I was recently contacted by a member of this community... RIE921 ... a Mr. Alex Etchison out of Arizona, Las Vegas and who knows where else. He posted a car for sale on this thread. A Red 1983 Porsche 911. I wired him a $2000 deposit for the car and never got the car or my money back. Please DO NOT send this person any money or you may end up in the exact same position that I am in right now. If he has contacted you to sell this car please let me know. Thanks.

And your name is?

Alex, any comment? There's always two sides to a story I'm assuming.

BEWARE of this man selling this car. I gave him a deposit three weeks ago and never got the car. He has been shuffling me around the entire time. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR OR WIRE HIM A DEPOSIT... If you have contact me immediately. He has now passed me off to a Law Firm and they have not returned the money either. Please be careful or you will lose your money.

Well unless someone posts any details on any thing relating to this or any other transaction, then I could care less; it's just rumor and hearsay until I see something in detail. I'm sure the person whose deposit I kept for trying to back out of the sale on my race car thinks I ripped him off too; I'm not saying something diabolical didn't happen in this case, but unless someone posts the details, or anyone else who claims to have been ripped off posts their details, there's nothing to talk about.

I AM TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE HERE .... why would I post this?????? I did not back out on the purchase of the car. The guy took a wired deposit on good faith. He was suppose to get the car to me the following week and then kept coming up with a bunch of reasons for why it wasn't delivered. Every week it was something else. Finally I simply asked him for a driver's license or something proving that he was who he said he was. He then sent me an e-mail to contact a law firm in Salt Lake City. In the process he also changed his phone number. The Law Firm was suppose to wire me the money yestereday and now no one from the Law Firm is returning my calls. When and IF i ever get my money back from this individual I will post that fact. Until then this man has taken my money in good faith, not delivered the goods bought and has failed to return the money. I am SIMPLY WARNING people on this site to beware of this guy. Why would someone post this for ANY OTHER REASONS. DO NOT WIRE THIS GUY MONEY. Geez dude, give me a break. That is THE FACTS and there is NOTHING ELSE TO IT.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time, I'm trying to get someone to post something useful instead of blind accusations under anonymous names because in the online world it's quite common for business competitors or just someone you pissed off at some point in the past on a forum to start posting things like this to harm the other person where they may or may not be monitoring.

So, that being the case, I have reason to be leery as I would for any other post from someone no one knows. Please keep us updated on what happens with the law firm and the money. What is their involvement anyway? Did they broker the sale or own the car?

I have NO IDEA why he involved a Law Firm to give me my money back, he could have VERY SIMPLY wired my money back to me. He had my bank account information from when I wired the money to him. I will gladly let you all know when I get my money back, but it looks highly unlikely to me at this point. Believe me I am as shocked as you would be that Alex would pull this on me. I totally thought he was a really cool guy, very knowledgeable, etc. Why else would I have wired the guy the money. I don't know him from the man on the moon. I have never met him, just e-mail and phone. If anyone knows where he lives I would be very appreciative. He told my friend that he was going through a divorce and was moving to Las Vegas. Have any of you actually ever met Alex or done any business with him??? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Take care.
