all lances that i was paid direct for have been sent out. cheques that were sent to me were forward to autobrite. i will contact them to make sure they received them.
if the lances have not been received by the end of the week please let me know via paypal, and i will arrange for a claim to be made with royal mail and return your money to you.

Bloody heck im sure one of those cheques would be mine even though I was one of the first to send a cheque.
I would just love to know how Matt works out who to send a foam lance to and who not to as I have a fellow Yorkshireman who received his a while back now but I still havent received mine.

Something not right here...whether the cheques were sent on to Autobrite or not, and whether they were cashed or not, surely Matt knows whether the lances were delivered to him or not?
I assume not so what's all this drivel about PayPal claims and refunds? Either he has the lances or not.

" sorry not been in touch haven't been well. all ordered and should be here in a day or so."
"sorry guys had quite of few personal problems over the last week or so, mainly with work. The lances are on their way to you. will forward you tracking numbers later."
"All lances that i was paid direct for have been sent out. cheques that were sent to me were forward to autobrite. i will contact them to make sure they received them."
Make of that what you will.

Also another thing, its not like there was 100s of people in this GB that he cannot get in touch with each member individually and let them know what the crack is. He could have saved himself the bad rep if he had done this in the first place.

Have just spoken to Mark from AB, great chap.
Now basically what I gather is that Matt told him at the time that two members were going to send cheques out to AB directly which Mark from AB never received. Matt later said he would get the cheques and forward them to Mark but this never happened.
Now the situation is that not only are some of the members still without their lances but a good handful of members have been let down even though most of them have received their lances now. Also a person who trusted us and offered a great price on these lances has been let down, how bad do we as a community look now since the poor man himself i.e. Mark from AB is also out of money as he has not been paid for two lances which were posted out roughly two months ago according to him.
This seriously needs sorting out guys, we need to raise this issue with Webby also I think.

Agreed. Notwithstanding my alcohol-induced and misguided attempts to infract Matt, I think involving the ScoobyNet Management is pretty much all we can do.
Whether they can actually do anything is another matter, especially given the GB rules:
Was your cheque ever cashed, Kilo_4que? My hunch is that the cheques were never cashed and never posted, in which case the best thing is probably to stop the cheques, and strike a deal with Autobrite direct. This will leave Autobrite to sort the return of the unpaid lances to them with Matt directly and/or to send the boys round

My fitting was very tight too, so I drilled out the hole with the next size up drill bit (sorry can't remember what size it was) and that cured it, but watch out for any swarf getting stuck down the japs-eye.
Sorry to see the group buyers get shafted, hopefully it'll all turn out good for those involved.
It's worth waiting for -

Good luck for those that haven't got them yet. Maybe it's time for a personal visit (not threatening, just to either get your money back or collect your lance).

I'm not sure what Webby can do. If he gets banned, we have no way of contacting him easily (although it's hardly easy at the moment anyway!).
