That poop pipe dipshit Knappenburglar has done some stupid stuff, but bragging about ripping of RogueFab for a free bender using eBay's crooked policies is a new low. :mad3:

I don't know the story of this guy, but y'all are reading in a bit too much. He said that RogueFab escalated with eBay, not him. That's not the same as him using their policies to rip someone off. And how would you think it was mail fraud?

The dumbest thing I see here is trying to run that pneumatic jack off a pancake compressor.

He ended up with a "free bender", Rogue ended up with no money and no bender. IDGAF who what in the middle there, that is the situation now. That makes him a thief.

From what I saw, the seller opted not to send a return label. The seller escalated the complaint. The entire premise of being a thief doesn't hold, unless he was sent a return label and never sent it back.
 
0:20 "I made a mistake, I assumed it was going to show up assembled and powder coated...because it was $230 more..."
0:40 " ...in the very bottom of the description...it said it was a weld-together kit..."

So douchbag gets the standard kit on eBay, realizes he could have bought it cheaper on the Rogue website, and asks for the difference back. Rogue says "No, dumbass. Ship it back, and we'll refund you."

Crook says "No, send me a label, you pay ($300 total) shipping both ways because I changed my mind!" EBay as usual backs the buyer, yanks the money back, and Alex Ballgargler ends up with both a bender and his money.

He's scum, and I hope other vendors take note that Alex Knappenberger steals.

You seem to have skipped the part where he offered to pay for return shipping in order to get a full refund.
 
The FB links both worked for me right now. The first link is to Piratebook 4x4 group. I am not a member but could still see the video.

Fawk that tool and fawk e-bay.
 
If you dont spend much time on Facebook motor-head groups, you wouldnt know about this guy. He might have tried to estabolish himself on the old site, but it was short lived.

Anyways..... He built a buggy/bouncer rig totally out of HREW and documented it on the FB's. He spammed progress on the thing for months to every gear-head group you could think of; rock buggies, piratebook4x4, LS-tuners, sloppy mechanics...... you name it. He made crazy claims about it too(500 HP on a stock 6.0L) and people flamed the shit out of him. Called it the poop pipe buggy (i think his old FB page was called that too??). Regardless, the build came to an end and shockingly the thing was a piece of shit. Ran like shit, flexed like shit, shit falling off it, its was a dumpster fire. He kept posting questions looking for advice on how to fix stuff and people mercilessly mocked him. He full awm rage quit FB like 3 months ago but now hes back. His name is Alex Knaperberger (??) or something like that.

Gotcha. I don't Facebook, but I recall the thread on the old site. Funny that a poop pipe buggy is revolutionary, most rigs here are schd40.:laughing:
 
Why is he called the poop pipe thief?

He loudly built his buggy out of pipe, and I'm calling him a thief over this Rogue deal.

As far as return shipping...yeah, he's not clear about that. He mentions it briefly at 2:20, and in the same sentence says "Fuck that, I'm not paying return shipping...".

Maybe you think for a moment he was going to pay $150 return shipping so that he could welch on the eBay deal he made, then Rogue hurt his feelings so he's justified in screwing them out of the whole price instead of only $300...

Again- he has his $1200 AND a bender. I'm not really interested in the details of eBay contracts that got there.

Yep....up until now he was just viewed and called a dumbass. Now everytime the asshat pops up it's going to be a game of wack a moe. He fucked himself and made a vendor pay for it.

Well fuck knuckle....the internet has made the world a small place and I guarantee that this will cost you a lot more in the end....and rightfully so.
 
That dude and whatever that shitty supposed offroad company that constantly spams memes about themselves that make zero fucking sense are why I just ended up leaving the Pirate 4x4 group on FB. Nevermind how much of a garbage format FB is for any kind of discussion.

But yeah, that guy is a complete fucktard and attention whore and everyone constantly feeds into the attention whoring making it 10x worse.
 
Few years back I was selling 300k a year on ebay. I was even on @linkslidenews once after ebay bought out pp and they fucked us all.

I had bought a bulk load of A-stars clothing merch. Was selling hats for 15 bux with free shipping. Toss the hats in usps flatrate bag and off they go. After postage, ebay fees, pp fees etc, I was clearing like 3 bux per. Shipped a hat to somewhere in the northeast, jersey/ny I cant remember now exactly. Douche bag flatbiller says the hat is damaged and wants a refund. I said sure, send it back and I will refund you. (Back then the buyer had to prove it was our fault to get free return shipping). I told him if he destroyed the hat and sent me a picture, I would refund him 100%. You should have seen the shit storm he tried to create on ebay, pp, bbb, etc. He even contacted the usps and filed a mail fraud case against me, stating I was going to claim usps damage and get insurance money on the hat. Fucktard. I am still laughing about it now. It was obvious he was just after a free hat.

The seller is the one that decided it cost more to ship it back than it was worth so they let him keep it. That's not a thief.
 
i just want to know if hes right about the bender being good or not :homer:

hes kind of a loud mouth homer so i dont really take his word for it :laughing:

this is kind of where I'm at.

Seller misrepresented the kit, selling it for $230 more on ebay than on their own site. Not illegal, but kinda dumb.

If I had been in his shoes, I'd certainly want the seller to pay shipping for the return. If they chose not to, that's on them, no?

Guy might be a douche, but i don't think thief applies.
 
poop pipe retard himself says that if you click the *read more* button it clearly states that it is unwelded. Listing things on ebay for companies like that is more about free advertising. Except they have to tack on a cost for thieving ebay buyers who hold goods hostage. Retard himself even threatened a charge back before they just refunded him.

Take the fact that you don't like him out of the equation. I know nothing about the guy, and frankly, I don't care to. But if what he said is correct, calling him a thief is an unearned brand.

Let's just stick with calling him a **** then?
 
So the seller is just supposed to eat the $300 potential shipping both ways in case the buyer says "Naaah, I changed my mind."? Well, they do own a business, so I guess they're just bourgeois rent-seekers who have it coming, right? :rolleyes:
 
im almost certain that a situation like this happened with Alex. He is a total piece of shit and absolute nut case chasing FB likes and YT views. He has no tech to share and has absolutely no intellect.

Pretty much. Guy could drown in a puddle, and the world would be a better place.

Go look a there Ebay listings, there's no shortage of information. Everything that comes assembled and coated says so in bold letters in the description. I don't know the exact model, it may be in the videos, but I really don't feel like listening to that retard speak. Here's a similar listing from Rogue, https://www.ebay.com/itm/M600-Mandr...714483?hash=item3d87b3d433:g:59kAAOSwIYdcpm2-

Selling for more on a 3rd party site like Ebay or Amazon isn't misrepresentation, it's a mark up to compensate for dealing with a 3rd party who collects fees. You're paying more because it costs them more. It's not their fault that he's literally too stupid to read.

This is 100% theft.

Now listen in the video. The listings have allegedly been changed to put that in large bold font since this incident.

it would seem that all of us who have never heard of this guy before have the same opinion, but those who know of him and don't like him are insistent upon dragging him through the mud.

isn't this the crux of the complaint? Not assembled and coated - a weld together kit which was not described as such in the listing?

Outside looking in... taking it all at face value... mistakes on both sides. But theft?

Yeah, I guess you're all fans of theft by fraud.

FYI, I've personally been on his side, until this. He's been an arrogant twit, but building stuff in the face of criticism. I'm all for poop pipe, square tube, and JY engines.

I'm not for stealing.

Listen again-

"mistakes on both sides" should end up with money on one side and a machine on the other side. Dirtbag has both, hence this thread.
