TheoG Posted February 4, 2021 Share Nope, the latest was that he will repay me if I send the fork back. Only once he receives the fork will he repay me. So I have proceeded to list the fork on my side and we'll see if I can get any buyers who needs it. Unbelievable! He's willing to risk his entire future over relatively not a lot of money, idiot!

Eldron Posted February 4, 2021 Share Unbelievable! He's willing to risk his entire future over relatively not a lot of money, idiot! Makes no sense. The buyer had to trust that Morne would send the fork after he sent him the cash but when the situation is reversed it's a no go. I don't know this Morne character but damn he sounds like someone to be avoided at all costs (pun intended). If your character really worth a few grand? Just 1 customer lost due to this is probably the price of the fork. Makes no sense. The bike market in SA isn't big enough to be a ****.

DieselnDust Posted February 4, 2021 Share At every further step in this saga Morné just proves that he has a lot more P*** to give. Grade A super twat. If he has a friend in this community who still holds an incling of respect for him go and talk to your friend because we are gatvol of people like him in our industry and will never stop bad mouthing till he closes his doors and then we'll follow him from there. He's a thief a trickster. A fraudulent operator #voetsekmorne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowbee Posted February 4, 2021 Share I have no idea, it is possible. I have never met him before but he did mention that he owns a service centerI am sure you have had a few offers, but if you need someone to go look at the fork for you, just ask. I will go look for you now worries. And then report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Boab Posted February 4, 2021 Share The OP has the fork...he wants to see his money. I am sure you have had a few offers, but if you need someone to go look at the fork for you, just ask.
