Hehehe.. I was packing your drive when I typed that out.

Hey it doesn't matter who'd traded with him, they aren't blackballed.Racer and WickedMF are outstanding traders and if they choose to deal with him who am I to say they can't.

You are right Greg, we might ask that you don't bit if you choose too that's you perogative. Hell if Puto Stank didn't go around bragging about it how would we know anyway.

Here's a question, is it cool to rip off a rip off? Not that I would do it but it sure would teach him a good lesson

I started threads at Ars and Sysopt to which I'll add a link to this thread.

Traders like this really get on my nerves. Frankly people who have been this consistantly stupid deserve whatever comes their way.

Good luck nailing this a**hole.

OK, finally able to reply now that I am at work and not dealing with a F#$*ing cable modem at home that has worked about 1 hour out of the last 72 hours. The main reason that I posted was not to defend Nick. I posted because anyone can go to Heat's site and see that there are positive evals from both him and me in our profiles. I was afraid that this would affect my overall standing with the rest of the senior's on the board. I guess it was a mistake going public with the deals because of all the crap it has caused. At least this will get it out in the open that I have dealt with Nick. Since my standing with the "others" does not seem to be compromised, I will not be going anywhere after all.

Wow talk about jumping on the band wagon late!!!

Anyhow, just to reitterate(sp?) what Red and Blade have been saying. The stank ripped numerous people before Heatware so many negatives were not posted. The problem with Heatware is that anyone can post any eval they want about anyone. Heatware was the only thing around for rating users and most were afraid to get thier username F'ed up by the skank. Yes he did threghten to do that! And gettting a hold of rage or anyone at Heatware was and still is almost impossible to get you evals fixed. I was ripped by him, but just for some fans. Pissed me off but there was not much I could do about it then. Now we have an awesome group that sticks together. Please just listen to Red and Blade and don't deal with this ass ever again.

I guess the moral of the story is,.."If you want to deal with Nick Caputo, and you get burned, don't come here lookin' for sympathy."

I've personally never had occasion to deal with this guy. He has never done anything to me. I do, however, know the vast majority of these traders hear speaking in unison against him, and their word is good enough for me. There's no reason to risk property or money of yours on this guy.

Not only does that little Nose Picking threaten to do it, if I recall he did it tho Bamavoo and a couple of others who refused to deal with him. I think that would be cause enough for me to visit my cousin in Philly and we could go visit Nick the Dick in Williamsport now that I have his home address which I was able to get from using "whois" thanks to him inclucing his website domain in his sig with his email.

Not only is he a greasy little wank, but he is an extremely stupid greasy little wank.

Personally, i dont' see why anyone would want to deal with him to begin with...especially after seeing what he's done. I won't blackball anyone that's dealt with him, but it makes me seriously question their judgment. I think of PC abusers as a community, and this little troll is a menace. Why perpetuate his trolling? Surely, you can find what he's selling from someone else...

Hell, if he was selling a PS2 for a dollar, i'd tell him to shove it up...well, you get the idea.

I remember when I joined AGN back in the UBB days.I was new to online trading and I am glad people like Red was there to warn me about people like Nick Caputo.Nick likes to e-mail you and play the victim.

Rubberduckie:
Most of the people that traded with him knew his past and dealt with him anyway...that was my point.

I agree with Red...you're buying from the devil dealing with him. And his name comes up often enough that most everyone knows what he's done and is capable of doing.

I too, have gotten emails to the effect, "please stop, i'm dealing with top traders and am trying to redeem myself". Well, guess what? I don't give a rat's @ss. If he was trying to redeem himself as he claims, he'd reimburse the people that he ripped off. Most of them are still around. Has he done so? No.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
