Mad RCDiscounters.com is a fraud---WATCH OUT!!!

Watch out for these guys....they plain SUCK!

They have a very pleasant website that moves and flows better than most. They are one the few OnLine stores where I could find Fioroni parts....

Now the bad part.....I placed an order on March 23rd, After a week or so I sent them a cpuple of emails trying to find out the status of the order....NO REPLIES......

Then I call them from the phone # on their "Contact Info" page.......DISCONNECTED

About 10 days after I had placed the order I get a cryptic email stating my order has status has changed to "processing" (April 3rd)

April 13, and still no product, nor will tey return any "Specific" email requests....I have had one other correspondence with them, I got an unsolicited email advising me that 2 of my items are backordered and should be in this week.

I have asked for my money back, for 2 weeks....with no responses.....

And to top it off, they are running the Biz out of a PMB at a mail box joint.....A buddy of mine in Burbank CA went to the listed address and found this info for me....

I filed a fraud complaint with PayPal, but they could be of no help because the scum bag has no $$ in his account.

If you are Nick Zohrabi of RCDISCOUNTERS.COM you owe me almost $300.00

Avoid the crooks like the plauge!!!!!!!!!

To get the physical street address, just call the post office and ask them for it. By law, they have to give it to you, ONLY if it is being used for a business. Personal ones they will not give you the info.

Also, do a WHOIS on the domain name. You can usually pop other personal info.

Hope this helps.

If you need help finding out someones personal information, for contact purposes, let me know. This is what I do for a living, well sort of. Locating people is just a small part of what we do.....

That sucks. I have ordered from them a couple of times without any problems. Guess I will have to stop using them now. Hopefully you can get your money back or get your products.

Perhaps you would drop him an email and tell him the same thing......

I don't understand why people(vendors) need to be such Asses..



Guess they don't think people will talk....

I am sorry to hear your story, I went thru the same problem and after I contacted Paypal two days later the items showed up at my door. Next time I need to order I will stay far away from them
