EDIT: and be sure to check the update here:

if you check the link, the seller is vinylpushers aka sheyhyar\stacey. i would say it certainly is a scam at this point. i just hope that my mixer is EXACTLY as described and not completely different like the powebook scam and that d3020 and dj thanh and everyone else end up with either records or money back. i suppose the forum has learned a hard lesson at our expense...i know i may have lost $900. and to think that this was going to be my first mixer...so much for starting to dj now

go and report a fraud, and open the package in from of the postman or whatever, and explain to him your situation

Well, this is unfortunate that I was not able to receive what I bought from her. Tegu, keep us informed on the mixer. At this point, I will ask a favor...

I have an event to play on the 30th of this month and would really like to have some of the records that I was supposed to get from her. The list was this...

three drives - sunset on ibiza - above & beyond mix
cardee jay - if i were - positiva
love inc. - you're a superstar - nulife
cass & slide - perception - automatic label
agnelli & nelson - el nino - xtravaganza label
taste experience ft natasha pearl - summersault
nalin & kane - open your eyes
schiller - das glockenspoil
blackwatch - northsky/sustain
riva - stringer
grace - not over yet
mario lopez - sound of nature
alice deejay - better off alone
freestate - release
ron van de beuken - timeless
william orbit - barber's adagio for strings (tiesto mix)
tiesto - nyana
joker jam - innocence (paul van dyke mix)
solid sleep - club attack (paul van dyke mix)
paul van dyke - face to face
chakra - love shines through
veracocha - carte blanche
hydra - affinity
robert miles - children
underworld - dark & long
push - universal nation
art of trance - madagascar
Airscape - Sosei (Johan Gielen Remix)
Pulp Victim - The World
G&M Project - Sunday Afternoon (NU-NRG Remix)
Oceanlab ft. Justine Suissa - Satellite (Above & Beyond Remix)
Smith & Pledger - Forever
Matt Hardwick vs Smith & Pledger - Day One (Above & Beyond Remix)
Watergate - Heart of Asia (Hemstock & Jennings Remix)

My favor is if anyone has these and would be willing to sell them to me, get them here to (St. Louis) by this Friday, and assure shipment with tracking # it would be much appreciated. I know its short notice, but I was not expecting to get ripped off. Hope someone can help me out.

you can get some of them, atleast the veracocha one at www.bangintunes.com, i saw it there a couple of days ago... Its Technikal Remix tho, but its pretty similar to the original..

I hoping to find someone that has the majority of these and buy them like that.

You know its interesting I AIM'ed with Shehryar one time and ever since then he has not appeared online. I'm interested to see what ends up with your mixer Tegu because, as we both have said before, this really looks like fraud.

jeremy, the victim of Sheyhyar Qamar's powerbook scam, wrote me back the following email. This may be of help to you and others and will help to get the word out on this fraud.

Holy shit, sorry this shuckster is still out there. I'm pretty sure the
legit name is Sheryar Qaymar (or however it's spelled), that was the
original name on ebay and googling for it brings up mention of a DJ in so.
cal.

Obviously the "wife" or "fiance" is a bunch of bullshit.

Guy had been on ebay 5 years and had 96% feedback or so, not perfect
obviously but good enough that I trusted it.

Anyway, I'm going to keep updating this as things progress. Paypal has
been less than useless to me, if you paid using a credit card that's
almost definitely your best hope if things turn out bad.

Good luck, let me know how it turns out, I'll do the same. Feel free to
link my site so others can see what this seller is all about, I'm going to
leave your comments on here too.

Thanks,
Jeremy

definitly seems a bit scammy to me right now. if i recall whoever got the allen & heath mixer was buying for 1000 dollars less than what its really worth... that kinda says something is up...

if thats def his real name then surely the police would be able to get him

scamming somone online by advertising something, taking their money, and not delivering is about as spineless as beating up an old blind lady and stealing her wallet.

this is TRUELY pathetic...i have read 3! yes 3 diffrent scamms on TA tonight and im siverly regreting to make an ebay account to buy a half decent mixer and decks...i might have to pay bran new price to learn to dj....its truely pathetic

that was me who got the mixer. i'll be picking it up from the post office tomorrow and we'll see what the deal is.

and by the way, you realize that sheyhyar qamar is a TA...his name is Spective so be sure to give him a warm welcome next time you see him.

I see you're from Calgary, I'd suggest looking in the bargain finder for some decks and a mixer. 1200's seem to pop up there every month or so.

But spective is not married, nor does he have a fiancee. I bet this is someone defrauding people with his name. Spective as I've known him for yrs, is a standup guy, I bet this is someone using his name to their advantage, he is not married, I'm sure of that. I will say that whoever is doing this should be stopped, it's wrong. Could be spective, who knows, it's wrong.

