This community here is built on a level of trust. If you abuse it, it affects all of us. Swindlers, chancers and dodgy okes will get called out.

That being said, yes there was a delay in getting the part for the fork. As agreed earlier this morning, we will cancel the sale and you will get your money refunded by close of business today TheoG, Popit, BigDL and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge_Design Posted September 1, 2022 Share There's no money coming... I don't think he has told you one honest thing since the start of this. I don't even believe he has a daughter - if he does, she doesn't know anything about the money she is supposedly giving him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steady Spin Posted September 1, 2022 Share What a crock of ****. Sorry to say but this sad sack story reeks of a camp fire. At least Lionel's name (if that is even real) shows up first page on Google if you look for him. Shebeen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Brigando Posted September 1, 2022 Share Well, as I've waited just about as long as swannie for my refund, I'll post my experience with @ysteryetihere too. I was interested in the same Bianchi frame + fork combo that swannie was. The morning after the ad was posted, I received the same call, and was told someone was going to take the combo for 5k, and if I could do better (5500) then I could have it. I said I'd take it, he asked for a deposit, and I paid R500. I received the same replies, the same excuses, and I've been led on for a full month on this bike sale - absolutely nothing. I've travelled to joburg so I could be there when he drops the frame off at my parent's house, and I've tried to make it as easy as possible for him to get the frame to me. Obviously I now know there was never any intention of giving me the frame/fork. About the time when this thread was posted, Lionel offered me a refund of the R500 deposit - I have still not received this, despite multiple promises that it would be payed by the end of the day of the message. I can only assume I'm not ever getting this money back either - which does slightly screw me over as a student, but I'll survive.

You have one excuse after another! " I messed up" - what a joke! Is that what you call defrauding people! Don't come with your sob stories about how terrible you feel - you insult the intelligence of all who are now following this saga.
