Proper shit; just spunked £200 getting it in shape...

The following images are not specifically my frame, I just post these to etch something in the memory

Annoyingly I just remembered the front wheel had my pitlock through a White Industry silver hub with the interloc rim, so unless the theif is really driven the wheel and fork should remain together.

It also had tasty Bontrager brake calipers (f&r) with Avid brake levers.
Plus a cheapo handle bar bag

It has flat handle bars,
standard forks,
black deep v front (interlock cadence rim)
Black deeper V rear wheel
Ritchie WRS seat post
battered ISM adamo saddle
OG brown langster

If you see it anywhere stick as many locks as you can get on it.

There’s flat iron square where you can get a drink and then easy food if it’s going well.

What's the deal with the fire escape if it ain't going so well?

Strong work, peeps!

Meeting someone in Southbank tomorrow eve.. Any recommends for the area?

Not looking to impress (aka I'm not looking to spend hard),

I could be tempted by the Crankset and/or possibly the wheel set..

Thanks to all that have listened to my grumblings and tried to offer help.

Howard's post above made me chuckle; fuck eBay, Parcel Force, Royal Mail...Fuck all the big conglomerates....Come to Facebook instead..

Yeah, I have all the paper work plus the eBay listing...finger crossed.

As a result of this mess and nobody owning any part of it, are there better alternatives to selling footwear?

But they say the did. They didn't say there was nobody there. They specified it was "refused". Why didn't they leave card?
Why didn't they go back?

Irritating af

Sorry I had to edit the sloppy initial post for clarity...

Due to the number of counterfeit trainers in the world, eBay now have a system where you no longer send direct to the buyer, you send to an intermediate that verifies first then they post to the buyer.

I sent a pair of trainers that I sold via the post office to said eBay verification location.
Eventually I get messages from eBay and the buyer asking where the footwear is.
I find out from the Post Office that they tried to deliver (once @ ~8.15am) and according to their system the item was refused, they're trying to find the item and to come back and try again.

When I questioned eBay about the refusal to sign, they said, they'd never do that and that the item was posted outside of business hours, hence no one signing for it.

After a few weeks it became clear that the Post Office have lost the item.

The things that pissed me off about this whole affair:

1. Why have the Post Office only attempted delivery once? Surely you'd at least leave a card? Or try again the following day??
   
2. eBay said nothing about about ensuring delivery was within business hours. Why am I penalised for this?
   
3. Who is lying, did someone actually "refuse" the item or was there just nobody present?
   
4. Turns out I cannot get the full value of the item as it wasn't posted at full value...because when I posted, my local PO didn't ask me the value, and I forgot to ensure the correct value.
   
   

I can only claim £50 for something that I sold for £115.00

Is there anything I can do to get more money back or just cut my losses?

It is the 'super' heads, business managers (that float around like demi-gods in too many of these academies and teachers that failed this child that should be the first to feel the heat.

Belgium have a similar thing going on currently..

Too soon?

How goes, fella?
Loooong time.

He has the face of a generic pederast in that photo tbf...

cheers gents.

I'l try again...

Do watches from manufacturers/factories have vastly different batteries to those from high street/side street battery replacement outfits?

Is it me or do batteries from the factory last longer in watches than when I get them changed at secondary watch repair spots (either market of even Alsal)?

::doffs hat::

Actually scrub that. Cheap and vile; I'm embarking on a money pit session AKA a date- I don't wanna be getting expectations too high this early on.
