Clownbike Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Can anyone help me get in touch with this guy????I've sent him the money. He claimed to have sent the bike on Thur. The Post Office aim to deliver in 3 working days (inc Sat). It has been 6 days now. This is taking the piss.I've sent him countless emails and he is never online.Does anyone know if he has sent the Zoo python? Has he done this to other people? I will be taking further action with paypal if this is not resolved.Any help would be great!Thanks,Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houseface Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 (edited) unlucky man i hope you get your bike soon,so then you can come back and let me have a go stevep.s:you need to get on msn because i have some pics of my bike if you want to see Edited April 5, 2006 by stevyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil white Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 (edited) don't wait, put in a paypal complaint and they will hold his account and put it in debt so he'll have to pull his finger out and get in touch, do it now if i was you, i bet he comes straight online when you do!it could always be a misunderstanding but you can cancel the claim at any time and it affects neither account, i always do it for lazy posters, go into resolution centre and file a claim.

MadManMike Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 I hate to say it, but why on EARTH did you buy a bike from an individual and go with his word that he'd post it?f**k paying for a bike and hoping the guy was honest... I'd go and collect it myself.Good luck and all, but I personally think you're silly for handing over cash of that amount to someone youdon't know.
