sh!t !

I was trying to buy the wheels off him for £200 plus P&P but he never got back to me, not sure where his gone. I sent him a PM to call me about it but I have heard nothing from him . . .

If him honest it looked kinda dodgy, I checked out his photobucket account and there are loads of pictures of diffrent cars on there which was really werid. Almost as if he has gone on loads of sits saying his breaking cars and posted pics. Might be just me getting carried away.

I was going to collect the wheels anyway :( (was looking forward to them wheels lol)

Post by: Martz on 20 February 2008, 22:54
Email him and say if he does not respond you will post his bank details  and reply to every dodgy email that is received from Nigeria. :grin:

Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: Lee_dub on 20 February 2008, 23:12
Mate if it comes to it I know some nasty people that could empty his account with just the details you would need to transfere money but like I said is the account his?  also you could go to the bank that he has given you the details of and you could say somthing to them about it, mabie they could help....

I dont think your going to get much info from the bank :(

Its all private infomation.
Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: TeddyKGB on 20 February 2008, 23:25
alans right teh banks won't help. Even with the details he/she has given you, you would only be able to put monies IN and not take anything out :sad:
Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: TeddyKGB on 20 February 2008, 23:25
The guy might just be a crap seller who delivers eventually (i've had a few of these in the past) :angry:

Post by: Ben Lessani on 21 February 2008, 09:31
Is the bank account held with RBS or Natwest - if so, I might be able to help.
Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: ghockle on 21 February 2008, 10:30
shocking - speak to your bank as well (did you sure a credit card ? you may be insured).

hope you get the wheels or get some recourse for action

Post by: J5H VW on 21 February 2008, 12:32
I PM'd him about his golf parts too - i never got a response.

looks dodgy, and without looking to offend anyone, he did say (im sure) that he was in Hillfields in coventry - not the best of places trust me!
Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: Geeman on 21 February 2008, 17:03
LOL - I'm not the only one trying to get those wheels off him then...!

Thought £200 was a bit cheap!

Will have SERIOUS second thoughts about getting them now.
Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: AlanD on 21 February 2008, 19:19
I was going to do collection only and cash when I got there. I can only assume this is why he never replied to me.

They would have soooo been mine, id have kicked all your ass for them :D
Title: Re: anyone now this guy
Post by: (shakey) on 21 February 2008, 19:22

glad to hear its being sorted mate.

i think this is a lesson for all of us, as i have been stung once before. I would seriously recommend you only buy parts off someone reputable or is a long serving member of the forum. I.e has a lot of posts to his/her name and is well known.

As I say, I got stung once before, well twice actually. it may have been the same guy thinking about it but with two different usernames. I lost about £100 in total.
