>Thank you for posting the information about Charles Griffin. Last fall I bought something from him online and sent him a check for $2,850. I’ve never received the item. I’ve sent him messages about it and I’ve gotten responses. The person who sends the responses signs his name Phil. For a few months he’s been telling me that Charles has been incapacitated with some serious infection. He won’t give me any other information. I’m sure Phil is really Charles. I’ll contact the Winnipeg authorities. I’ll probably never see my money, but now that I’ve seen your posting on the internet, I’ll start to do something about it.

Update of Charels Jan 24,2009:

I have received this info from another auction gallery:

Kimball,

I've just confirmed that Charles Alexander Griffin is indeed going by the name Nikita Carleton Bentley Ross, nowadays. I just wanted to let you know that for your own records, in case he tries to bid with you again. Thanks a lot for posting the deadbeat's information on line; it was super helpful. I like to avoid potential problems before the hammer falls...and you and I both know that Charles Griffin aka Nikita Ross is a problem


Charles Alexander Griffin, Yes I said Charles Alexander Griffin

Call us to find out more about this deadbeat bidder. He owes us for a purchase. About 2285.00 and will not answer calls or emails.
Auctioneers be aware of this guy. Please blacklist this bidder. Call us at 423-928-1471 and we will tell you more. We are in the process of filling a suit against him under the UCC.
He will not know it but someday when he shows his passport at customs he will have a surprise here in the United States.

In my opinion you should not believe a word he says. This notice is posted September !st, 2008. Any notice posted anywhere else after this date from this deadbeat bidder should be one of his lies.

We have been in business for 20 years and have never had a person like this bid at any of our auctions.

Kimball M.
Sterling
