Rocket-Boy Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 So dawn has passed and I didnt hear the sound of handbags, so has this been resolved? If not then let the entertainment commence...

lechatnoir Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Can we start a new thread 'Where has this thread taken you today?'
Capricorn Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 He inspected the wheels in person before he handed over the cash, so in my mind the photo on the ad does not make a difference.That's pretty much end of the discussion.Those 'stress marks' didn't appear during 6 months of no use. He failed at the most basic level: Caveat Emptor - the principle that the buyer alone is responsible for checking the quality and suitability of goods before a purchase is made. Whether the wheel was used or cross-dressing as something else, is IMO, completely irrelevant now. The buyer bought it as-is, in person where he had every opportunity to pose questions based on a thorough examination. He did not. He carries the ball here.
Capricorn Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 I would like to see any buyer feedback/rating of the seller though. could be worthy of another chuckle or two..
Veebee Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 going to chat my LBS today to check if I can get a full refund on my 2 month old Propel... I swear I didn't use it, just had it packed away and took it out this morning and noticed the chainrings are worn.

I swear I didn't use it, just had it packed away and took it out this morning and noticed the chainrings are worn. It's not actually a Propel? What? Is it a Spesh with Giant stickers on it? That would be serious fraud..

King of the downhill Posted October 5, 2016 Author Posted October 5, 2016 Apologies for lack of precision: I was intending to refer to feedback from the buyer of the wheelset in question.Very valid...If there was an issue why not rate me as a "seller"...Like all the other "buyers" did.....
Rocket-Boy Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 Very valid...If there was an issue why not rate me as a "seller"...Like all the other "buyers" did.....That is really the only recourse the buyer has.I would still rather buy from someone that has mostly good reviews with one bad, than someone that has no reviews.
Maniax Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 I think this is laid to rest1. The entire 21 page thread is over R1400 wheels2. The OP is either stupid enough to buy bew rims decals and rebuild and sell them as the old wheels at a loss, or the buyer is trying bullding strawmen from hot air.3. The OP is in his right to refuse a refund, and the buyer cant do anything about it.4. We trust the seller'/ character based on his history and reputationin the Hub community and thus by default take his point of view, unless it can be PROVEN otherwis.5. Buyer must write this off as school fees, stop moaning over 1400 rims and enjoy them on the road. Peace out
Showtime Posted October 5, 2016 Posted October 5, 2016 It's not actually a Propel? What? Is it a Spesh with Giant stickers on it? That would be serious fraud.. That would be a sleeper or in this case a sleeping Giant.
