Kirby Strickland Beware! He did it to us...might do it to you, too! Williston North Dakota
To make a long story short, my fiance was looking for a car part online. Mr. Strickland responded to his message, stating he had the needed part. The check was sent and cashed, but nothing was ever received from Mr. Strickland but a stack of emails full of BS. Despite several requests and lots of patience on our end, he never provided proof that anything was sent to us (proof that he said several times he possessed).
The correspondence between us and Mr. Strickland went on for several months, with no result. We've never received the merchandise or a refund of our money, both of which he claimed had been sent on several occasions.
A fraud report is being filed with the North Dakota Attorney General's Office - Consumer Complaint Division.
I realize that we may never recover a dime from this thief, but I want to make sure that the information is out there to warn others not to do business with Kirby Strickland. I strongly suspect that he's one of those parasites that supplements his income by pulling petty online scams.
IF Mr. Strickland is the honest person he's been trying to make us believe he is, I will be more than happy to update this report as soon as he makes good on his end of the deal.
Before anybody on here flames us for being naive and dealing with an unknown individual, let me just say at the time we were new to Internet trading, and the lesson's been learned. That doesn't excuse Mr. Strickland's behavior. He knows what he's done, and that he owes us the money.

Partial payment received

This afternoon, a check was received from Mr. Strickland for the amount of $63. Why he only sent partial payment, I don't know. But it's nice to at least see something after so much time and trouble. The balance due is now $20.65. After my previous update, I reviewed the series of emails that I was submitting as documentation for the fraud report. I noticed that Mr. Strickland had claimed in those emails that he had sent two MONEY ORDERS, not checks. As he has made the statement that he has a cancelled check in his possession and has threatened to use it to pursue legal action, it will be interesting to see what he comes up with.

Kirby Strickland He claims he sent two checks as a refund

Received email from Mr Strickland today. He claims he sent two checks as a refund, one of which he states has been cashed. No check has ever been received at this end of the transaction. I have offered to review his copy of the cashed check, and to provide sample signatures at his request. He also said he is sending out a new refund check, and then intends to take legal action against US for trying to scam HIM by cashing his check and then requesting a new one. I will add updates as new info is available. If/when this is resolved to everyone's satisfaction, I will add that information as well.
