Lent out Timesert Kit


Recommended Posts

I have always considered caddyinfo to be a family. A family of members that 'got it' and understood each other, each other's motives and respected each other.

That is why it has taken me so long to speak about this.

If you look at this member's topics you will see that I and we spent a ton of time and effort helping him. When I do that, I develop a bond with the member as we have shared our time and energy to accomplish a goal.

He was convinced he had a head gasket problem, and seeing him having financial difficulty, I sent my pristine timesert kit worth $500 to him.

This member never sent the timesert kit back to me, I sent tons of PMs and Emails and he stopped responding. I even said I would pay the shipping, which I paid to get the kit there. I wonder if he feels any guilt?

I have sent tools to members around the country. What this does is close me down a little bit and cause me to be cautious. Its a shame.

If you do a search on this member, you will see a ton of threads that I and we helped him in extensively. Here is a link to the member

Here is the last thread

This is the proverbial bad apple in the bunch and I hope he feels guilt

This kit that was stolen from me, was given to me by a member here, to lend it out to members in need as he didnt need it anymore, that is what this membership is about, helping others.

There were some red flags, like saying he was very short of money while throwing money at the problem to the point of yet a second car.

I checked his announced home town, Coraopolis PA, and found it as a suburb of Pittsburgh, about 350 miles from here, so I can't volunteer to go by and buy him a cup of coffee and talk about the TimeSert kit, and maybe bring it back and ship it to BBF, my first thought when I saw he was in PA.
