GreyOwl3.0 Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Ok, first off this matter is resolved. Done and dusted.I contacted Popeye on friday morning after a conversation with PostNet and everything was sorted from there. I apologise publicly for suspecting Popeye. He is a gentleman and between us there are no hard feelings. I am sure he is available to comment on that. Now, as I have said to several Hubbers over the weekend regarding this matter... I have learned that you have to take the good with the bad.Admin (Matt) will be able to verify this, that I requsted the thread to stay open. Never once did I want it pulled or stopped. I was prepared to sell something Hub, so I must be prepared to take the flak when something goes wrong. Just like I was prepared to take the compliments for the FIAT Ad...I was prepared to handle the cr@p that came my way. You will also notice that I did not jump on here and try to deny anything. Someone mentioned that I must be very "hard skinned" regarding this whole thing...I am, and I was awaiting a decision from an investigation. There was a lot at play that was not aired on the Hub regarding this matter. Bare that in mind.Popeye told me that he was going to pull the thread when it was all resolved...thats why it vanished. I could have asked for its removal long before. I would encourage people to buy on the Hub. Dont judge the Hubs classified capacity based on this experience. The Hub is a fantastic place to get deals. I have bought loads and had a bad experience myself, but it wont put me off buying here. Say what you want about me, I really dont care. I know a lot of you (probably the vast majority) have had a lot to say about me that was less than complimentary and I have noted that. Its your opinion and you are more than entitled to it. Anyway...at least the matter is resolved. Oh, and I want to thank Admin and Linnega for all their assistance.
mbaymike Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Glad all is resolved....it is good to see that all is OK.
Windbreaker Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Even the apology is less than straight forward and littered with justifications. You really are something else!
Dirty Twin Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I am new at the HUB and will definately continue supporting my LBS thank you very much.
Windbreaker Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Yes' date=' I am. Thanks for noting it[/quote']And so is the Komodo Dragon, and I'd trust you about the same.
GreyOwl3.0 Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 Thats your opinion. Your entitled to it like I said WB.
mbaymike Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 windbreaker.....you really don't need to attack grey owl further...we all had our say about what was going on. It was resolved as grey owl said and no one is asking you to buy anything from GO or trust him.
fiasm Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 windbreaker...as usual you don't miss much!!fiasm2008-08-12 02:41:50
Dirty Twin Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I must say that I am glad for Popeye's sake that this thing has been resolved. It was reading like an international conspiracy very entertaining on a boring day at the office.
KlapperKnop Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Now that the dust has settled; GO2 do you have any Tag Heuer F1's for sale? (just kidding.. sense of humor ... sense of humor) Now I hope you coming with us on Tuesdays/Thursdays???
Windbreaker Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 windbreaker.....you really don't need to attack grey owl further...we all had our say about what was going on. It was resolved as grey owl said and no one is asking you to buy anything from GO or trust him. Like the man said I am entitled to my opinion. And as someone else said this whole thing has left a bitter taste. It's my opinion that even now GO is stil playing with the truth. The bottom line is that he did a dirty on Popeye, lied numerous times and now apologises for "suspecting popeye". He makes absolutely no apology for hanging onto Popeye's R5k for 2 months. He makes no apology for umpteen lies and deceptions. Yet he says that we must all believe that there was more at play - insinuating that he is not entirely at fault. Some apology! Give me a break! On second thoughts I'd turn my back on a Komodo before him.
Dirty Twin Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 is this another 48 pages? Please don't sink to that level of personal attacks again. Just let it be. What goes around comes around. Die wiel draai.
jabbathemutt007 Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Yes' date=' I am. Thanks for noting it[/quote']And so is the Komodo Dragon, and I'd trust you about the same. What have you got against Komodo dragons ? They make great pets just so long as you eat them before they eat you.
Witrot Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 windbreaker.....you really don't need to attack grey owl further...we all had our say about what was going on. It was resolved as grey owl said and no one is asking you to buy anything from GO or trust him. and far too much has been written about greyowl' date=' all based on what has been Read on a thread, not based on knowing the facts on both sides. [/quote'] Well, GO has had his chance to put his facts....or didn't he....but seems the outcome of everything put him in the wrong on various points. Sorry to say, must agree with Windbreaker. What really happened to the big apology?? Think if we know the whole story around what happened to the watch, then GO would probably have to give more apologies...but that is to big thing to do it seems.....easy to throw just a cold shoulder to everything isn't it???
