he hasnt responded?????? Yeah I saw over 100 posts but that really dosnt mean much,was just after someone to say."yeah I know him,or,yeah I have bought off him" but noone has.
Besides GF,you have well over 1000 posts but after looking at your avatar pic I wouldnt send you $1000
OK here goes: I'm one of the Col's from the Sunshine Coast mentioned earlier. Bought a 12m Switchy off Buzz last year and after several emails asking questions I didn't hesitate in buying off him. Kite arrived within a week with no problems. Brand new, well packaged and I saved heaps - yeah I know I should be supporting my local shop etc. etc. but I've bought enough kiting equipment locally and still do, so I don't feel guilty. Peace.

when did you message him? if it was days ago like I think it was, and he hasn't responded, then me thinks he is probably a scammer. The fact he is replying on this thread is an attempt to appear legit to any other potential victims. I hope I am wrong about Buzz, but It all seems a bit too good to be true.
No bennie,he had been away,have just been incontact.
seems like a happy ending then. Sorry if any offence taken Buzz. You can't blame people for being paranoid with stories like those who have been burned by alibaba.com going around

No probs ... but i agree with GF, could've all been handled a lot better ... lotofwind could've simply asked me direct in a message if I could show legitimacy somehow. Instead of dragging my 'cred' thru the wringer on the forum ! Anyway, that's history now - all is forgiven and forgotten...
However, in hindsight - it's probably a good thing now, as everyone knows.
And YES, it is a happy ending as lotofwind has agreed to purchase (using PayPal) !
PS: hopefully, my ribs will hold-up this coming season, and I'll only have 2 or 3 second-hands kites to sell next year ...

so you got a happy ending from a dude in thailand.
^^^^^ita all global warmings fault,,,oh and the financial stock crash,,,oh and aids,yeah its all aids fault. The world would be so nice if America didnt exist! oopppss....who said that.
For those intersested,have sent funds via paypal and am waiting for a responds that he has recieved. Looking forwared to that happy ending I really need a happy ending
hey lotofwind, how does paypal protect you? it's still just like giving someone the money (and being charged a commision) and waiting for it to turn up isn't it? I've used it on ebay but only thought you had protection when it had the paypal guarantee on it..
My kite turned up in the mail today 8 days after I transfered money to Buzz in Thailand. Big sigh of relief to open the box and find exactly what Buzz said it was.Very Happy
Anyone that was thinking of buying one of his kites as he upgrades to newer gear,dont hesitate,saved me around $700 ...stoked He posted it soon as he received the transfere, he even went halves in postage. Thanks again Buzz,good deal
So yeah I guess I did get a happy ending off a guy in Thailand
Good stuff (finally) ... hope you guys do get some wind soon ... been blowing (unusually) nearly every day here for the past coupla weeks ...
Ok then, who wants to buy my hardly used 16mtr XBow IDS 2009 ?
New price around aud$2,640 - I'm willing to let it go for just $1,200 - still crispy and great colours (orange with cobalt blue and white) ... bag, bar and lines, IDS replacement line (plastic covered), stopper ball, manual and repair kit.
The IDS XBow is a much improved kite ... turns heaps better without the pulleys on the bar ... very well behaved ... boosts huge ... great for a big fella in lite winds !
