Patchelicious Posted March 25, 2021 Share They should rename this thread"One man who had his bike stolen Vs 500 internet lawyers who watch suites"I don't think the several insurance or legal expert opinions given on the various threads are big watchers of suits to be honest.

Jewbacca Posted March 25, 2021 Share Is Suits the show with the chick that was recently on Oprah? My missus watched half of season 1 a few years ago. We aren't big TV watchers. I prefer books and family... and sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas_187 Posted March 25, 2021 Share I think I flew over your head, I was being a sarcastic w**ker because the guy giving his 2 cents worth would have difficulty wearing that suite Edited March 25, 2021 by Andreas_187 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark Posted March 25, 2021 Share I wonder if the op has informed his insurer of the loss of his bike, you are supposed to do so within 30days whether you claim or not. If the op's pro-boner law suit is thrown out of court due to being frivolous can he be held liable for covering the defendant's costs? splat and Dicky DQ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BevanHB Posted March 25, 2021 Share I believe you own a Cash Crusaders, would you care to share with the people on this thread the sales invoice showing how much you purchased this 1992,2016,2018 Cannondale for? Some of us would love to know. FootballingCyclist, Gen, Barry_W and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEMEH Posted March 25, 2021 Share Not a Franchisee of Crusaders, thus unable to provide you with the invoice.Back to what I believe is reasonable and expected: I was expecting the following: BMC can get a pre-owned frame, load the same components (cost of labor is zero for them) and satisfy the customer whos heart was broken by unfortunate misfortune, the total cost to them probably would been less than R15k-20k, this is how I would of dealt with my customer!!!Since it falls on the deaf ears prior: I'M NOT GOING TO CLAIM FROM MY INSURANCE, NEVER. I suffered a loss and therefore intend to recover it legally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEMEH Posted March 25, 2021 Share I'd conservatively estimate, based on my personal experience, that Crusaders pay up to 30% for value of the item, the math's is simple pay less 70%, multiply it by 2, and the selling price would be around 40% less than the same from Game. Again I'm NOT part of Crusaders FranchiseThe stolen black Cannondale was recovered not so long ago (late last year I my memory serves me well) from Milnerton Crusaders Franchaise, saw many posts on FB, was for sale at R17999.00, the exact specs are NOT know to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted March 25, 2021 Share Then why have insurance? I suspect he does not have insurance, hence why trying every other route. Patchelicious and Gen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR 1.0 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Does the fact that you are struggling to convince your fellow cyclists that you have a valid case, where usually we'd be all pitchforks and lynchmobs when we feel one of us have been done in (think of the Cyclesure incident a couple of years ago), not a red flag to you?
