Guys Guys

 

So obviously the public is only hearing one side of the whasup and conversation here.

Let him also post the rest of the whasup and then you guys will see that i said i will 100% reimburse him when i come to Pretoria on the weekend of 7th feb . And he refused to.

 

its always very easy to climb on a tram when everyone is throwing rocks at the same person.

 

- Yes i do own a service center and im proud to say that i do i have more then 15 year experience in this field.

so obviously im i so stupid (TO SCAM THIS GUY OVER R4100) 

- so guys before you guys just post, get the right info first from both parties

 

I'm always a guy that want to support the industry and the millions of people that ride bikes.

 

If you guys have any queries and really want to hear the story , please phone me 072 235 3385

 

Sorry dude, no matter how you want to swing it or what was said on WhatsApp, bottom line you are at fault.

 

I'm glad to see you owned up and made the refund, it was the right thing to do.

 

Good luck with the damage control as far as your business is concerned.  Hopefully that will make you think twice in the future about these type of transactions.

Guys and gals (If there's any here) - Mornè has sent me the proof of payment and he has also requested that I post the full conversation from our dealings on WhatsApp here on this thread. 

 

Just to be clear, I've not sent anything to anyone else about Mornè, I re-listed the fork in the hope of selling it on. So here's the full conversation. I have removed the banking details for both parties envolved

Hi All,

I know Morne personally and can attest to his person. He is not a scammer and a really decent person. He is working at getting admin right. He clearly in ignorance made an honest mistake. He made an honest mistake with me also in the past, but he was truly willing to make right and it lead to a great relationship built.

We are always quick to fry someone without knowing them from a bar of soap. Now, can we calm down and give this guy a chance?

Surprised that Matt hasn't plastered Bike Hub Pay all over this thread. 

And for gods sake close it.It has been resolved as far as I can tell.If another person posts about the difference between 271/2 and 29 I will slit my wrists or something equally dramatic

Admin...

I want to remove the comment on Mr Morne's marketplace profile but there is no function?

I remember being able to view feedback left for others? or am I high?

 

anyway....please assist.

 

Edit: Also, bring back comments for classifieds

To add to this request above.

 

ADMIN, feel free to remove my Rating on Robert's profile as soon as the review from Morne is removed.

15 years experience and you don’t know the difference between 29” and 650b

I've been riding bikes for 30 years and occasionally I try to unscrew a LHS pedal in the anticlockwise direction. It doesn't mean that I don't know the difference. For what it's worth, Morne once managed to get a Lyne dropper post working again, which I'd already once sent to Lyne to look at themselves because it was sticking. (And no, it wasn't an overtightened seatclamp). My point is that he's not the clueless mechanic some people are trying to paint him out to be.

 

And then there are people calling him a scammer. It's a very strange scam where you stay in touch with the person you conned, offer to pay him back... and then actually pay him back. 

 

It was a mistake to send the wrong fork and inconsiderate to not refund right away. The OP was correct to be annoyed. Morne stuffed up there and he's owned it. But it's nothing more sinister than that. Still people skim read the thread and resort to lowest-common-denominator behavior because they want to make a contribution on a popular thread. The truth is boring and bad news spreads faster.
