If you have questions about the complaint,
please contact the person who filed it.

After I lost an Ebay auction for an authenticated Teal Teddy in April, Justin Tinker of JTS Enterprises, Inc. Lake Ridge, Virginia, contacted me about one authenticated by Peggy Gallagher that he was willing to sell. He had good Ebay feedback, and I eventually sent him $953 for the item. I have never received it. He first claimed that he had sent it to the wrong address. Then he sent me one supposedly authenticated by Becky Estensorro, but the number in the case was not the same as the number on the authentication card, and I returned it. He promised to send me a refund of double my shipping charges, plus a refund of the original cost. I said I only wanted the benefit of my bargain and my actual shipping costs ($20). Then he had an auto accident. Then he was in the hospital with appendicitis. Then his wife emailed me to the effect that she would send me the refund. That was back on June 1. To date I have received nothing. The latest is that he has sent me two emails asking if I have received the refund and claiming not to have heard from me. I email him every single day, and the status of all those emails remains "unread." I filed a complaint with the Internet Fraud Complaint Center back in June, but nothing has happened with that yet.

I started doing business with Scott the owner of HDC (Hoplessly Devoted Collecibltes) of Spokane, WA back in April. He purchased a authenticated 3rd Gen Bronty from me. The package I sent him was lost, so I had immidiatley sent him a replacement.. Then in July he wanted to purchase an authenticated Royal Blue Peanut, authenticated humphrey, and an authenticated orange digger from me. He said that he wanted me to send to him up front because of the package delay with the bronty. I was going to CT that weekend for my daughter's pageant. I had no money that weekend because someone had illegally drafted money from my bank account. So I took a chance and sent the beaneis to him. He was supposed to wire the money that Friday. I spoke with him a few times on Friday, and he said that the wire transfer was made. I then was stranded in CT with no money at 12 am with my 2 year old daughter waiting for a wire transfer that was never comming. He then calls my cell phone and leaves a message saying the wire was not made and that it would be done on Monday. Monday he didn't wire the money, he said he would send the money Net 30 meaning 30 days from the day of the receipt of the beanies, because I did not send the Orange digger becauste it had writing on the tush tag. The original deal was for the Royal Blue Peanut, he said if I didn't send the others at least send the Royal Blue Peanut. Net 30 was not the original plan for purchase of this beanie. This guy does not understand, I make a living off selling these beanies, because of this transaction it has hurt me financially. Anyway 30 days later I e-mail him, he says something about Humphrey's certificate of authenticity having something erased on it, however I never seen anything erased on anything, an I know I didn't erase anything. So I tell him to just send my merchandise back, it is now almost 2 weeks later he still has not sent my beanies or my money. He never responds to my e-mails, and when he does he gives me the run around and doesn't answer my questions. I honestly believe he is scamming me, he is leading me on and lying to me. I would like to get this resolved. His e-mail is hdc@ior.com.

It is true that Mr. Tinker took 2 months to send me the Bronty that I paid for in advance. I realized that after waiting 3 weeks and not getting replies due to no email response and one of his phone numbers being disconnected that I should have paid more attention to his NEGATIVE Ebay feedback rating. The first Bronty he mentions was never sent and this can be confirmed by his lack of tracking information, an insurance number that was never documented by USPS and the fact that documentation shows that he never filed a claim. Furthermore Mr. Tinker soon after lost his right to be an Ebay member and to this day is not a registered member. This recent deal has turned into a larger nightmare. It includes being sent altered certificates of authenticity sent from Justin Tinker and probable legal action pending against him by my client that noticed the alteration.  Mr. Tinker states that he never noticed that the comment on the certificate of authenticity was erased however the alteration was made just the same. I have contacted Peggy Gallagher and she confirms that the notation was erased. The evidence is very clear that Justin Tinker tried to pull a fast one and got caught. There are many details and a list of other traders that have had problems with Justin Tinker and I believe he fails to see that many of us have had enough of his loose and invasive practices such as listing on this board.  It should also be understood that his comments in regards to payment are entirely false. For further information I will be happy to respond to comments by email.  I also welcome anyone that has had a problem with NorthVaBeans to contact me as it is well known that other complaints have been made.

Sincerely,
JoJo

I was told to get in touch with you in regards to fraud connected with beanies bought from Justin Tinker. I have verification that four {with laminated COAs) are definitely fraudulent and were tampered with. I am now checking with Peggy Gallagher to see if her records match another four that do NOT have laminated tags, but that are suspected to have lasered tags. As soon as I get Peggy's answer back, I am sending them on to Becky Est. for examination. this represents over $9000.00 in purchased AUTHENTICATED beanies!

P.S. What information do you have on Justin (NorthVaBeans) out of Va.? He has refused to refund any monies after 7 days...is monitering his business phone with voice mail, refuses to answer any emails and has changed his home number........
I have filed with the IFCC. Is there anything else that I can do at this
time? Do I need to contact the attorney general in Virginia?
