Ebay Cutefleur69 aka Rupert bonham-smith

[The great dane]

This is a warning for anyone who is thinking of or has bought something of the ebay seller cutefleur69. He was selling outboards and other naval stuff. I know that he is based in Hamshire.

If you have bought anything from the seller and havn't recieved it contact ebay or paypal immediatly. The seller doesn't have the items advertised. Some people have obviously recieved small items such as navy shoulder boards.

I bought an outboard, mariner 25, the seller said he shipped it with a small currier but i never resieved the engine , he insisted I pay through paypal and he would ship it. (He sounded genuine). He came up with several stories, one was that parcel force had lost the engine.

I made a claim through paypal and they couldn't contact him, so they recovered about 10% of my money.

Paypal and ebay are now investigating and I've been in touch with other ebay members who have involved the police. If anyone knows where this guy is or who he is please let me know!!

This ruined our small diveclubs boating, we lost 800£
. I should not have sent payment and risked my 100% feedback!!!

I know that the guy's name is Rupert bonham-smith and he is living in Hamshire
I know that he has a compagny called The London Offshore Club and Atlantic web
Does enyone know this guy???
Can enyone please help me what to do?

I payed for the engine for 6 month ago and i still haven't reseived anything and the seller always claim that he will ship it next week.

AND GUYS... DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS GUY

What can i do with that guy???

Has enyone a good idea to help me receiving the engine or to get my money back ??
Please help, i don't know the english law that well.

I can understand that Mr. Rubert Bonham-Smith is well known, but not for something good, is that right???

I'm apparently not the only one this guy has cheated, is there enyone else there has beeb cheated?

Looking at his website I guess these are his numbers.

Is he saying he has not sent the engine yet?

I have just read some of the old posts about this guy and he comes across as an unpleasant person.

Good Luck!!

Great Dane,

If you like I would be happy to call this guy on your behalf and ask him what has happened to the engine and if he has shipped it where the documents are.

Hi Chris.
I will be very happy if you will call this guy for me and get an explenation but it will maybe be a good idea if you read the mails i got from him first.....

And YEAHH it wodd be a good idea if everybody calls the guy or maybe if everyone who read this tread will mail the guy and force him ti ship the engine or refund the amount a payed for the engine.

This is his mailadress: cutefleur69@yahoo.co.uk or one of them....
