    UPDATE: I sent Patrick a final message on Friday and never heard anything back from him at all. I seriously doubt we will see him on this board again, but be warned. DO NOT deal with this person. He basically stole my T5 lighting rig. I never received any payment from him I feel the need to warn other reefers. I know the following information about him:

    Board Name: hickoryhollow
    Name: Patrick
    Profession: Truck Driver (he drives for a chemical company)
    Location: He is from Holland, AR (outside of Conway on Hwy. 37)

    This is the last time I will update this thread, but I wanted to make sure that those of you who frequent the Buy/Sell/Trade forum are aware of the outcome of this situation. Thanks.

    This guys name is Patrick and he is a new reefer and a nice guy. However, I sold him my Icecap T5 lighting rig with no $$$ down when I upgraded to my Halides. He requested to make payments and this was fine with me since I had dealt with him before. I had even given him around 8 coral frags to help him get his tank started up. He was supposed to make his first payment on the lights last week, but I never heard from him. Another week has gone by and he has not responded to my attempts to contact him. I guess this is what I get for being trusting and trying to help out a fellow reefer get his tank started. Patrick if you are reading this please get in touch with me and let me know what is going on. I gave you a lot of coral to get your tank started, and let you take the lights without paying anything up front. At this point you need to pay for the lighting rig or return it to me please. I will continue to update this thread as appropriate. I guess there will always be a few bad apples in the hobby, but I'm hoping HickoryHollow is not one of them. He is a truck driver, so I am hoping he has just been out driving the past two weeks. I just wanted to make everybody else on the board aware of the "possibility" that is guy is not legit so no other reefers get burned. Thanks.
