Scammed By Nick Claborn (Claborn5)
 
Just want to alert everybody of Nick Claborn user name is Claborn5 from Albany Kentucky. I recently went 2200 miles round trip to pick up a car ad # 1258964 that was supose to be a 10.90 car. It was supose to be a solid car with a 6 out of 10 paint job. Also was supose to have worked heads and a bigger than 540 lift cam in it. I was supose to get door panels with it and the tranny was supose to have a bad modulator or valve body. I thought I was going to get a good deal for once so that is why I drove so far. I paid $2350.00 for the car and it was supose to have $7500.00 in parts on it. He bought it for $2000.00 and just wanted to make $350.00 on it and get rid of it. So we drove up the cars paint was a spray can paint job with runs all over. It didnt even move which he said he drove it and worked just fine but the guy he bought it from said it didn't. The drivers side door is dented and the floor pans are rusted through. So we got it home minus the door panels which I still dont have the motor is basically stock, no big cam the heads arent worked and no way there is $7500 in parts. I cant even sell it for $2000 because I'm honest about the car. I have it listed on here ad #1266584 and 1265349 his address is 549 MartinCross Street Albany KY 42602, please check everything before you buy something from him. His most recent ad he sold was another mustang that was also all wrong. I talked to the original owner of the car and he said he lied about the motor, tranny, and conditon of the car huh sounds like a pattern. Please call if you have any more questions about him or his cars. My name is Jon Chapman from Watertown SD phone number is 605-868-2420, let me know if you have also delt with him so we can get him off here.

THEN WHY DID YOU BUY THE DAMN THING.AND THEN COME ON HERE CRYING ITS A BAD DEAL.DRIVE THERE,LOOK AT IT.AND THEN HAND OVER THE MONEY.I DON'T UNDRSTAND YOU PEOPLE......

I had already sent him his money. The day I went 2200 miles to get it guess what he wasn't there and he wasn't about to give my money back. See I guess I live in a town where you can trust people but I guess in this case you can't. What was I supose to do leave the car there and be out the POS car and my money. At least I can try and part out the car and get some money back. I guess I didnt come on here crying as you say I came on here to alert everyone that Nick is lying about the vehicles he is selling on here. Maybe you should look at the stuff he is selling and contact the previous owner and ask them about there car. People like you are morans for not alerting everyone to this problem. Hopefully he scams you too. I was always taught to be honest and if you werent you got punished for it. Maybe you want more people to screwed over by Nick. Well he is a liar and now he should be punished by getting kicked of here. Maybe I should have taken the motor apart right in his yard to see it didnt have the cam and roler lifters he said it had. Ya next time that is what I will do. What a moran

You are very welcome. Sorry for getting so pissy I know I messed up I just thought maybe this guy was honest, but your dad is right and I have heard that myself before. I am just still so pissed about it and I just get more mad about it everyday. I cant believe people do this how can they just all out lie. How stupid is that sorry again I got so defensive but like I said I just dont understand why he pulls this crap. Its not his first time. I have been watching him since I bought my car and I know for a fact he lied about another mustang he sold. Anyway thanks for posting.

Well just a guess but if they would've came here first they wouldn't have gotten scammed and probably wouldn't have posted here. But just a wild guess what do you think :?: :roll:

I think most of the people on RJ have no idea there is even a forum. There is a tab to bring you here but there are 610,000+ registered users on RJ but only 32,076 registered users on the forum. Thats only .05%, pretty low numbers in my opinion.

Yep, Chris I agree. I think most people get a little too excited when they can buy something and save $$$ and don't check it out a little further.
Like it's the last one at that price.

sir, i say go ahead and go after him. people like him arent gonna square up jack shit. just my 2 cents. I hope you take him for all hes got. im not a victim, just been a victim of others like him before. I once sold a guy a power steering setup off of a 67 bronco on ebay and specifically posted i didnt guarantee it to bolt right up to anything. well a guy from indiana bought it for $590, then filed a complaint with paypal saying it wouldnt fit his 71 bronco. anyways they gave him his money back straight from my checking account with MAJOR protest from me and he NEVER SHIPPED MY PARTS BACK. i drove up there to settle the score from tennessee and he had moved out of his trailer park days before that and havent been able to locate him since. No doubt hes got my parts on his rig right now. but good luck to you guys, sorry to vent like this lol
