GLuvsMtb Posted July 27, 2015 Share If I sold someone a fake on the hub, I would refund them.Really?! So how do you verify 6 months down the line whether the items returned were the ones sold? What is the fair price of wear and tear on the said items? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLuvsMtb Posted July 27, 2015 Share I can see how you got to 4 832 posts.and I can see that you should rather be posting in the comments section on news24 than here. Let me break it down for you. 1. There is a real chance that a purchaser out there buys a good second hand item to substitute it with a fake and then try to recover damages from the seller. Worst case scenario, a handbag slinging contest and much popcorn later he ef's off, best case scenario, the seller takes the goods back or offer to reimburse a part of the sales price.2. The purchaser buys the goods because he has a trashed set at home, and then either try to recover some of the damages through shipping insurance or from the purchaser. Your self-proclaimed integrity means very little if you can't back it up when someone asks a real question on whether or not you have thought your response through. Stick around kiddo, you may learn a thing or 2, and not just about cycling. Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick around kiddo, you may learn a thing or 2, and not just about cycling. There is a measured risk buying on the hub or any other on line platform, a chance you could be conned. This is something with many Internet transactions, risk versus reward. We weigh up the risk versus reward alternatives based on our experiences and research, make a choice to buy or not to buy. I think there is a higher risk with higher value transactions, also the fakes and con artists are getting better. So far my experiences on the hub have been very positive. Ultimately the reputation of the seller does provide the purchaser with some comfort. This is the foundation of the on line platforms like ebay and aliexpress, and the like. You can see how long the person has been a member and the feedback from other members. The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior, not an exact science, but pretty good.

Spoke101 Posted June 14, 2019 Share The centre spoke in the G3 pattern looks skew?Optical illusion as the center spoke goes to the oposit side of the hub as the two outer spokes. I'll second Morph and say originals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
