Ripped off by Motownmadman
In July I sent Matt LaFond (aka Motownmadman) a certified check for $250 for (2) 14x 6 'XF' coded steel wheels. Since Motown had been a very active member of this site for so long I trusted him to send me the wheels AFTER I sent the check...wrong move. Scams such as these appear to be common on ebay but I honestly felt 100% safe dealing with 'one of our own' and let my common sense fly right out the friggin window by not doing a C.O.D deal.

Re: Ripped off by Motownmadman
WOW, man i hate to hear that, surely somethings going on besides that. he posted a thread about finding a prototype zl1 ,7-25, and it was ripped up pretty good, since then i haven't heard nothing from him ( on the forum here, don't know him personally)

Re: Ripped off by Motownmadman
Hey Jude, Dont jump to conclusions so fast.. I have bought some stuff off Matt LaFond (aka Motownmadman)and I thought the same way you do.... I waited three months to get my stuff from him, you have to be patient he is slow, I mean really slow... I almost posted a response on here the same way you did about the stuff I bought off him but I stayed calm and waited... Trust me I know how you feel, Matt held up my car for THREE months to be completed... I was pissed but I did recieve my stuff... Next time you write him a PM click on the box that will send you a read receipt... Good luck, Mark

Re: Ripped off by Motownmadman
Jude, have you left word for him at other muscle car forum sites? He was a moderator at one of the other sites, and may check in there from time to time. I bought an item from him last spring, and it took 4-5 weeks to show up here...similar to 396L35 scenario. Hope your wheels show up soon. See you at the Reunion...

Re: Ripped off by Motownmadman
Jude,
I think you have just succeeded in making his short list.You know he has biker chapters all over the country and all he has to do is make a phone call.  Take a look at his Ebay feed back.A real Goof Ball. ez*matt
