equal bad trader?

Or do we need a 'members not in the 'spirit' of the forum' thread?

Please don't sully this forum mister, I like it as it is.

I'm thinking more of an misunderstood user, he doesn't quite 'get' the community.

He's a nice lad, just a big fan of capitalism.

.

I'd say that says more about the seller (if they take the extra) than the gazumper.

I totally agree: plenty of people who PM offering more money after item is dibbed. The famous "I won't tell anyone". They can stick it up their backstabbing arses.

Agree.
Definitely a bad traders issue since, surely, less people will wish to sell nice stuff/cheap on here if they're gonna see it back on sale for a profit a few weeks later. Even if people don't care/agree about "not in the 'spirit' of the forum' " this sort of behaviour, if it became acceptable will make selling or buying on here nigh on impossible, no?

bad form by amey, heartless and cold. I won't be buying or selling with this member as a result of his/her actions.

He's a lad - sold him a seatpost.

him then.

dont agree, had plenty of people flake out after 'dibsing'

dibs means fuck all til you see the money

Last price drop lols

Agreed, it seems to be happening more. Eventually it will be to the detriment of the forum I agree.

I agreed to purchase a set of Stronglight Mygal cranks from raleigh, 2 weeks ago, and paid the agreed £30 promptly, through bank transfer (on the 2nd October). However; since I've made the payment, he has ignored my emails and PMs, has not logged on to the forum for over a week, and I have not received the cranks. He acknowledged reciept of payment, and the last I heard from him was a PM promising he would post them on Monday 4th October.

Here is a link to the thread: http://www.lfgss.com/thread52077.html#post1680052

If anybody knows him, or has his phone number, I would appreciate a little bit of help sorting this situation out.

Thanks,
Sam

Fuck off you mong

amey <-----WAC

Fuck off you mong

whats a mong

People I think Amey is just a little muddled, he doesn't see turning a quick buck off peeps selling at mates rates a problem and doesn't seem to get that it offends, but he ain't no Johnybeafeater.
Saying that I won't be doing no sweet deals for him.
With regards to the Eddy I bought off Erikfox, Erik was sterling, had non of the bullshit from the others and waited a week for full payment ( gave him a oner deposit). This behaviour would confuse poor Amey, as Erik and I had not met or even conversed before his sale thread. This happened because of the way the forum is and dudes like Amey won't spoil it.

amey, as daft as you sound, I think you are well aware that you are currently posting in the Bad traders thread right?

And if you think you can grab bargains and continue flipping them, think again?
