I wanted to buy some noleen forks and put a wanted ad up last week,a guy joined retrobike and his first post was an advert to sell a proflex frmae and some noleen forks......
I didnt spot it in for sale because I find generally if you put an ad up things will come to you.....
Anyway a pm arrived from a new member offering to sell me some noleen forks and a link to ebay was given to me...I had already seen the ebay ones.....which were his..
anyway I thought "what the hell" I will take a chance... :roll:
We done a deal which meant me buying them outside of ebay,.....
The fork didnt arrive so I messaged him through ebay a couple of times...no reply....
When I got a bit feisty I got a reply saying that his car had been stolen and the fork was in the boot ready to be posted and now he didnt have it....
All typed in capitals and misspelt<<<
So he said he would give me my money back when his listings on ebay ended
anyway a bit more feistiness ensued and I got my money back......
DONT TAKE A CHANCE.......reading between the lines I think i know what happened.... Grit in my eye
