thought i,d air this one ,a few on here know about it  :'(

after visiting mk09 ,i purchased a very nice survivor 79 diamonback pro off sparky ,,,it was a birthday present off the missus aswell ,,and a nice set of db pro bars

sparky reckons he only knows of three in the country  8)

anyway to cut a long story short ,i had decided to send it to dan  for a candy finish on top of the chrome ,,decided to do the tnt pick up from home
so left it at the inlaws  :knuppel2:
in the meantime another courier firm turned up to collect some clothes returns ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
this is where it goes wrong
the mother inlaw hands over my parcel with frame and bars in it ,,,with a pre printed label ,,,,,the fookwit then reprints his own label and takes it away  :crazy2:

the next day the missus realises and phones the firm ,,they tell her its still in the area ,,,,,,,,result  :daumenhoch:

NOT     :wtf:

its on its way to leeds ,,,,,,,they tell me after 28 days it will finally end up at its intended destination ,,,,
28 days later ,,,no frame turns up at dans
so on the phone i go ,,,,only to be told they can't find it ,,how the fook do you loose a box that size  :2gunsfiring_v1:

after several phone calls later i am rewarded a £130  compensation pay out as a good will gesture ,im out of pocket by £140 ,,,,w4nkers  :knuppel2:

because the dopey mother inlaw handed the parcel over ,,,the blame was 50/50 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

so the moral of the story is ,,,dont rely on your p1ss and germaline smelling mother inlaw ..to get it right  :10_2_12:

so please  keep an eye out for my stuff lads ,,,especially if you live in leeds,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, in the local rags  :tickedoff:

heres a pic

its got the double drop outs on the front

The FOX race jersey I bought from Dennis winters never turned up and it was the last XXL HC top in red and black so they sent me a better XXL platinum top in red and black cos they knew I was going to race today(which never happened in the end)... Top geezers they are at Dennis winters, will use them again defo.

back in 2004/5 i bought a ammaco with white ally hubbed tuffs white mx 1000's etc for £150 on ebay went missing. the seller tried telling me its my problem. so a solicitor who does work for us sent her a letter and i got a cheque 2 days later. never understand people when they say when it leaves me its your responsibility.lol err dont think so

Pair of NOS yellow Z-Rims  :(  Won them on ebay and were posted from Canada mid October 2009 - still not arrived. Put in a claim with ebay though and they refunded me the full amount including postage  :daumenhoch:

Man, that's a real heart breaker :'( I shouldn't say this out loud but fingers crossed, nothings gone missing for me so far :-\
I did buy an Apple G5 off eBay and the clown selling it sent it just wrapped in bubble-wrap via ParcelFooks who duly dropped it :crazy2:

Royal Mail loose at least 1 thing every week with stuff we send out. It drives me round the bend, with the lengthy process involved in claiming and then only getting a lesser amount we don't even bother claiming now. Twonks.

OS-wise, they lost 4 times (all of which were sent recorded delivery) of the sale I had last year. WTF? How?

Everything over £50 I now send via courier...I use APC and never had a thing go missing yet (fingers crossed!).


I feel for you bro.
