^ seeing as we’re doing testimonials, I have dealt with James twice, once on here, where he sold me a job lot of items that arrived a few parts short. He said it didn’t matter as they were ‘cheap alloy seatposts’. Didn’t care enough to pursue it but I thought it was lackluster.
2nd time was through Ebay where he also had an account, I found out it was jamesnq later. I won a frame on an auction, he rapidly cancelled the sale under the pretense that I had terrible feedback (it was almost perfect... much better than his) and refunded me. He then acknowledged his mistake on here but couldn’t continue the sale of the frameset because he no longer had it.. he then relisted it on eBay a month or so later. Obviously didn’t go as high as what he was expecting. As an apology he said he’d source me a similar frame... lol. On this occasion his actions were disengenous but I guess quite amusing.
I think he’s just a shit / flakey seller, especially considering at the time he was operating as a ‘business’. He’s been called out by a few people but hasn’t done anything bad enough to warrant getting banned etc.
