24 PM) Reaperkool: Your serious? And your not smart enough to not send your stuff out to strangers? Give me a break\
(11:51:40 PM) palmerluckey: I broke policy this time, figured I could always just file a police reprt. And why should I not?
(11:52:04 PM) Reaperkool: Ummm because it's not a big deal
(11:52:49 PM) palmerluckey: $150 is a big enough deal for me
(11:53:04 PM) palmerluckey: ONly takes 20 minutes
(11:53:11 PM) Reaperkool: I've wasted enough time, i'm tired. You'll get the cash plus your broken GB
I say a bunch of stuff about how he need to pay me back soon
(11:56:22 PM) Reaperkool: I have to go now
Anyway, if anyone wants it, I can post the full transcript someplace and link to it. Apparently, the kid is OK, but his brother is one of the most clueless, retarded poop egress I have ever had the misfortune to meet. What a load of BS.

Ok, hard proof has been shown. I am here to hammer the final nail in the coffin.
First let me present the above phone call. This is the phone call with his previous scammer right? Yes it is. As such, in the phone call, this was admitted, that he IS the previous scammer.
Now, this phone call couldn't have been made without a number, right? How did palmer get the number? Simple. He couldn't get it himself, so he had to get someone to help him. Someone had to get this new accused member to reveal there phone number. Who was that? Simple. Me. The legendary ShockSlayer.
This new member gave me the phone number, and, as such, palmer called him. However, palmer wasn't using the number to call the new member, but, instead, the previous scammer. The problem here is that if the two were not the same person, then the new member would not have responded as the previous scammer. However, he did.
Therefore, the member, gameguy89, IS THE PREVIOUS SCAMMER.

Hard enough proof mothatrucka? Now, quit denying it, and quit being such an ass(in OUR definition) to everyone.

Okay, guys, we've had our fun. Besides, posting any of this stuff here could incriminate evidence, as well as allow him to pull the harassment/negligence card. Now that he's been revealed as a scammer I think it's fair to say that we should stay far away and just leave the guy alone.
Palmer, glad you got a hold of him, and good luck getting justice. If you wanna post the results of your quest when this is all finished, that's cool, but I see this thread going nowhere good from here on out.
Locked.
