Warning:
This guy has been selling used crap here on this board for quite a while now. I purchased a TV not long ago from him and it blew out after a week or rather should I say after the TV is on for more than 6 hours the tube goes out. Mr. Pakistan would never answer my calls nor emails. After I threw the TV out I answered an ad for a another TV. It was the same Pakistan dude but was using a different email and cell number. He hung up on me. He also posts on Korea Herald, Worknplay, Englishspectrum, etc... using different emails and numbers.

Thanks just my two cents.

Yes, he sold me a moped that has needed a lot of repair pretty much right after I bought it. Still works after nine months, but the repairs cost enough for me to have bought a bigger, better, newer bike. His response was that it was my fault and I must have broken it. It's not and I didn't. He told me not to say bad things about him on Dave's ESL.
I wish I hadn't been so gullible when I bought that moped.

this is the kind of stuff that SHOULDN'T be on here. I thought this was a community, people selling things as they go, buying as they arrive. Not someone posing as a teacher and posting on here to support their business.

This board isn't just used by teachers, but expats in other fields as well.

I don't really see what the big problem is The dude is just off-loading some stuff on a board that gets a lot traffic. Stuff that many teachers need/want. If you buy something and it breaks, well that's the danger anybody faces buying second-hand items.

As I said, I have bought a couple of things from him and I have been happy with them. They have been reasonabley priced with delivery.

I think the problem is that

a) a lot of his stuff is junk. I bought a TV from him that didn't work right too. Luckily I got a refund, minus shipping expenses, after having to argue with him

b) he's a commercial enterprise. he does this for profit and that is not what this board is intended for.

c) he has a million aliases and sells stuff all over the Korean buy sell boards using different names and phone numbers. You never know who you're dealing with
