I don't understand why people would even bother dealing with a known criminal at all (greed?), why not just boycott him and save yourself the hassle?  You can be sure he reads all this, he seems to have thrived on the notoriety in the past. Kudos to the admin team for keeping him off the board lately!

Because some members have worked out deals with him.  I have not dealt with him nor would I (does seem a little shady) but I have yet to hear a story from a MAACA member that was screwed by him.  I know a CGCC member that grabbed a great deal on a Star Wars vid, most members (including myself) passed because we all thought it was a fake.  I think gorydeath met him for a deal (not sure if it went through).  

I also question your "known criminal" statement... that kinda of comment on a public forum can get you in trouble unless you know for sure he has a criminal record.

I don't want him posting his spam here, he has a bad name but I don't think we need the weekly "he's at it again..." posts either.  I'm kinda bored with them.

I think it's important for all people ( not just the members of this board ) to know what this person is up NOW as well as what he has done in the past.

You might not feel it's important, but until you actually WANT the game that is fraudulent, or feel the pure fustration of dealing with this person - you have no idea what this is about. It might seem trivial, but I for one, feel the need to alert others ( especially people/members from out of town ). I think he secretly gets off on the fraudulent ads on Craigslist.... and yes, I'm about 98 percent positive it's him.

Would you rather see threads about how "so and so" was blatantly ripped off by this person?

How do you know the ads are frauds?  Just because he does not return an email or your phone call means he's a a** not a fraud.  Members have bought from him, he does actually sell machines.  He mis-represents them... but that's why you should always see a machine before you buy unless you trust the seller.  

Nobody here has posted that they were ripped off by him... that I remember anyway.  Just "I heard from a guy about his buddies uncle's french maid's son being ripped off by someone who resembles this guy".

Please, if there is a member who got the shaft from Mr Anderson... tell me.  

I don't want to seem like I'm defending the guy, I just hear over and over how bad he is but the only people who have had direct contact have worked out deals that they were comfortable with.  I have yet to see a "I got screwed by Mr. Anderson" thread.

I find the weekly "Anderson Report" to be spam, I'll keep on ignoring it though if people feel there is real benefit from beating the same old horse over and over again.

I know people here have bought stuff from him - hell, I've bought stuff from him!

I wasn't the person who got ripped off by him, but he did re-sell a machine that I bought from him, to someone in the US on eBay - USING PHOTOS OF MY ACTUAL MACHINE ( with an exact description of MY machine! ). So there you go. That really bothered me. All I could think about was that poor buyer...

The bottom line is it really isn't any of my business, but I feel as a "good person" I'm responsible to let people know about him, as his ads have flooded Kijiji, Craiglist and eBay recently.

So if you're not interested - don't read. Some perspective buyers might be.
