anyone who is interested in knowing,

i didn't know Robin/Ribz before the day i saw this giveaway thread, no prior interaction nothing... I posted that am in need of some deans and heat shrinks and the guy responded within 4 hours..told me that he has run out of the deans but will still try to source one male connector and will also include some M3 screws and nuts because i might need them as am building a multirotor.

after this conversation, I went busy in academics soo couldn't visit forum for about two days,.. when i did visit I had a PM stating that my package is ready for local pickup along with the address, and the directions to reach that place..i asked for Robin's no and told him that my friends would be picking up the stuff instead of me and that he would have to keep the stuff for a few more days as my friends would be coming on 3rd or 4th of march..he readily agreed and told me not to worry.

now fast forward to 3rd of march, I started calling the guy at around 2pm onwards, he wasn't picking up,...I panicked and basically became a pain in his ass dialing his no again and again. Robin responded around 4pm and apologized for not picking up the call as he was busy and agreed to see my friends at the wee hours of 8pm.
now come the rather unexpected part, remember I asked for a few pairs of Deans and few feets of heat shrink, the guy gave 6M of 6mm heat shrink and about 40 M3 screws just to apologize for not having able to source the dean connector...wayy more than we agreed to.

I narrated all this story just to state one point, in my humble opinion, I don't think a guy who is giving stuff for free just because he got them for free or very cheap,... going through all the pains of packaging, shipping and being responsible for its delivery that too going pro Bono will not haggle for 800 INR that too when his reputation is at stake. Am not passing any judgments here, just sharing a piece of my mind.

P.S.: Thanx a lot Ribz, it was nice knowing you

Amen!

I too am wondering...
I bought a heat gun from Robin.
It was just JUNK. All broken up from inside.
But he charged me only Rs 200.
That's not bad. Except that he didn't tell me upfront.
If you get a Hot Air Gun for 200, that can be fixed with some MSEAL, cant complain...

Also got a line follower robot kit from him for 500.
This was to get my 88 year old dad interested without involving soldering.
I got a box of parts without one word of instructions.
Was fairly upset, but have since found details on the net.

I think Robin is not actually cheating people
He's just getting some cheap stuff (cheap price and very cheap quality) and fobbing it off on unsuspecting eager buyers attracted by the low price and small freebies.
Many have received his freebies, incl me!

I had refrained from commenting earlier for two reasons:
1. I ordered something from him at junk price, so i cant complain if i got junk.
2. His Quad flew away. Thats more than enough punishment for any sins he may have committed!

I wish him well with the following suggestions/requests:
1. Return the 800. I feel that the claim is ok. Refuse postage refund.
2. Be clear upfront. If you're selling Chink junk, say so. I see that you have not given a clear answer to Ashok Baijal's queries...
3. If you are in residence, College may take a dim view of your activities, with rather serious consequences...

I also got a free packet containing the 6mm heat shrinks.

For my queries on the LCD offer I got silence as my answer! His recent offer of LED domes for free has nothing to do with aero modelling. What is his objective? If he is trying to establish himself as a benevolent seller on RCIndia, he is doing more damage than good to himself by these gimmicks. One thing he has clearly established that he deals in near junk quality goods.

I agree  with all who have recieved free stuff and stuff for cheap and im happy for you, but what if you ordered something brand new paid for it and then recieved it damaged,then you are told you will get a refund or replacement and then finally you get nothing but are blamed for damaging it .

Look at this guys mr.robin,roby ribz braught the tx for 1000rs says he invested a lot in it what a cheat  hahaha ,i thaught he braught it brand new , may be he damaged the rx too and sold it to me .......he also told me that he lost the trims while flying ,in the grass then again thats a lie.....see here www.rcindia.org/for-sale-completed/well-used-spektrum-dx5e-for-sale-rs-1000/

i deal in junk qualities ashok?
all my products are a turnigy, sunnysky or a near branded,
i can't imagine you said that because either the shiping guy damaged it, or roman himself did,
i have the proof picture of shipping items with date an hour before shipping,

the products i sell are as good as stores, but with little or no margin,

i'm upset that you said so even when you never had any trade experience with me,
a deal out of hundred turned wrong, because of the non co-operative client,

the client was made clear that the deal was a combo deal and receiver, strap and freebies will come along, i told him that i bought the receiver for 800,

and i'm sorry, i won't refund if you operated perfectly working radio, you've been told this if you remember

all crap this guy is junk him self still lying.....why? The box i recieved was fine how come the rx was damaged,he is still telling lies about the deal he made with me no combo no nothing he cheated me . ignore his emotional talks that also is junk, robin,roby,ribz now he should be called junky hahahahaha

Why dont you post them? Well you wont, bcoz you havent posted pics for most of your sale threads, and you will come back saying that you cannot bcoz they are high res pics and this forum doesnt accept it. Well, dont know what our idi ameen is doing for all those pictureless sale threads.

you know what romandsousa, i haven't seen a filthy bad lier than you in my life,
i swear to GOD's name i shipped the perfectly fine receiver,
and this person is just a bag of lies from everything he said,

i promise i'm not going to refund you a penny
and ashok, only because you hate me, and post shit about me here, and support my rivals, i'm assuming all your assumptions are baised
i've got enough admirers and i'm happy here
i'm not going to reply to any of your posts now onwards

post 21 and  23  in this same thread tells you who is the liar ,if he shipped the coorect rx how come i got it damaged isnt it supposed to be brand new you want have those few admirers......ribz  stop threathing me in your pm's that you will visit my place why are you getting aggressive over 800rs you keep it use it in a nice way ,im just posting what has happened And the truth.
relax peace be with you  .... dont want your 800rs refund or your replacements ........ and close this topic .

  i will now hack the rx and tx and improve my knowledge in electronics with help from the forum and research.......god bless you

Bilal- glad ure happy, giving freebies is good deed.
flip side, Giving freebies is strategic and as simple as buying chelas. (Little investment which would save larger investments).
 I remember a LHS that gave many freebies here initially to silence the seniors and nobody could complain or bash it here tho they sold almost junk. Now they don't get freebies.

KKIyer Sir - Please don't use word chink.. I hope u were tryin to say cheap junk and it was a typo. Ty

Ribs - U are giving freebies to get admirers? Politician?
U still need to upload pics. Adhere by forum rules, pics are important.
I will throw u a tip- If ur pic is too high resolution, send an email of pics to urself and the emailed pics will have its size reduced and make it uploadable here.

Roman- if it was speedpost, they could have opened it, in my case most delhi parcels are opened, buying things without seeing pics in advance is not advised unless u have prior experience with the seller but mistake happens with everyone.

I would only wish u both come to an understanding since both have taken a firm stand, blame the post and share the loss. :/
