I'm not sure that there will be a tracking number. When mine was delivered on Saturday morning it wasn't a "sign for" delivery.
Like Tim Hardisty I took out a dispute with paypal so perhaps our two deliveries were prioritised. I don't know what else to say to you. I do know how cheesed off you must be feeling though.

Especially thosel ike me who were one of the first ones to pay.

Im really pi$$ed now, regardless of weather they come or not I am sorry to say but he is now marked down in my bad books. I appreciate he had problems but if he can send them out to people who have raise paypal disputes then surely he can send out ours who paid via cheque

No more messing about.

Matt, you have 24 hours to get in touch with me directly to let me know you're sending the lance. If I don't hear from you, the dispute I've raised with Paypal will be escalated to a claim.

Also, if I don't get my lance within 3 days, regardless of whether you get in touch or not, then I will escalate the dispute to a claim.

I'm now past caring whether or not you're having personal problems. For the record, my wife is in hospital having been rushed in for emergency surgery. I shouldn't have to be dealing with **** like this and people like you. I thought you were a decent bloke.

I just dont understand Tim. There obviously should not be a problem sending them out as he has done so for those who have raised disputes via paypal. So I guess hes only sending those which he knows he has no other option but to send immediately otherwise he will be shafted with a Paypal claim. Other bargain hunters like me for the sake of a few pennies didnt go the Paypal rout and look what happened. Cant do squat all about it

If I could do anything about this, I would. I closed the Paypal dispute as mine was sorted, and I can't escalate it or reopen it now. This guy - whatever his problems - has NOT got his priorities right.

For what it's worth - and I'm not making excuses for him - the postage on the Post Office label on mine was over £11. I suspect he's shot himself in the foot by getting them all delivered to himself and is out of pocket.

Am I bovvered...

Aah damn Tim its so frustrating. I know its only 50 odd quid but its the prinicple of the matter. And regarding the postage, I wouldnt give a rats a$$ to be honest, ive paid and simply expect the lance.

If that was the case, then the time to come clean was about 2 weeks ago. I would have had sympathy then. Now I'm too tired after spending 2 days running around between home and hospital and explaining to a 3 year old why Mummy isn't around. I just want this resolved one way or another and quickly.

Haha that reminds me when some smart alek decided to add the turbo lance on my Karcher to see if it removes dirt better without having to actually wash the car. LOL that was an expensive wash as his near side wing needed respraying lol

Oo a little chuckle in an intense moment

I've got to agree with all of you, it's out of order. I was one of the last to join the group buy and I paid up over 5 weeks ago. The delivery of all the others is well overdue

This is SO easy to sort. Come clean, explain you've made a f*ck up, and ask forgiveness and explain what's needed to sort it.

Instead, he doesn't come on here, but does play golf, and only responds to PayPal threats so as not to besmirch his PayPal/eBay/whatever reputation. This sucks big time - and if I wasn't such a mild mannered chap, I'd want to kick the f*ck out of him.

Lol ask Enigma what i told him id do. But lets leave it at that huh.

You see now even if he does come clean I wouldnt be interested.

Also a note, I know our good friends Tim and Enigma are here supporting us but am i right in saying that so far its only me and Notorious Rev without their lances since no one else has voice there concerns for a few days?

Probably p*ssing in the wind, but is there anything we can do to get the Scoobynet "management" involved?
