anzo Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) Morning all,Righto, I spent out my payment for handlebars last Thursday. I haven't recieved any notification that the bars have been sent or that they're GOING to be sent.Hes not been active on TF since 23rd June and so wont see my PM's I've sent him, I've tried to add him to MSN but with no luck...he seems to have disappeared.I obviously checked his refrences before the mulah was sent, and they seemed all good. So, I don't really know what to do now.His TF username is 'ian', how ever I only recently noticed 'formally saracen_m.a.d'...what happened with that account? I know hes a regular on here and I don't think hes ripping me off at all, its just concerning that I haven't recieved them yet, nore as he been in touch.If anyone has any phone numbers, email addresses or anything, it would be uber helpful.

Tony Harrison Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 how ever I only recently noticed 'formally saracen_m.a.d'...what happened with that account? I think he means 'formerly', because 'formally' means 'In a formal manner'. Unless he's only 'saracen_m.a.d' when he's feeling formal.I'm sure there's a genuine reason for his quietness if his references check out ok.

adamtrials Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 I think he means he changed his username from saracen_mad to ian... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Are we talking "Blacklisted trader" "Saracen_mad"? EDIT: No, my bad, the blacklisted Saracen MAD guy was "Saracen--mad", a.k.a. Matt Cooper... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted June 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) This guy.It doesn't say Black Listed on his status or anything and seems to have good feedback?Edit: Mark you pillock, lol. I was seconds away from writing about a rather abusive email. I still think I should though. Its been over a week now, the guy is taking the piss. What the feck is he playing at?

Mark W Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 His refs appear to be good, but if he hasn't been on TF since the 23rd or whenever you said, maybe his computer's shagged or something? Or some other problem... Even so, yeah, I can understand you'd be worried, but I wouldn't have thought he'd suddenly have done an e-runner or anything.

anzo Posted June 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 done an e-runner or anything.E-runner, haha. I'll give him a few days. Does anyone have is home number so I can continously drop call him at 4am every night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 You can't appear offline or whatever on TF and not have your "LAst active on..." thing updated, as far as I know. If you were refering to MSN though, it's possible... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsinchris Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 oh ok its just that i was supposed to be buying them and a team stem for £40 like we both agreed and then when i was about to pay asked "how much are you paying £47", i reminded him that we agreed £40 and he just replied "fine forget it then" and stopped ansering my pm's.

King C Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 He is hard to get hold of but the goods will come. I bought the echo team forks from him and an rb lever all for £70 and they did arrive even if it was a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clownbike Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 I delt with this guy. He seems to be a really nice guy. He did take his time but he was very busy. He had a few family problems and he had also been in hospital. In all honesty this guys just seems to have had a bad time. He will get back to you i'm sure. Just say you weren't sure if he was for real. You can see by his refs he's a good guy, give it time.Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anzo Posted July 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 (edited) Anndd, its 2 weeks today, still not here. Text him last night and he said they've been sent...like he said they were being sent on Monday...Still not here.Turns out I only sent 20 quid, but they were priced at 25, my wrong, and I have said I'll post the fiver when they arrive...although personally I would have thought he'd let me off the fiver seeing how it would have been quicker me to walk to Essex and collect them, than to him to get off his arse and send them.
