NOLA, I completely understand why you don't want to give out your number, I get it. So why don't you setup a free Google Voice number, you can text with it at no charge and also call with it. It calls your cell number and then calls the person you want to call and connects them together. The caller on the other end only sees the google voice number and they NEVER see your real cell phone number. Then afterwards you can block that number from ever calling you again via the Google Voice website. Or you can even install the Google Voice app on your phone and call from that.
So to say that you didn't want to discuss this over the phone for not giving someone your number is not the best excuse with technology available today. I use Google Voice all the time to respond to Craigslist ads and even a few people here on FRF that I would rather not give my real number to (a few that I kinda wish I didn't either).
I imagine that you planned on the charge back hoping that Troy will send you the missing parts then you plan on re-paying the agreed amount back to him and perhaps cover the charge back, right?
All I can say, is I have sold and purchased quite a few things on FRF and will continue to do so as I always want to do business with a FRF'er before anyone else but I seriously doubt I would do a transaction with either of you guys after hearing about this huge mess.
