Now I'm not going to bash this guy or anything like that, but I found a news article that says that the owner is going through a bankruptcy at the request of the National Crime Agency. It is unclear whether this includes the business or not.

Here is the article. I have a little bit more info if anyone wants it.

Hopefully the admin of this site will not delete this thread.

Would this mean he is in Legal trouble for selling these things? If so our country is getting worse each month that goes on.

... so do many other countries. I would say yes to your question since the authority who requests it has crime in the name.

He was found guilty of selling illegal chip back in 2007 (see here) but his conviction was overturned on appeal in 2008 (See here). So I'm not sure what is going on now though I have my suspicions, but it must be pretty bad before the NCA is after him.

Most likely, even tho his conviction was overturned, no criminal charges anymore, I bet they keep the large Million pound fine, if not after his appeal the govt. most likely would still go after the money he made from his crimes.

The old story Crime Does Not Pay. -- Well it does, but the govt. mafia wants their cut!

The real sceners moved out of UK long time ago, anyone left behind doing business there was crazy.

Would have been better to know about his dirty business before we made orders and have never got anything for our money. But I remember how many times people claimed about the "lost", "never sent" and alike MrConsoles packs, these threads got deleted for some strange reason. Those threads could have spoken for themselves and people could have saved their money with ordering from other, much more reliable places... but as the threads got deleted and MrConsoles were always saved by some special people, he could keep on running his bussines and could steal a lot more money from us.

I have no clue why it was good for the official TX team, as a reseller like MrConsoles just caused more trouble and hate, but it's none of my business.

Because he's a part of the team or in tight with someone high up and they don't give a sh*t about you. That's the sad truth and the reason we see these posts every couple of weeks.

Maybe might had been in past, but I am new Xecuter and as captain it is to make sure everyone has right to talk, and things are openly discussed, the only thing I will not allow is direct personal attacks, but things like orders and shipments and clones are #1 to make sure customers are happy buying legit TX products and they get support, not emptyness or sadness.

I already dumped the whole 'where-to-buy' page and rebuilding it with proper current info, and resellers that don't tow the line will be put in 'hall of shame' in the future.

Wow I must say, I really do like this new Xecuter. Looking forward to purchasing new products, assuming there will be. Always the highest quality, that's what I like. :D

Daniablo, if you paid by bank transfer then there is a good chance that your money is gone, but hopefully you will get your items. If you don't then please report him to Action Fraud

I'm so glad to see that the new admin is so open to free speech, this means that we can now fully warn anyone else about mrconsoles without the post mysteriously disappearing.

Hi, is Mrconsoles the same as Mr Modchips? I've never had a problem with ordering from there, its always been genuine TX stuff and delivered really quickly.

Yes, I think he used to be mrmodchips, not sure why he changed the company name. He seems to be very hit or miss, some folks have no problems while others, like me, never receive the items or get a refund. I have a theory but will keep it to myself.

http://mrconsoles.com/

meant to be getting my console fixed, my console has arrived at the location and waiting on parts, I ordered on sunday from http://mrconsoles.com, now I don't want to slam the website, as I have heard they can ban you from all team-executer resellers, but basically scared, as I googled it.. and all I seen was bad stuff about the website, saying he scams your money, and if you ask for a refund he blocks you on the website and other reseller by passing the info on, and some say he never sends the items, and if he does your waiting a while? is this the case? anyone help.


got told by the help desk my items would be posted on tuesday (today) then when I made an other post wanting to confirm i got this..


"Our terms of sale which were confirmed as read and understood by you clearly state that we only agree to ship all orders within 28 days.

Dispatch times

All items ordered and payment confirmed before 4pm Monday to Friday are dispatched ,when possible, same day. Items ordered outside of these times are dispatched at the next earliest opportunity. We hold large stocks and dispatch 99.9% of all products within the quoted time span. However, on occasion, certain products may be out of stock - On these rare occasions the ordered product/s will be obtained from our suppliers and delivered within 28 days. This ,of course, may not applicable to item(s) on preorder.

Re: http://mrconsoles.com/

Some people have good experiences with him. But I have read a lot of cases, when customers were scammed and never get their order or money back. I am ordering all my parts from local and verified reseller. I don't have any personal experience, but I wish you luck

Re: http://mrconsoles.com/

Should have kept away from him , he`s the biggest scammer going.

first time I had to buy parts from my xbox, wasn't even aware, he blocked me from websites, he does state ill get a refund within 30 days, if I don't email this email, but I don't trust him
