So I was thinking that it might be helpful to have a thread where we can post buyer/seller bewares, and also compliments on who to buy/sell from. I love ebay, but I am more than happy to block anybody who has given someone undeserving grief. I don't have the time in my life to deal with it. So save your friends at FGSS some grief and post your bad experiences here.
Also recommendations on who to purchase from would be great to. It'd be nice to have a FGSS Ebay Favorites list here as well.
Mike & I have just dealt with someone incredibly difficult who wanted their money back on a NOS wheel, so we refunded it and then he told us he was riding it and couldn't believe that we wanted him to send it back! Then told us he wasn't riding it and if we sent a courier he'd pay for it. But he didn't do that either. He was incredibly difficult and we went back and forth forever. The wheel cost £10 and there was nothing friggin' wrong with it. He couldn't understand that NOS and saying something was MINT and NOS were different. We sold 8 of these rims and received no other complaints.
We certainly will be blocking him from any further sales.
His name on Ebay is
Ruperteh.
