ChUkKy Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 And people ask me why im so picky and only deal with two shops in SA , if they cant help me or i cant find it online i dont buy it . Karma you a better man than me my friend , i would have had a case laid against me this morning for assalt. +1I would have had fun watching that "box" trying to pick up his teeth with broken hands
Enigma77 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 This is ridiculous. How can someone treat a customer this way. Id turn around and politely knock a few teeth out infront of his customers.
Mojoman Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 So you guys all want to jump a 70 year old now?
Wayne Potgieter Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 As much as i like the idea of bitch slapping him... Karma is doing the 100% perfect thing here. 1.He is avoiding conflict.2. he has made his concerns in a related, repectful but public way3. he has invited this chap to explain from his side of the story4. he has chosen where he can/cant spend his hard earned money. All of these things will have a far more damaging thing to this chaps business than a p klap. Well done Karma for exercising restraint...something i doubt i would be able to do. tunariaan, Stretch, DIPSLICK and 14 others 17
DR ◣◢ Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I see they deleted the post on their Facebook page. How about we all start posting the link to their wall. Somebody is bound to notice. The link on the Momsen page however is stillthere. ChUkKy 1
DR ◣◢ Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 So you guys all want to jump a 70 year old now? Even more reason to. He's had 70 years to learn how to treat people with respect. ChUkKy and Peewee1 2
Mojoman Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Even more reason to. He's had 70 years to learn how to treat people with respect.Maybe, but we only have one half of the story here and now everyone is all pumped up to beat up a 70 year old!Hardly gives any bragging rights at the pub!

My post was made in jest. Like I said earlier in the thread, some things are not worth it.
Mojoman Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I agree, but your post made me remember this...Haha, fair enough!

Don't think many of us hangs out at pubs. At least it would not have been much of a fight. Just a quick BOO and he would have toppled over and break a hip
Adrian4Four Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 yeah its a *** place that. Cant even call it a shop and if you dont know of that little 'centre' you struggle your ass off to find it... then you finally get there and you have to deal with a knobhead like that. Went there once for a minute, left and wont go back even if he had the best deal on something i needed.
Red Zone Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I dont see Mr Bicycle Trader wading in on a public forum with an excuse or explanation only to get lynched by everyone here. I would hope that a PM would be sent but wouldn't bet on that either. My advise is to move on, never set foot in his shop again and advise others to do the same.
Mojoman Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Don't think many of us hangs out at pubs. At least it would not have been much of a fight. Just a quick BOO and he would have toppled over and break a hipPrehaps, refer to Wayne's post further up!
Guest Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Don't think many of us hangs out at pubs. At least it would not have been much of a fight. Just a quick BOO and he would have toppled over and break a hip Like I said in my post, I invite him to tell his side or apologise. If he had a bad day, he lost a loved one etc and snapped, or a case of wrong place, wrong time, then say so and rebuild your reputation here. Until then, I stick with my bad experience at his shop, and wont recommend it, nor visit it, no matter how big my dilemma. I know other brilliant shops, that are not even close to home, but I would rather drive out R50 Diesel, and pay R10 more, than support BT. Edited December 20, 2012 by Karma
