Trust goes wrong

Mr Ronnie Beukes, owner of this business,convinced me that he had an urgent buyer for my brand new BGD glider and assesories.Gear delivered to him during August 2019.Requested my banking details during October 2019 as he allegedly had a buyer and wanted to pay the agreed selling price. Nothing forthcoming however. When I notified him I'm coming to pick up the gear in early February 2020 as I had a private buyer, the gear was misteriously suddenly sold. Sale took place without my consent or knowledge. Never notified me of sale. According to Beukes he sold my gear for less than what was agreed without obtaining my approval . Despite demand neglected to pay me the agreed selling price. Ripoff... Be careful who you trust!!! Had to refer matter to Court for adjudication and recovery of damages.
