Ethics in classifieds!?

Yes, i am in contact with the guy.

 

Have sent admin the voice notes and screenshots.

 

I don't BS.

 

Clearly he's in it for a quick buck and does not care about the "community" nor his reputation."

 

Mistakes can be made, but your character dictates how you manage a predicament. 

 

I bought another unit because i got another deal and was looking to close the deal with "Ryan" amicably. 

 

I didn't force him to refund, i actually suggested that he sell and refund me once the sale has concluded and even tried to sell it with/for him.

 

In that case, best of wishes getting this sorted ASAP

I'm currently having an altercation with a hubber i purchased something from.

He still has 3 items available for sale. He shafted me and ghosted a newbie hubber.

 

A bad rating alone wont help with this, If i could then i would post a comment on each of his existing listing.

 

I have sent Hub support/admin a mail about my position this morning and await response.

Contact Admin and ask him to forward you the Rouxtjie codicil to the Hub standard T&Cs

I was/am under the impression that the idea behind or spirit of the Buy & Sell was to promote the sport of cycling and that both seller and dealer feel like they had a fair deal.

 

Yeah, nah.

Its essentially how the used car market operates...buy the car at the lowest price possible (as a dealer) and then clean it up and list it for what the market on average will accept...

 

Where does the bike hub community stand on this issue. This bike was advertised not long ago for R35k. I was sad I missed out when contacting seller. Now being resold for R50k. Is it just my bad luck or is this not right? https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/dual-suspension-bikes/405564/specialized-epic-expert-xl-bm4187

Maybe a bit steep for a decade old bike 

Hmmm, I see what you did here. I agree. This thread has potential 👀😅

Are you sure you weren't already goofed? An honest mistake was made and corrected in a timely fashion. Hardly a question of ethics

Well, having first hand experience of how they lowball you by near 60% …they probably only paid R10k max for it. I’m with franna on this one regardless of their typo.
