Big Shame www.fordsspares.co.uk
What a big shame that the plug has been pulled on the site 
Was a good site in the making and is a shame that lennie got so much agro about the site being just for his benifit, which was very unture.
Anyway just a quick thank you to lennie and the rest of his team for all the effort they did put in
Good job lads

Funnily enough, I've just read the same email now that was sent this morning.
I think you'll find he got aggro from people here for not sending out goods and taking payment, then a big delay until when people chased him up..... his other half stepped in and refunded them when she found out ...
I dont know the guy but I'm sure from what I read on the last post that a new house and baby might have something to do with it by the sound of it .....

The site wasn't there just for Lennie to sell his goods as you seem to be giving that impression, it was for all and sundry to sell there goods - a bit like swap shop.
The problems Lennie had were with items he'd sold as an individual thru Pf or Ebay etc.... and had NOTHING to do with the site.
Anything anyone bought thru the site were between the 2 people that were doing the buying and selling and nothing to do with Lennie. All in all Lennie is a nice fella and a good mate, but sometimes has his fingers in toooooo many pies and over stretches himself.
Like Transit Killer said its a shame the site has been closed as it had good purtential(sp) and could of been big, we all know what a pain in the arse Ebay can be. Was a very good idea, shame it got the boot.

This is lennie posting, as i was told by nick321rs abt the post . if anyone has a problem with this, take it up with amod.
Fordsspares MAY well open again, but one things for sure, i aint gonna let it be taken over.
AND ONE BIG THING>NATH. my lack of ability to post items on time has Fuck all to do with anyone,especially you. aside from the people I refunded, not Liza.
as paul says, i have my fingers in too many pies, and iys time to Stop.
this is the first and last time i will be posting on here, but i had to have my say on things.
thanks to all the people whom have fucked things up by not letting me have a link in my siggy, as the benifits was for every one and not me!
so
to you lot!one more thing. Liza has NOTHING to do with this.
o and thanks to all the members of Fordsspares.co.uk, it was good while it lasted.

Real shame i reckon. Not allowing the link in his siggy to a site where fellow ford enthusiats can sell parts and buy parts for free is pathetic.....

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
I had problems with Lennie outside of his site. I bought some items off him December 28th and they still havent come to this day even tho he swore blind that he had proof of postage for like begining of jan (Which he didn't supply of course)
Liza did refund me and I'm thankfull. The problem was it took me 2 weeks of no replys to find out that it was lennie I'd bought off except that he'd sold me the parts under a diferent username, as he had done with other users, that's why I was pissed at him!
Anyway good idea that site was, seing as tho it was dealings between 2 users and not lennie, but PF has the same functions lads let us not forget!!!!

How has this fordspares demise issue suddenly become PassionFords fault?
As for Siggy's and banning's, It may well be in your own interests to obtain a fact or two before making a right fool of yourselves peeps.
As always, those who know the actual facts tend to miss out one or two of them when relaying stories and tales of woe, leaving you looking extremely foolish when you choose to repeat the storys.
As for Fordspares.x.x, its a shame its gone as all in all it looked a pretty usefull commodity for the Ford world. Get her back online Lennie.
