  1. unfortunately its becoming an all too common scam. basicly its a payday scam if said person is short of cash and a week or 2 from payday they sell things half there second hand value so people will buy it fast but dont send it. then when it doesnt turn up the buyer opens a case but by this time the person selling has been payed so drags it out alittle but in the end they refunds with appologies. cheaper then a payday loan with no bad out come

      freak accident buddy, but yes very lucky youngerst was out of the way. dont expect a winch to fail so bad, but when they do it can be catastrophic

      You're lucky, winch failed on the recovery truck that was "recovering" my Mums 206sw. Trouble was it was on a 12% gradient, car shot backwards, knocking the guy over and rolled into a wall writing the car off and leaving Mum with PTSD. That was nearly 3 years ago and she's only just had the compo!

      thats what the media do, blow everything out of proportion. The Issue is people not knowing they are eating horse meat, personally i couldnt give a toss as long as it tastes good and doesnt make me ill.

      The old saying goes

      "I'm that hungry I could eat a scabby horse between two pee stained mattresses " now people moan when they get to eat it lol, I think it should be stopped and blown out of proportion before the snowball effect of people putting other things in other products

      In fact i would be more upset if i found a mushroom in a steak pie than if i found horse meat!!!!

      that would be good. he was 1 of them thats got to be right and your wrong.if it was a face to face sale i dont think id have touched it but to look at it now you would think its a new car.half the spares i got with it are gone now though so need to get some more.

      Well I would in that case give negative feedback if no money off is offered based on the condition. I wouldn't bother with neutral as it won't really count against him.

      it will do with a few new parts and new screws the flat heads let them down.n some better pics tomorrow

  15. they might aswell start asking for stuff for free on ebay they think its freecycle or somet these days!

  16. id love a display cabinet to put my stuff in but the wife wouldnt go for it she doesnt mind me having rc's but to have them on display she would probably want a devorce. as for the carpet i would also opt for a rug as neil mentioned that way it saves the hassle of finding a new carpet but also half the cost so more money for rc's!
