Now, you see, this is where you take back the comments you've just written, as you dont know the up to date info.
I have sent Paul (P_Viddy) a tracking number for his parcel. I do not have a working car this week, so I had to arrange for the parcel to be collected. The earliest time that could be done is Wednesday. Seen as it is already so late, I have upgraded the shipping so it gets there next day for him. I have also informed Paul that i will refund his postage money as way of an appology. The rack was originally Ԛ£30 plus Ԛ£20 postage. I am refunding this Ԛ£20, so he gets the rack for Ԛ£30. Out of that Ԛ£30, i am sending the rack next day delivery, guaranteed before 12 noon, at a cost of Ԛ£24.00 exactly. This means that I have sold the rack for Ԛ£6.00 would I have done this if I wasnt a legitamate honest member of the Zone? No.
I did have the option of refunding all his money and making this a load easier for me, but the man needed a PAS rack. IF/WHEN i meet paul at any meets, I will also be the first man in the queue to buy him a couple of beers, which will wave goodbye to the Ԛ£6 i sold the rack for.
I would much rather help sort someone out and not make any money off it and have the person happy, than to take a wad of cash off someone and to have them turn round in 6 months time and say to someone "he's a right cnut!". At least by sorting Paul out, he can turn round and say "fuck me it took ages to get my parts, but he did deliver and he gave me my postage money back too, which was orite of him, so he cant be a total cnut after all."
sorry to mini-rant, but this saga is ending thankfully and I for one will hope to put this behind me and return to dealing with people in a prompt and decent manner, as I have always done before. These last months have not been good for my Zone reputation and I will be looking to ammend that at any possible oppertunity.
Thanks
Scott
