Sent money for him to buy me a CPU from his local MicroCenter.. he never delivered.
CCityinstaller was the Seller on December 26, 2010 HardForum
I sent Josh some cash to buy me a CPU from his local Microcenter. We had done lots of trading in the past, and I considered him a friend, so I figured I could trust him. However, the day he was to go to Microcenter for me, he claimed his wallet was stolen and someone used his debit card to drain his bank account of all available funds. Since then, it's been one excuse after another as to why he hasn't paid me back.

Bought a AMD SD 3700+ and ask him to ship 4 VGA card totalling $475 but never been shipped
CCityinstaller was the Seller on October 6, 2007 AnandTech
More 3 months and package never been shipped. Lie about item being sent back to his plave twice.
He\'s a member of a throll now
See this page http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.aspx?catid=45&threadid=1977325&enterthread=y
Currently I\'m trying to contact his local police department to see what they can do about it as I have all his detail.
Response from CCityinstallerWhere to begin? This guy\'s a joke. He is NOT located in the US. I have conducted a few trades with him in the past without trouble. He asked me to help him out with getting some used parts since people would not ship internationally. (Now I know why). The VGA cards were not mine, he had them shipped to me from other people all over the country. Then he asks me to ship the items \"Broken Computer Parts, RMA Only\", so he doesn\'t have to pay a bribe to his customs officials. I informed him that this is a felony in the US, as you are breaking Customs laws. I shipped the packaged TWICE, with it being returned both times undeliverable. The second time it was open and missing items. I informed him and the PO informed me that they were only liable for the amount of the shipping, which was around $70 if I remember correctly. I have taken copies of all the emails to my local PD and discussed it with them in detail, and was told I have nothing to worry about, I\'ve committed no crime. I would HIGHLY suggest NOT dealing with this guy.October 7, 2007

Some items were damaged in shipping, and an active insurance claim is in progress with no information from the seller in many weeks. I sent a motherboard back to him after having some trouble. He offered to help and flash the BIOS, I also sent my CPU with it for him to test. I requested the return of said items but have yet to recieve a response.

I purchased many items from him with a total of approximately $600 including the cost of shipping. Some items were damaged in shipping. He has an active claim with USPS shipping insurance right now. I now have some damaged (but working) goods, no motherboard or CPU, and no information in many weeks. I have tried calling, texting, emailing both his emails, and facebook messaging him. I would really like this resolved and I will gladly remove this negative heat rating when the matter is resolved.
Response from CCityinstallerPayPal dispute was filed and ruled in my favor. I have asked that the negative be removed since I was not at fault, but have not had a response.October 15, 2011

Purchased 3gb of memory with heatsinks
CCityinstaller was the Seller on November 14, 2010 HardForum
Josh or CCity is a great guy. Very honest, and is great with communication. He is interested in also developing a great working relationship with who he buys/sells from. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone if they were thinking about purchasing an item from him. If your thinking about buying an item from him, do it as you won't regret it.
Thanks again JoshNovember 29, 2010

Sold Josh a DDR3 4GB kit and a Biostar 785g HD mobo
CCityinstaller was the Buyer on July 1, 2010 HardForum
I don't know why that guy gave Josh a negative, it must be a huge scam because this guy (CCinstaller/Josh) was solid with buying from me.
He never asked me to ship first, he never seemed shady or anything like that. He did a split payment for me 40% paypal 60% newegg cash and paid promptly and without any issues.
Prior to purchasing he remained in constant communication with me as I waited for the newegg code which only processes during NE business hours.. he thought there was an error and without me asking him he PM'd with updates to assure me it was purchased.. early Monday morning it arrived as promised and I shipped his gear.
None of the delay was his fault, just the natural process of dealing with newegg on the weekends. (1.5 days on a weekend while shopping on newegg is not a delay BTW, everyone knows that newegg only processes orders on weekends if it's over certain amount, I assume they do that so people do not cancel large orders due to hours of "Processing" which could cause people to cancel)
Once again, I'm not sure he deserved that negative or not... but as far as I am concerned, this guy is legit and was only trying to help someone that he did deals with before and he got burned for it. I would deal with him again and would do so without any fear of being scammed.
Thanks again dude... email the admin here, show your case and maybe you can get that - strike removed.
(LOL, I didnt realize how old that negative was.. I failed. I didn't know Heat started displaying negs 1st then most recent.. I thought the neg was new... )July 11, 2010
