Would this not have been better if it had been sorted through trading standards? (you can still use them for Ebay sales) or the small claims court rather than publicly shaming the seller to the passionford mafia? I don't know either party involved but I believe this is the wrong way to go about things, damaging someones reputation doesn't make them want to sort things out for you in my opinion.

if there is a legitamte reason then the other party can post up the reasons and everything is aired in public

so either the reputation of both individuals goes up, or the seller is prooved to be a skank

just look at atm

then a few weeks later he threatens to leave this name and shame thread on pf if i dont send some other parts that i didnt have and he thinks he has paid for ,news to me !
as for money i owe him ??? he has had all that he has paid for and in addition i have paid for delivery of the items twice if not 3 times

as for time scales this all took aprox 2 months not 7

ive no idea on who this other person from some other forum is as its not in my nature the "rip people off" just goes to show how there isnt a flurry of users putting there part in eh?

what he thinks he is going to achieve with this thread who knows

R5FORD no it was not me that was boasting about the amount of torque my cars got ,get your facts right before opening your mouth please!

and further to this anybody attempting to damage any of my property will be delt with in the apropriate manor! like for like

I personally think its great to discover issues on a forum, makes me really grateful to be made aware of such things, what makes or breaks someone's reputation imho is not the issue in hand but how they react and respond to the problem

Take the issue displayed in the thread below, this vendor got a right slagging off for his product in another thread from an unhappy customer, he took it on the chin and resolved the issue which resulted in a happy customer which is important.

I have contacted trading standards already they cant really do much and as for court proceedings they are in the process. Things like that take too much time. I wanted to name and shame this guy for numerous reasons i was kind of hoping he would put his hands up and resolve the issue. Also i dont want anyone else being scammed. Being a public forum i thought it would be best everyone knows and also as said above gives the oppertunity for open discussion. If Mr McMillan could reply and sort this openly it would be good f him. I have nothing at all to hide i want to openly prove how much of a liar he is. I can copy and past every single message through ebay and through this forum also bank statements etc. He only replied on page one, notice how he hasnt replied since, the answer is simple if he says anything wrong i can PROVE him wrong. For example its quoted above i threatened him through pms i can quite easily paste all my messages question is can he? So Mr McMillan can we talk openly and get the facts out for everyone to see?
