Regular Posts: 165 ![]() ![]() ![]() | I have the feeling that this has the potential to be the biggest thread in the history of MetroPower! No names but have 'sold' stuff to four members through the for sales section with only one coming good. Nice people but generally a nightmare to do business with! | ||

Metchimad - Complete timewaster, said he was paying £10 for some rear braided hoses over a month ago. I guess his paper round money hasnt been as good as he expected. Avoid. | |||

There was a time when you would create a thread and recieve positive feedback...now you have to think twice just incase some "numb-nuts" decides to to post something to start a full on war... the amount of therads that dont end "happily ever after" on here is rediculas. Again internet culture as those who start the war are little more than a Keyboard Warrior in real life. | ||

Again internet culture as those who start the war are little more than a Keyboard Warrior in real life. Is this back in the good ole days when a Metro was worth more than 2 shillings and sixpence? It is not representative of internet transactions, it is hugely abnormal and probably due to the fact that they are a cheap disposable car, so are primarily owned by people who don't have much money and so fail to pay postage. To try to brandish every website as being as poor as this one for transactions is either daft or just plain ignorant. I advertised on here and got treated to the 10p gangster timewasters, they talk the talk but have as much ability to walk the walk as a f**ing paraplegic. Should I say I will avoid everyone? | |||

Nope you are totally correct, it is the influx of disposable buyers, buying a car for peanuts and then trying to perform the cheapest possible mods. So yes it would be back in the days of the Metro being worth more than 2 shillings and sixpence. Fortunately i stil deal with people who are grateful of the expertise avaliable and actgually listen ![]() So no dont avoid everyone, there are some of us that talk the talk and walk the walk better than the 10p gangersters...sell Sh*te tho and we will still walk away!

Timewasters are indicative of every forum, it is part of life unfortunately. Take the case above where Ceberea was selling something then the guy manages to reply on the same day yet claims computer issues? Possible, but unlikely. Genuine enthusiasts are rare on any forum as when people get a windfall they tend to upgrade to a superior car, as harsh as it sounds in Metro world that means any other car on the market. Thats why people buying a cheap car and being able to justify time and money on putting these 1.8 engines in that everyone harps on about is few and far between. Most dreamers are probably just blowing smoke up their own arse as any car in mint/clean condition attracts a premium and it isn't worth doing it with a nasty nail which most are now. | |||

Am I correct? ![]() You will find it is regional coloqialisms or just a shared train of thought. It was actually Wayne that refered me here when I was selling a car so although you are wide of the mark I do know him, yes. | |||

Further more mate i do 60 hrs a week work so since you got so much time on your hands, to make a thread about 10 quid you can kindly go braid where the sun dont shine, as you seem to be losing brake pressure............... ![]() Metchimad, You contacted me regarding the Goodridge hoses on 26th May which was a Monday and said you wanted the hoses. I provided my paypal address and you said you were going to paypal me the money over at the weekend, as you didn't have the £10 at the time ![]() So I stand by my decision that you are a TIMEWASTER, and dealing with you should be avoided. ![]() TBH I dont care how many hours a week you work, if you make an arrangement, stand by your word and keep to your promises. Otherwise it's just messing me, and others around. By the way, I'll think you'll find it's you loosing brake pressure, why else would you be looking for braided hoses. ![]() | |||
