Real Problem With A Seller


Synergy

Recommended Posts

ok sorry to post this but im getting soo annoyed at this (im not mentioning his name).

i sold a frame to someone on here for 70 quid with bb and headset and chain.

sent it fine and he recieved it, i have had nothing but complaints about this breaking and that being wrong BUT.....

when i had it there was nothing wrong with it (ask my fellow riders who have rode it).

he says the bb is sliding about all over the place and there is no threads but i dont understand how this can be if i rode it 10 times and it has only had one bb put it it since i bought the frame brand new.(proffesionally fitted by a trials shop)

he is complaining he wants his money back but i dont think i should because there was no problem when i ad it.?

EDIT he recieved it yesterday and is telling me now. he is a member of tf.

When did he start complaing about it, the seccond he got it or a few days/weeks in ?

I mean it could be he rode it with a loose bb and raped it hiself etc.

I reccon he has bust it and is now trying to play you the fool and get his money back.

update,

he says in half an hour he rode to his mates changed bb with an old onza one(same as mine) and its fine now but he left the bb at his mates house.

is it me or is that suspicious? he is a ttly sound guy otherwise though, like isnt aggressive or that and has had good feedback.

but there was deff not a prob when i had it as david says.

It's me who bought the frame.

It came fitted with a BB a headset and a chain as he said.

I have spoken to him on msn and I believe he didn't know anything about it. The frame isn't completely raped but at the time I thought it was (bear in mind I only got 20 mins riding out of it). I took it to my mates house and we took the BB out and it was nackered (which i'm not too bothered about since it was a freebie).

Some of the threads in the BB shell were pretty scuffed up and there was some metal shavings in there from the shell.

The bottom bracket had obviously worked its way loose but as soon as i realized i was loose i stopped riding. I didn't check it before I rode it which I probably should have.

We have fitted it with a new BB and it seems to be ok. I haven't ridden it yet so it's still a question weather it will hold.

I don't see the need to make a topic out of it though, we have been discussing it on msn for the past hour.

EDIT: i took it to my mates after we had spoke on msn by the way.

if you pay 70 note's for a frame then id say you cant realy complain if it doesent last very long.

Not true. If the seller claims everything is fine then it should be, and hence should last for a long time, regardless of what price it is sold for.

Yeah its called something like "false advertising" or something like that.
