Take it that bag of bits doesn't include that elusive Dia Compe lever you owe me from all those weeks ago, right? Poodles, this chap is a nice enough bloke but make sure you get what you pay for, he has a habit of ignoring messages unless it suits him.

Dude shit happens. Sorry and all but please bare in mind, your some City boy type which I mean in the nicest possible way(you're employed) yet you felt the need to short change an art student. For like four pounds.. Like id have even been selling unless it was well necessary.. You're cheeky.. Even so yes, I have that dirt harry. I have access to it now that my living arrangements are a bit nicer. You're welcome to collect it anytime, but please don't make me out as some sort of charlatan. If youd have given me all the money your have gotten all the stuff rat racer. Had a bag of hand ins at the time and your barrage if phonecalls and subsequent forum campaign made me more determined to fuck you off in honesty. But yeah no hard feelings hopefully.
All stuff can be collected anywhere round goldsmiths . Photo bucket links on way, windows phone fails.

'Dude', I'm sorry but that's total horseshit. I didn't 'feel the need' to short change you, I was running a little late to collect and offered you £71 out of the £75 agreed - all I had on me - which you accepted. I also offered to walk up to the nearby cashpoint for the remaining few quid, but you declined. And in my messages I said I'd happily see you right for that £4 when I picked up the lever.
Frankly, given the condition of the stuff you were selling, even £70 would have been a good deal for you. I certainly did not rip you off. Or be 'cheeky' or whatever you'd prefer to call it. I have bought and sold lots of stuff on this forum without a single problem (and, since we're on the subject, I donate to it, too).
And if that £4 was the reason you decided to deliberately not include the lever (which it seems you are implying in your illiterate little stream of consciousness above) then why not reply to any one of my messages and let me know? You were active enough on the forum to do it. The 'barrage' you refer to was a very polite PM, a similarly friendly note on the original post and text message or two over the following few weeks. If you'd just got back to me and explained it was an honest mistake and you were screwed for cash I would have happily let it go.
As for the laughable suggestion of a 'forum campaign' you are joking, right? All I did was mention what happened in one or two posts, in the spirit of the forum, so the same thing didn't happen to anyone else. I gave you plenty of time to respond to me before I did this and, once again, had you bothered to get back to me, it wouldn't have happened.
Oh, and finally, 'city boy'. Lots of people spend a long time as students and live with all the associated debt. Me included. And they don't walk around whining on like a failing charity. Despite this, keep your lever (I bought another one during your long silence), maybe sell it and put the cash towards your graduation or something.

So let me get this right - you agreed a price with Scaredtocommit but you still turned up with the incorrect money?
-
• #13
Yes, by accident. I was running a bit late and actually I thought I had enough. As I said, I offered him the £71 I had on me and suggested a trip to the cashpoint, which he declined.
I'm almost bored of this now, but it was the lack of response that bugged me - negotiated price or not he didn't give me all the stuff, and all I was (politely) asking to do was rectify it.
Anyway, as I said, he's a nice enough bloke, just thought it fair to explain that massive communication failure in case it might affect anyone else.

Which is a fair point. Scaredtocommit, let's just forget all about it, one of those things. Like you said, no hard feelings. Good luck with the new sale.

Rear wheel gone, thanks to lkp85.
Rat racer, I couldn't be bothered to read most of that to be frank but I get the gist and if you don't need the lever then no hard feelings and what not. However being illiterate and having a computer pre empt what you want say(incorrectly) are two very different situations.
