JacksonDean Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hi all, I have ordered two different sets of decals from modelarstwoalexender and spent quite a lot of money on them I received a confirmation email and told him my preferred choice of payment, I have paid him and it has been months and still nothing I have tried emailing and ringing him and nothing. Has anyone else bought decals of him and had the same problems ? Regards Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pin Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 You should have googled before you paid. This store is known to be highly unreliable http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234928673-giodecals-on-httpmodelarstwoalexanderauctivacommercecomprivacyaspx/ http://airlinercafe.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=7537&d=50 etc. etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacksonDean Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 I never even thought to look about it after looking on his website and everything seemed right so I would have never thought until now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feoffee2 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Doubt you will ever get them. He is nothing more than a fraudster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacksonDean Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 Oh right really can he not get done or anything ? Or can Is there no way to get my money back off him ? Guess I better look at other decals then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I better look at other decals then He lives in Poland but no one is sure were. Doubt anything would happen even if you reported him.if you payed by PayPal you should be able to get your money back. I would look elsewhere. There are many much more reliable makers.

Tiger331 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Looks like I had a lucky escape too. I was looking to order a set of decals I could not seem to obtain from elsewhere. The link to this website failed to operate so I was ultimately unable to order or pay. Based on what I have now researched glad it would not work. Note sure this topic is in the right section though ?. It may be better to transfer it to the 'Bad Traders' section although I appreciate that is normally 'reserved' for tackling Bad or potentially Bad BM Traders for the protection of our membership. I also appreciate that since he seems to deal specifically with airliner decals, this may be a better 'catchment' area for warning prospective buyers.

JacksonDean Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Yes I paid by PayPal I will have to see if I can get the money back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great Non-Arriving Decals Scam is specifically aimed at airliner modellers and "Bad Traders" is for people trading on Britmodeller so the thread is better here. If the moderators agree it might help to have a pinned thread along the lines of the "Airliners.net and copyright" one. I've known about this fraud for four or five years and it's alarming to think that people are still falling victim to it. I'm surprised Paypal are still prepared to do business with the guy given the number of disputes there must be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacksonDean Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Ok I understand, it's just very annoying and I would have never expected this really from airline decals but I suppose money is money Thank you for your comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyonjet Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Yes I paid by PayPal I will have to see if I can get the money back PayPal has a 180 day time limit, so look for their Resolution Centre and start a dispute against him. It's fairly simple to do (I've done it before to get a refund of my money from him), but the whole thing is just so damned annoying.

Phone Phixer Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'm in a similar situation. Ordered a couple of sets in June, nothing yet. I had seen the history of this guy, but some had reported actually receiving their decals. So I paid via Paypal so I could get my money back. It's a pain, as he is the only one advertising the Geodecals Westjet B737 "Magicplane" that I would like to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacksonDean Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 I've just sent a message via PayPal about getting my money back it should take a few days it says, but I agree he does do some very good decals to be bad he is unreleable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadRicky Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 It's so strange. He could do really amazing business all around the world but he prefer to be so badly remembered... Strange people in the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK4m Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 There's a fault in phone number on their www main site. Polish phone numbers (both static and cellular) have NINE digits. You have to omit the 22 and dial 506 directly after 48 - I hope it will help. Cheers Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyonjet Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Having ordered some decals, not received anything, then got a refund through PayPal a few years ago, I was tempted to look at the dreaded website again at the start of the year. Noticing that a few people had got lucky (despite the majority not getting lucky), I chanced my arm again in early March. The status of my order quickly changed to awaiting shipping. And that's how it stayed, so I raised a dispute through PP. They have found in my favour and refunded my money. Best of all, due to our falling exchange rate compared to the Euro, I've made £1.51 Dave (who will not be trying again!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busnproplinerfan Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Has anyone dealt with Giodecals? I think they are sold through http://modelarstwoalexander.auctivacommerce.com/Default.aspx They have some decals I want and I left a few emails on their contact but they never reply. There is a phone number to Poland I tried but it doesn't work, one to many numbers my operator told me. I went through their cart and check out and have been waiting a few days for them to send an invoice. I asked Drawdecal about them and he said he had the same thing happen. Any help etc.?
