Hi guys, i bought a clutch off ******* a couple of weeks ago but i havent revieced anyhing from him and he is not answering my pm's!

He sounded genuine enough. He cashed the cheque and told me last friday that he will be sending the clutch out by dhl on monday. That was the last i heard from him.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated



Also if anyone knows him, (i know theres a lot of newcastle scooby's out there) please let me know

Tidgy

first off i wouldn't post his address, second is he on hols or something like that? (although a pm to let you know the dealy would have been usefull)

Counting the minutes before this gets locked and deleted.....
You shouldn't have put his address up mate. There may be a logical explanation.

Did he give you a dhl tracking number?
If so you can track it on their website but admittedly 2 weeks is bloody long time even for dhl.

Edit your post to take off his address.
If there is a genuine explaination, he won't thank you for telling everyone where he lives

dbmica

sorry guys your right i shouldn't have put his address up can i delete it?
If he is on his hols then great but he should know that i am waiting for the clutch and i havent recieved anything. What am i supposed to think. i sent a couple of pm's out to people who i thought might know him first but no one new him

dbmica

Done. Cheers for that.

dbmica

no mate he didn't give me a tracking number.
Like i said he told me he would send it dhl and thats the last i have heard from him

He told you it was brand new? As he bought it to fit it but it didn't need doing?

I've had a look through his post's and on 4 days after the clutch was for sale he talks about how he's replaced his (well that's how I read it).

'ive just had the exact same problem in about 100 miles you'll be going nowhere cos the clutch would have completly burned up. def clutch sliping'

dbmica

@ AC

Yep he said it was brand new never fitted.

@ MattW
could be the case, but when you have someones money it's nice to let them know what's going on. I think i've been pretty patient till now.

alwong

People are too nice on here. He hasn't posted since last week and he's not replying to you. Now, if I was you I'd be more than worried.

If he was unwell or on holiday, surely he would have told you? Secondly, if he had sent it by DHL then you'd have it by now??

Sounds very strange to me and I certainly wouldn't want to be in your position. Sorry but just speaking the truth.

If he does come back then good for you.

rfowler

I agree.. cancell the cheque asap

misty

Did you not read the first post?

dave




p.s. Only 1 L in cancel as well!!!

tyron.c

i take it you have already tried directory enquiries to see if they have a number for him?
Have a read through his old posts to see if he has ever posted his phone number as well.

**** happens im afraid with a community as big as this...... there are always one or two bad apples to spoil it for the rest,ive been ripped off twice,fortunatly for me for not a lot of money,but not nice

B9GLY

if he hasnt been online then how could he have replied to pm's?????????? you should have got a phone number for him! why not send him a letter as you have his address?????

its not right the posistion you are in, but all you can do is send a letter and see if you get a reply!

salsa-king

ring him?

dbmica

Thanks for al the replys guys. Still no contact and still no clutch.
mickeywrx if you know him could you get in touch with him for me? i haven't got his number just his address.

The problems not only has he got my money but i need the clutch done asap.
If i dont get the clutch soon i will miss my window then i am really fcuked.
Plus i am going to have to pay for another one

thanks nin

dbmica

well it looks like he's got two names here on scooby net. thats what it looks like to me going by his thread " not starting" https://www.scoobynet.com/general-te...-starting.html

dbmica

still no clutch and still no contact
i was told that he would be contacting me but he hasn't. he has blatantly ripped me off and i am pretty ****'d off about it.
Please dont deal with him in anyway or you will lose your money

Hi Paul,

Sorry you haven't heard anything from Chris yet. He told me he would be sending you a message as per my PM to you.

I'm not sure what else I can do since he is an aquaintance. The best I could manage at the present time, is call round at the weekend and ask for the clutch on your behalf, and send it to you. But, I doubt I'd know a good clutch from a buggered one.

Micky.

dbmica

cheers micky, that would be great. you have been a great help.
After reading the earlier posts i have a feeling hes gone and put it on his car, so he would probably give you the knackered one anyway but its worth a try. i dont suppose he's going to give you my £120 is he .

Fuzz

You have his address FFS. sod the BBS, get round his house and demand clutch or money. If it turns nasty... GOOD, you can get the police involved then.

Theres a slight distance between tyneside and essex. Consult a map if your unsure Which is why, (I don't know why, as it's nothing to do with me?) I'm trying to help out/get this matter resolved.

Micky

dbmica

i would love to m8 but he's in newcastle and i am in fing essex!!

I have some good friends in manchester though. they said they would be willing to go and sort out my problem if i dont get it sorted.

would be a nice drive up there though........

Fuzz

I'd be driving to John O bloody groats if someone that lived there had money and it was mine!
I understand there is a clutch - no - car - go issue though.

Good that you are, well done.
Can't you go round and give him a slap, seeing as you know him, he wouldn't see it coming
