Am I being unreasonable here?

[shaper]

Selling a 650B fork as a 29er and trying to get away with it.  I agree with others, this is fraud.  

[RobertWhitehead]

I have more hair than Barker  . 

the real ROBERT WHITEHEAD would have gone all Barker haines on his ass properly by now. oke would be in a bodybag in the jukskei

 

 

[Escapee..]

What a deeeeek

 

Doesnt look good Robert, I cant see him paying you back

[RobertWhitehead]

He's in Stellenbosch and I am in PTA. So I agree that the chances of me getting this resolved through him are slim. 

 

Where is he and where are you? Can't you just drive there and sort it face to face

[TheoG]

imho, he deliberately scammed you.  He knew it was a 650B and the omission of the thru axle was deliberate.

 

Do what ever you have to in order to limit your loss.

[Eldron]

Me - if I duff something I make it my responsibility to fix and go out of my way to do it.

 

This ahhh I'll chill for the weekend and how about you sell it with some of the parts missing is piss poor behaviour. 

 

You break it you fix it. Pronto like. Especially if the buyer is building a new bike. Stopping a new build is the prime sin!

Where is B Schutte from?

[ChUkKy]

Time to name and shame.

Too many bullshyters and liars are getting away with nonsense in the know that they will get away with it and nothing will happen.

 

The time of playing nice is long gone.

I agree. The lack of thru axle would make it impossible to fit the wheel which is what he intended. Delay started there already.

Whyddoes hhe haveto bea stellenbosch poephol. Now I'm itching to take a drive....

[gemmerbal]

I'm 20 minutes from Stellies... 

 

all jokes aside, sounds like he chanced his arm. drop me a DM if you want/need assistance, ill gladly deliver his fork to his house so he cant claim he never received it - if he REALLY wants it resolved of course...

[Popit]

Sounds like he is a real BOX .

Should have made amends immediately .

Full refund at least ....

Thank you all for the re-assurance that I'm not being unreasonable here. I have sent him the link to this thread and will give him until 14:00 this afternoon after which if he still does not reply I will:

 

• name and shame.  
• report him to the Hub admin.
• Possibly make contact with some of my friends and family who are in the police force to discuss the fraud avenue.
• And lastly I will then provide his contact details to every DM I have received who's willing to provide some assistance - this is super cool. 

So get the popcorn ready folks fun and games and it's not even Friday yet
