Not wanting to sound unsympathetic, but if the "only" reason you have a gold membership is to sell parts, doesnt that just confirm your status as a trader?

i think it seems fair if you were breaking your own car or selling stuff from your car to buy better stuff like most of us do thats ok but to break 3 focus st's is really trading

Hadnt read the gold & trader account info bit until just now, as Im not that into Ford ownership and dont currently have one. Having read them it does state that 4 cars per annum can be sold as a gold member.

Being pedantic, it doesnt say that they have to be sold in one piece, so perhaps the OP does have a point?

before you start crying for sympathy,get your facts right,yes i banned you from selling,and sorry your stupid comment about being in competition,is totally wrong,for starters i dont and have never sold Focus ST parts so where is the competition ? Oh and by the way Iam retiring form selling RS parts if you didnt know but I will still weed out the bedroon traders on this site,so what excsue will you have then ?
and obvioulsy you havnt noticed i havnt traded on this site for a year
you were reported by another member for trading and as i said in the PM which I may add is "private" now if you want to air your dirty washing in public go right ahead
you have been caught out and its always the same old excuses,pay the fee if you want to play at business man like everyone else has to instead of freeloading
Oh by the way I encourage bedroom traders when caught out to join the site as a trader to help there business go forward,is this the action of some who is worried about competition,I think not

how is that? i dont have engines, I used them! As stated, I realise there is no point arguing with a brickwall, I simply either want my gold membership refunded or access to the for sale forums on the understanding i wont sell st parts, which seems to be the issue. I think that is more than reasonable, as it means you dont have me selling the parts and I still have the access I paid for.

I may have sold plenty of parts in the past, but that doesnt make me a trader, as stated, I do have my own business, it isnt selling car parts.

to be honest after having another look through your post history,it seems you have already been warned about selling multipul items IE screen cleaning cloths,and i also see you were trying to sell electric drills are you some sort of barrow boy selling on markets ,so no your selling days are finished iam afraid as its unfair to other members and paying traders

lol, i have never been warned before. Is it seriously ok to insult members on here, as a mod? You have a reputation as a rude trader, but you are representing someone elses site now.

I made a perfectly reasonable request above, and you reply insulting me, how is that on?

I wish to still use the gold membership I paid for, to sell my own items, I wont sell anything that can be perceived as trade, how is this a unreasonable request? Either that or refund the gold membership.

Please try and reply to me withut insulting me this time. I know this doesnt come easily.

have i missed something here,where have i insulted you ?? I think its the other way (I have binned you post insulting me by the way)around but you dont see me crying about it.
I have looked into your request regarding selling,you have openly admitted you only joined this site to sell,seeing you are not allowed to advertise cars and parts what else is there you would like to sell as again you have been found out to be trying to sell multipul items of cleaning cloths and drills,so how can you be trusted
by the way my reputaion has nothing to do with anything even though I have one of the best reps in the business,but were not talking about me now are we
Oh and if your going to reply please try not to throw petty insults just because your getting flustarted

How are you not understanding this?

I didnt only join to start selling, i have been a member for ages, i dont think i was even gold for a fair while.

I dont see why I could not sell parts and cars if they were my own bits, and not me breaking a car. I will not sell multiples of stuff, i admit drills and clothes were from my business, i put them on here at a lower price as thought people might like them, fair dos on that one.

If you really cant see the sense in that then I would like my gold membership refunded.

For the record you insulted me by calling me "some kind of barrow boy market trader". It doesnt really make the site look good when a mod resonds like that to a reasonable question. You are still doing it, look how polite my posts have been, and how rude yours have. You would ban me if it was the other way around.

your memory obvioulsy isnt as good as mine,a "barrow boy market trader" is the name for that proffession or didnt you know ??
you insulted me by the way not the other way around,would you like me to copy your insultive post which i have removed just to remind you ??
yes i can see sense and i can now see what you do,hence all your adverts for various items
sorry there are no refunds on this site as the rules are plain and clear to understand,obvioulsy you havnt read them
sorry but we cant have one rule for you and then another for others,its unfair,I understand what you do wont make you a fortune on here selling rags and drills ect but the rules are the rules
you did join to sell by your own addmission,or have you forgot what you wrote in your very first post
"i want my gold membership fee back please, since the only reason i have it is to sell these parts"

no, the only reason i have gold is to sell stuff, same as any other member i imagine! i have said i wont use it to trade, either allow me to use it same as anyone else, or refund it. simples.

i know what a barrow boy is, and you clearly meant it as a insult, same as going on about me "crying".

you can copy my previous insult if you like, or i can just rewrite it, i believe I called you "a bitter, failed breaker" or something along those lines. I am bewildered you are a mod, you are obviously incapable of being reasonable, polite or even understanding the most simple of concepts.

I have pm'ed admin now asking for a refund, as it is clearly never going to work trying to come to a reasonable solution with you. If you had warned me and deleted my posts I would have stopped. However taking money and then removing the services paid for is clearly not on, so a refund is in order.

Im sorry but I agree entirely with Pete on this one.

I would also suggest that you were also selling on behalf of non members with the two cars that your mates had engines from surely these were their cars... and if not, buying cars and then breaking them on here for profit is classed as trading whatever way you want to look at it.


Then you go on to admit that you have been selling clothes and drills from your business and you still think youre entitled to a refund of the gold membership fee!!

come off it!!!!