FUCKING SCAMMED
I WAS FUCKING SCAMMED
THE BOX CONTAINED DETERGENT AND BULLHIST PAPERS TO MAKE IT WEIGHT MORE. IM CALLING THE POLICE.

i'm sorry to hear that bro...

fuck sheyhar, stacey or who the hell this fucking loser is....

thanks ill look into that...

Sorry to hear that!
Did you pay by PayPal - if you paid by Credit Card, you should be able to get some of the money back.

Contact all authorities possible - and preferably my phone or snail mail, many companies seem having easier ignoring mails than direct contact.

Hope this works out for you somehow - keep us informed on this case.

i hope this all gets sorted out for you guys, this sort of thing seems to be getting more common, i was ripped of, as was other TA's by DJArekTripleSL on the forum a couple of months ago, the worst thing is i don't think any of us got the goods or a refund out the tosser

hope you all have better result than me

well i've contacted everyone i could about this. paypal, fbi, and the usps. i am going to the police tomorrow. i can't believe there are assholes like that out there just to screw people. i'm out $900, my parents are extremely pissed off, and now i don't have enough money to get any dj equipment at all. great way to start djing, isn't it?

to ADMIN/MOD: please ban Stacey-L and Spective from TA and save whatever information you have from them: IPs, email, PMs, server logs, etc. in case the FBI should wish to subponea them.

of course you are pissed off but PM swamper about this and see what he thinks.

Hey folks,

I'm not really a member of this community, but I've been informed about the thread and feel obligated to let people know about the person going by "Shehryar Qamar," who currently has about $2300 of my money for an item never delivered. The site perviously linked to in this thread is mine, which details the entire experience ( the original page and blog updates).

The long and short, if you'd rather not read all of that, is that Qamar advertised on eBay a brand new Powerbook G4 15", totally pimped out and never opened. I used "buy it now" to place the order, paid, played email tag as nothing happened for a week or so, then I finally received... an entirely different, older machine that had been damaged. There's probably an $800-$900 difference in value between the two units, discounting the damage.

I'm normally a cautious guy, so I was surprised to see all this happen - the seller had %95 positive on eBay with a 5 year history. Oh well, ya just never know...

It also happened that shortly after the bogus item was delievered Shehryar's account (vinyl_pushers) relisted the same auction at least 4 times, and before he was banned from eBay he was listing stuff that I'm pretty sure was flat out nonexistant (Dual CPU Power Mac G5s, high end audio equipment, etc).

I of course was a little pissed off at this, and waded through a string of lies from the guy. He pretended to be "Antonella," who is supposedly his wife - I'm sure that's a lie, as you see the exact same MO on these boards with a different name.

The guy pretty much stopped responding to me for a month or so. Then he emailed me a couple of weeks ago asking that I return the powerbook and stating that paypal would return the money, but when I replied he said he didn't have enough cash and that it would take him several months to give me a refund. Oh yeah... I'm going to ship it to you and wait for the cash, you betcha!

So I've contacted everybody I could think of to try and get my money back. My credit card company (American Express) has told me I'll get a refund if I ship the incorrect unit to Paypal. I imagine Paypal is going to be a little pissed at Qamar for this, and I wouldn't be surprised if they set loose some lawyers in his general direction. As a scammer, Qamar wasn't so good - I've got his real phone number, his address, his name, the whole 9 yards. Using paypal to scam is a really stupid thing to do - they know EVERYTHING about you, and when American Express started pushing Paypal didn't have much choice but to cooperate (Paypal doesn't care about individual customers, but if you sick your credit card company on them they'll feel the burn).

So that's about it. I'd also like to say hi to Shehryar, who I am sure is reading this forum. More fun things are indeed headed your way, and I hope you've enjoyed holding onto my money - was it really worth fucking up your whole life for it?

Hello All,
Please read the thread I have posted regarding this fraud, which was carried out by Stacey-L, my ex-fiance, not me.

All details will be made available in this thread.

I think this is better considering theres about 5 different complaints that Ive read through this thread, and I think its more organized if you all post further concerns you have after reading my thread over there.

fack this is messy...hope it gets solved.

Nou you have absolutely no concept of what is going on here. nothing is sorted. lies, lies and more lies...

SPECTIVE

explain to me how this fraud was carried out by your ex "Stacey" but yet the checks that were sent to you had your name on it.

i'm done dealing with you and all your fake aliases (stacey, antonella, nick mariani). and i am tired of the lies and wasting my time responding to them.

Do not pretend to be honest. i am well aware of the powerbook scam you were involved in.

if you want to resolve this, paypal me $891.78 until that happens, it is not resolved. excuses do not cut it in my eyes or that of the law.

and way to include textbooks from the school you go to, UC Davis, you dumb fuck.

you should be hearing from the authorities any day now.

MOD: please ban this ****** unless you enjoy reading his humorous bullshit.
