Yo Mr. Kingadongalong....is it your normal practice to send pic's to folk and then sell your goods elsewhere....if it is i'd like to be the first to christen you a double-dealing c*nt of the highest order.

Gone to somebody that enquired about it before me....me being the **** thread starter...what a **** shithouse c*nt.

Since when do wanted threads demand a sale; it's not like you went to his thread, and claimed dibs, that's even if dibs were being taken, as it is the seller's discretion to pick and choose to whom he should sell.

"Wanted" ads are looking for a favor. If the favor isn't granted, why be mad? Why not look for the item yourself, rather than looking for it to be dropped into you lap. Then crying when it doesn't fall in your hand.

I'm sure you going off in this manner is really going to encourage anyone else to offer you a part you are seeking. Brilliant.

Call it what you want down Bronxville our kid, where i'm from when you're on with someone you're on ...the reluctance from the seller to declare a price (after reading my messages twice) but being perfectly willing to ask for address for pic's/and sending 'em.. tell even a numb-nut whats gone on. For fhe record they are usually called 'cock-off merchants' and the practice deemed sharp at best. By the way..a seller of goods ain't doing the buyer a favour...the buyer is backing his/her call with $'s....different dance i'm afraid. Some manners on the firm is a good call.
 
I'm sorry that you feel you have been badly treated, but kingroon is not telling you porkies at all.

On his IF ti build thread I spotted the Moots seat-post and stem and expressed an interest (on 2nd June) if he decided to sell.

He contacted me and we were in discussion prior to your wanted ad being posted.

I am sure his reply to your ad was genuine in case a deal wasn't done with me.

You mean it's a double-dealing gaff Wadsy? Cause in any sort of sensible world if it was called to you (the seatpost/in any thread-in any forum) on June2nd and you had'nt returned the call then the moment the seller flagged up he had one for me...put me on it and you kinda well off it. Obviously from other members crashing into a wtd/i've got/thread by asking directly how much..successfully by hook or by crook blowing the thread poster/wanter out of the plot...how fuckin curteous (sp?).

The fact that there are real gentlemen sellers on here who sell like real gentlemen...who would'nt crash into favour/sale capers by asking 'how much' before claiming dibs.... half suggest somethings out of kilter. Strokes-folks.

Where I'm from you don't carry on like this over the internet; it called being a keyboard warrior, with all the name calling and posturing, amounting in nothing; biting off your nose to spite your face.

Moots posts in 27.2, even layback, aren't the rarest of birds, and another one will turn up. If you don't like the way a deal went down, simply don't deal with that person again. It's called a shit list/blocked persons/etc...

and yes, anyone responding to a "wanted" request ad, is doing the buyer a favor, in helping him source an item. In this community, it's not a merchant's market. I find many of the people I do business with, I become friendly with, and it's a reciprocal relationship. No one is perfect, but you went over the top with all that shit talking, on another member in good standing.

I agree with GoldenEraMTB.

It seems to me asif you didn't get your own way and now the toys are being thrown from the pram.

No one HAS to sell anything to anyone.

Posts like that above.. Won't make you friends.. It CERTAINLY won't get you help.. I suggest you get over it. As was said above. They aren't super rare.. It's a seatpost. In a common size. Try looking on eBay.. STW, Even Pinkbike. I'd like too see how far your complaints like that'd get you with the eBay staff.. "He didn't sell too me but I offered first.. F***ing C*** he is!"

I reckon they'd tell you where to sling yourself and shut the door after you.

Good luck finding the post.

I'd suggest if you want help.. You apologize for your comments above.
 
Thread locked for obvious reasons.

A few points.

1. Language as used by Konatime is unacceptable on here. Even with the *. You are close to getting a temp ban for that reason alone.

2. It's a seatpost. Cool your heels.

3. Until the point at which money changes hands the potential seller can do as they please. Sell it to someone else, chop it up and feed it to the ducks, whatever they want. Welcome to the free market!

My suggestion would be we cool our heels and start again. I can see you are frustrated but that really is no excuse.
