WARNING: Peter Nerving/Taksdale
      #185378 - 08/07/11 12:56 AM

I know many here visit AR. On the hope of saving others from heartache and financial loss I'd like to share the following link which is a very kind summary. At least a dozen double enthusiasts have lost considerable amounts of money for doubles that have never been built with no communication nor refund following deposits.

Here is a link to one thread on the subject. For those who wonder, yes we each have ample proof.

http://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/760101804/m/7791025851

Might be worth sharing in other forums here but I didn't want to cross post. Please share in all of the gun, hunting and horse forums you see fit and be careful fellow double and hunting enthusiasts.

You need more proof than some anonymous posters on another Forum.

This is not AR where Vigilante Justice rules and peoples reputations are ruined by posters who hide behind screen names.

This thread is locked.

If any member has any specific allegations they should PM or email me.

Similarly, if the individual in question wishes to respond they will get the opportunity.

NE does not want to get in the middle of this however and no doubt all will be revealed in due course.

Some facts of which all should be aware:

In March 2011 I contracted with Peter als Nerving have him build a double rifle for my father to use on PG for our upcoming safari in November 2011. We discussed the details and he provided a written contract describing the agreed upon details including an anticipated completion and delivery date of September 2011. We had almost daily correspondence about the build, his excitement about my particular double - a 240 NE Flanged - and the details of the process.

I ordered 300 pieces of brass from Kynamco and had custom dies made by RCBS and told Peter I had done so and we agreed upon a load that he would regulate using powder and bullets he said he would be able to easily obtain in his area.

Work was to begin as soon as a 50% deposit was received by Peter. This was wired to his bank account immediately in early March. I have both the wire deposit receipt as well as correspondence from Peter that he had received the deposit of $4,750.00 US dollars.

In April, things were "progressing nicely and the barrels arrived"

Following this, Peter contacted me asking for another $3,000.00 USD to have a set of shotgun barrels made for the double if I wanted. He also asked that I send the brass and dies to him.

After mulling it over, I stated I really could not afford the shotgun barrels and told him so quite apologetically in May 2011. I did not send the dies nor brass.

Never heard from him again.

Countless dozens of emails, PMs, telephone calls, Skype from me - all have gone unanswered though he was alive and well and posting on Facebook as well as elsewhere.

Not photo, no serial number, not one shred of evidence that he has actually done anything at all to build anything for me or even received a single item needed to build a double rifle for me.

I am one of at least 10 people I know for certain have had the exact same experience with Peter als Nerving. NOt a single person has received their double, a photo or any piece of evidence that anything has been started on teir builds or that any component was in hand. Some of these folk gve their deposits in June 2010.

I have ample written proof of what I have written.

It is in the hands of the legal authorities and while I have no expectation of getting my $4,750 back, I write this in hopes that someone who might otherwise be the next victim will not.

Be careful - not all who seem good and honest are so and they prey on those who truly are.

Hi CCMdoc,

That is terrible, surely a criminal charge could be bought about as here in Australia (if the allegations are correct) it would be (in my belief) Fraud or taking money under false pretenses let alone breaches of his dealers licence. Just a thought, solicitors just want your money, the police have there own solicitors.

Cheers,

Jeff Gray

Please note off topic posts will be deleted.

This is not a thread for all sorts of comments and discussions.

This thread was re-opened specifically to allow members whom believe they have an issue to state the facts of their transaction.

CCMDoc and I had an off-public discussion as he is a customer of Peter Nerving and believes there is serious issues with the transaction. And also with other clients orders.

I asked CCMDoc to post the facts of the transaction as they speak for themselves.

Another member also PMed me with information but declined the opportunity to publicly state the transaction facts. But wished to inform me re his case. It is of course a person's own decision how they wish to go about it and I respect that.

But it is good for facts relating to the alleged failure of the transactions to be made public, especially if others may be considering making an order.

If there are answers to the issues, it is a pity Peter Nerving doesn't communicate with his customers, and provide some answers.

I emailed Peter a couple of times as well but no answer.

The reasons for the lack of communication and the failure to deliver the ordered goods, could include various reasons.

I understand the customers are pursuing legal action, police action etc and so the facts will inevitably come out.

NE is a media platform. Allegations of fraud etc should be stated as a "belief" eg "I believe I have been ripped off" etc. The word "alleged" eg "alleged fraud" etc as well should be used. No doubt if the alleged fraud is the case, the legal/police action will eventually show whether this is correct when proven in court. After the appropriate court judgement, if convicted for fraud, that is when a media platform can use the word "fraud" without any mention of alleged.

However if other customers also wish to state the facts of their transactions they are welcome.

Also an answer from Peter would also be very welcome.

NE is not a party to these transactions in any form, merely an information source/media source and is bound by the laws regarding that eg libel etc.

Regarding people getting all upset about things on another forum, freedom to post anything they want etc, to my knowledge ALL the selling activity occurred on that forum, and not on this one. There was one short thread displayed on NE at the time, with two or three replies. And very little posting by the member since then.

If a serious desire to sell on NE was wanted by the member, he would have been most definitely asked for a series of photographs of his product so members could gain a more considered opinion on the firearms as part of the purchase. And for example asked if even a single example had been completed yet. Look at some other new gunmakers and the dozens of photos of their work that have been displayed, of the gun being built etc and then the finished firearm.

So maybe "people being able to post anything they want" is not always such a good thing.

NE just like any other forum can not prevent people from making sales, especially if done off the public forums by PM etc. Beware of members whom repeatedly try to sell by PM and never openly.

I do sympathise with the customers and hope they receive a just result and satisfaction.

If the element of reasonable trust has been (allegedly) breached, it is a negative for all the firearms forums on the net.

Its good now the police is involved.The taxdepartment( Danish IRS) will I am sure investigate his tax returns too.He might have declared the money involved on his taxreturn, but he still have a problem using a name of a company that ceased to exsist after he collected orders/money. In my opinion however fraud,taxavation, embezzlement and illegal armstrade is what the entire picture looks to me.
