Ive Been Had Basically...

Recommended Posts

About 4-5 weeks ago, I spotted a bike on ebay, the seller saying he might swap for a mod. So I emailed the seller and it was adam from trialfutur. Having known Adam a long time I was more please to be dealing with him..except he then told me it wasn't his bike, it was his mates Phil. At any rate, I didn't think anything of it we agreed that my bike and 2 frames was worth only the components of his bike so I posted my bits off to him, he posted his a day late but I was pretty content :)

Anyway a day or two later Adam rang me up and said the ENO I gave him was skipping, which was weird because I made a full video the week before and it didn't skip in that :S But I couldn't say no because Phil and Adam didn't know what condition it as in and I had no leg to stand on, so I said Id swap back. By the time I got my bits off Phil, he'd given me standard black pads on the front which to be honest didn't hold for an endo. An considering I gave him coust CNC's, AND I already had to buy a frame, forking out for some decent brake pads is taking the piss a bit. So I said to Phil that I want my pads back, seen as he wanted his cranks + freewheel back (incidentally I had to post his pedals too because I couldn't get them out of the cranks without raping threads) Anyway Phil said he'd post them on monday. He didnt. I held back from posting from my end too because I didn't trust him, and it seemed I was right. Phil kept texting me saying he wanted me to post mine first but I wasnt going to. Finally he phoned me up and promised me he was going to post on the next monday (a week later) and that I should do the same. I realised he wanted his stuff back and I want mine so its only fair to do so...so I posted on monday, his cranks, his freewheel, his pedals, his brake pads and accidently my BB bolts.

To the day, not heard anything from him. I've spoke to Adam and adam said he'd lend Phil the money to post it, but Phil said no. Ive text him numerous times, rang him numerous times and keep getting piss poor excuses. This is now 3 weeks late and im getting fed up. So im appealing to anyone in the liverpool area who knows him to take the stuff off him, post it to me, and bill him. To say im disappointed is an understatment.

In case theres any confusion as to which Phil Im talking about, no its not big lanky selectbikes phil. This phil rode an Atomz mk3 stock with blue giant forks + tensile cranks, Hes now riding my Onza T-lite with blue rims and the tensile cranks

Also have his phone number if anyone wants to verify him. I think I've got his mums too as she's answered one of the numbers once. (before you ask, I did send a text to his "mothers" phone saying what was he doing)

Please help guys

Thanks

Ok bit more information I found on the box he sent me, with his return adress on it:

Phil Gresty, He lives in New Brighton on the Wallasey

Now that I know where he lives and his full name can I get the local police involved? What sort of evidence do I need? Anyone been here before?

Absolutley no reply from him now, his brother answered the phone and said hed get him to call me back but still nothing

Thanks
