moxy 617 Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 No problem at all. Just a little misunderstanding. Miscommunication and a bit of piss taking. And I'm not a banker! A wanker. yes. But no banker. So can't comment on the cheque Quote Link to post
bwfc 164 Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Im the guy that has bought the pistols,and i have been polite throughout.I even sent the cash via 24hr special delivery and pmed him the tracking number straightaway.Chris and i spoke on the phone tonight and as i previously said he was very polite and genuine.I shall inform you when i receive the items,but i suspect that still wont be good enough to the guy who made the allegations. 1 Quote Link to post
Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Webster ......... Make 100% sure that cheque has cleared before you post anything, sounds a lot like someone is trying to hurry you into sending them before the cheque clears. And remember that cheques can appear as cleared before they actually are. I'd say it sounds like you getting scammed, not the other way around! 5 Quote Link to post

Advertise it again, payment method as bank transfer, you can check it has gone in online and post the rifle out as soon as it has. Life's too short for all that other stuff. 1 Quote Link to post

j j m 6,539 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I will do face to face now,I didn't want the goods sent before the cheque cleared I wanted to know if he had received it he had 3 days to tell me yes or no ,he was logging on and off all three days was it to much to say he's or no I wasn't taking the chance of being scammed so I had every right to cancel the cheque,if he had of said after 3 days yes I've got the cheque there would of been no prop em he handled it badly bye being on line and not answering my 4pms we live and learn there's to manny scammers around to take risks a simple yes or no that's all it would of taking he chose to ignore that's his look out Quote Link to post
sureshot.177 49 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Ok I understand that and yes he should of put more effort in but can't we all get on untill it's proven your a bad apple I used to ride motorcross I was crap but on all the forums I'm on theres never any of this its a shame because most people want to get out and make the sport as big as it can be I'm not an expert that's why I'm on YouTube/hunting life so I can learn but it makes you scared to ask anyone a question because you don't no what response you'll get 2 Quote Link to post
j j m 6,539 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'm all for getting on mate,things happen in life I've put it down to experience and hold no grudges with any one on this forum 1 Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Look JJM and webster this is how you get round all that rubber cheque scenario. We are assured that webster has the gun, nice piccy of him with it etc etc. webster opens a deposit account at major bank, cost £1, a deposit account is used so that there can be no direct debits or standing orders made against it see! JJM goes and puts cash in over the counter, he has the account number so he knows that should anything go wrong he can go to the police and they can trace websters address from the bank! webster checks the balance, knows the money has been put in and sends JJM the tracking number for whatever method he chooses to send the weaponry! Everybody happy, season of good will restored and we can all go hunting mince pies happy in the knowledge that all is right with the world! 2 Quote Link to post
