Title: Tip of the day - avoid Mushroom like the plague
Post by: the_wheelie_king on May 01, 2008, 06:39 PM

...for he is an untrustworthy soul. Bought a "literally nos" Suntour seatclamp off him last week. Literally nos my arse - it was shite - so I sent it back via recorded demanding a refund. Guess what? The communication has suddenly stopped. Not that I give that much of a fook as it was only a few quid, but I'd be heading up the M27 right now if it had been anything of any real value. Therefore, my advise is to not make the same mistake as I did and steer well clear. (PS Mods - I think this guy is Rubberducky / Burnerboy but you haven't put his current name on the Messers list).  :Aresehole:

I have just sent him this via a pm :

Gavin you haven`t taken my advice to you last time too well have you, now you seem to have forgotten that I live in Welling, and there are quite a few other members from this area, and we have both of your addresses that you are scamming members with.

Now if you don`t sort out these deals that are outstanding and leave the site never to return I will publish both addresses on the main forum, and then contact Bexleyheath CID and inform them that we would like to press charges for theft.

Your choice Gavin  :police:

I did this a while back as well, without the threat of the Police, and it worked for a while  :knuppel2:

So if he should ignor me this time then I will need a few details of the strokes he has pulled to pass on to Police  :police:

I have highlighted this tit time and time again, the last time my posts-that were aimed at alerting people- were removed.

Update - just got back from the pub to find that Gavin has now paid the money he owes into my paypal account, so it's only fair that I add this development to the thread. However, I do wonder if I'd ever have received this refund it it wasn't for the help of you boys.

Message to Gavin - it's bad karma to give people the runaround like this and one day it'll get you into a lot of hot water. If you're not going to be absolutely straight with people who you want to hang out with online, don't expect them to have the patience to ignore unanswered pm's when you owe money. I work fooking hard for my cash and the feeling of getting my fingers burnt tends to bring out the worst in me and, I suspect, everyone else on here. But fair play - you got there in the end.   

Message to Carl (Wardy), Chris (WishI'dkeptmyTA) and Dave (davevilla) - thanks for the trades chaps, and I look forward to showing them off on my very nearly completed Hutch build.

Message to the mods - great modding skills. I love this site. I think it's the dog's bollocks.

Cheers, Bob  :daumenhoch:

the amount of accounts he started in the past i'm sure will be stopped now the site supporter contribution is in place. you'll know it's him if someone pops up asking to pay the contribution in 20p installments and a a postal order he got from his nan on his birthday.
