Evening Stu
True, very true...

However, if i show them that the individual paid me to trade on PassionFord with a legitimate COMPANY CHEQUE, they will take it seriously and you have new options open to you.
Does that example help you to understand my point on this?
Stu, I meant for platinum members to show you the exact same level of certification, maybe charge £40 instead of £20 as a token gesture to differentiate.
Point is, that we are all adults, if I buy something off PF, and it doesn't turn out to be as expected, I either learn my mistake, or, sort it out with the individual... I wouldn't EVER consider running to you for arbitration
When I buy a car off the AutoTrader from a private chap, the paper has no responsibility towards me as an individual surely
