He has pretty much shown himself to be just as most say. He sells broken macs to one of the lists I am on and he also has a web site with his ahh possible new addy in Owosso MI.

http://www.macmancomputers.com/

If anyone wishes to look for him hey go at it. I got four blue and whites all four are good for parts only. Had hoped to build me a second one as a back up but alas nope. I will also post this to other areas on apple fritters as well.

Current address for Steven T. Landon. Scammer.

507 Coruuna Rd Apt#4 Owosso, MI 48867
269-838-2851 possible cell phone.
also has this email of

I can call down to the county seat to see if he has a dba business license if anyone wants to email me off here.

Watch out on Craigslist as well, he contacted me when I posted that I wanted a Mac Mini... He only offered shipment and not face to face meeting.

sorry the macs he is stating worked are still sitting in my barn which is where they have been since the week after I had bought them. As for the loss of the cash to me this isn't even the problem now. I can eat the loss of the 4 but I won't trust him again. I can let anyone who wants to also know what they are. I have 4 3 are rev2 blue and white, and the last a 350 rev1 with the wrong jumper block. Working I say not. I have been working in the computer field since the early 90's and in electronics since before steven was born. I date back to tubes by gosh.

That is an exact quote from the e-mail he sent me. This is what he calls "not shipping anything on craigslist".

I actually took the time to fill out an anti-piracy form over at Adobe.com for this bozo.

If you do the same, maybe we can get rid of him once and for all.

I have talked to this guy's girlfriend before on AOL instant message. I was about to sell them a large lot of old Mac parts but she backed out of the deal at the last minute. If you want AOL screen name or if there is any other way I can help you find this guy, please call me, Thomas, (913) 563-6797.

Well he has been trying to umm scare me from the fact I put all the info on him I had on the web. Too badf. I do know a few people in owosso and they aren't the light kind of people. In fact I wonder if he is selling the mac mini or just trying to recover his pride. Anyways sorry that I got him out of the woodwork again. I am sorry to the Mod. I will say that while my 4 blue and whites were junk. I can see others have been hit alot worse. Oh he also was going to give me the intel tiger but alas it never came to be. Too bad Apple would have loved him.
Oh didn't know he had a myspace site too. I don't do myspace so...

Again sorry for bringing the troll back out to plug the forum up. As for his acts, well lets just say I hunt meth labs in the spring and summer to keep those dips out of the forrest with the crap they make up. So he really can't bother me.

we bought an imac from steven of macman computers in owosso mi some time ago. we got it for a decent price and have been happy with it. so i didnt mind calling on him for another comp when we decided that we needed another. we made a deal via phone for an emac, and today ( sunday 4-22 ) we were to pick it up. car troubles arose last night and buying another comp was just not financially reasonable. when he called this morning telling my better half that the comp was ready to be picked up she told him that we could not buy it at this time. he got really pissy with her on the phone and told her that thanks to us he was going to jail for child support and dont bother contacting him, he wont be doing business with us ever again and hung up the phone on her. after finding out what a shady creep he is, i am glad we did not buy it!
