Yorky911 On Ebay

[Funkyworm]

Has anyone had any dealings with this guy or is he on here ?

I've had a nightmare, he had a load of bmx stuff listed on ebay,  I bought some Shimano DX pedals from him before the bank holiday & then won some Peregrine Masters just afterwards for £64.22.

The DX's still haven't turned up

I asked about the postage costs for the Peregrines before the item ended as it was very high at £25 & he said that i could arrange a courier , I agreed to this and asked him to let me know when the item would be available for collection & suggested as an alternative & to help him out that maybe he used my hermes & dropped them off at a local point so that he didn't have to wait in for the collection(either way it would only be around £12 max).

I've been trying to contact him for over a week now  to confirm what he wants to do & how much he wants paying as he needed to ammend the final price & Ive had nothing back. Then today I get a message saying he'd had the wheels taken off of him as he's lost his partner 2 years ago & his partners family reckon that they belonged to them 


Basically I reckon he thinks he sold them too cheap & was holding out for me to pay the £25 postage to make some extra profit & has sold them on outside of the bay so if someone on here hasn't got them already please  feel free to tap him up. I've  opened a dispute on the pedals & shafted his feedback.

Cheers Danny, I did see the feedback but i thought there was nothing to lose by taking a punt  as clearly now i see that the 2 bad feedbacks were from you 

I got a refund out of him for the wheels & i'm confident ill get a refund for the pedals too as he reckons he has a reciept but he didnt send tracked & without that I'll should get my money back.

The main thing is that i had plans for the wheels, they were mint & i've bought other parts to match up with them . Looks like i'm gonna have to re design my build now & I was really looking forward to doing something a little different with the colours i had planned.

no problem mate  the bloke is an idiot ,
he did have a lot of nice bits that have all gone cheap, due to him not having a clue what things were and what they was worth
and all his wright ups for his parts was really bad 
he had 2 mint condition haro group 1 stems,1 went for £50 and the other went for £60
1 used haro stem he had only did £34 i think 
i am sure you will get your money back,hope you get it sorted

The guy is genuinely clueless so him saying the pedals were DX and that he thought the hubs were sealed were probably both honest mistakes.

Do you think 2 negative feedback comments is a bit harsh based on that? 

Would you have given them to him if he was still allowed to give you one back?

Just wondering as it's not fun to sell on eBay when the deck is always stacked in the buyers favour.   

Just added you to my blocked bidders list as you ain't holding a gun to my head over parts for children's bicycles.

were there no photo's of said items 

[dannyrobo2012]

yeah i think neg was fair when he was telling me to f*ck off after ive paid for bits thats clearly not in the box when i open it
i allays asked the question on parts before i bid,and said i wouldn't bid as much if there not what i wanted,all i got in reply was abuse  
i just said you no what mate ,leave it , i just wont bid again , his other feedback speaks for its self
he does no what things are,  he just thinks things are worth a lot more, and does not have a clue on what to put about them

[dannyrobo2012]

the photos was always distance so what looked like dx pedals was sx pedals
yet when i kindly told him the different s he said he new because he had some in his other auction for sale
 (red ones i guess the lad above bought )
one of his replys was o well they look like them,i dont see what your moaning about,you got the bike cheap
i said not moaning mate  i just want what i was told i was bidding on

[adenough]

I agree, if they were sold as DX then that's what should be in the box!

[dannyrobo2012]

my thought as well

1 component on a full bike mis-described?

A blind man on a galloping horse could tell they aren't DX pedals.   



Not sure if they even made a sealed Z hub.

Both negatives seem a little harsh IMO.

Bloody 'ell, they aint that far away 

[Gnarlyscoots]

I could see they were SX instantly. Reflector brackets and stripes across the centre of the pedal ends.

And I run my PC through the TV that sits about 8 feet from me

24 feedback 6 of them neg-that would tell me something is not right with what this seller sells

[dannyrobo2012]

maybe you have been into bmx bikes a lot longer than i have, and you know what your looking for.
i didn't know the different s and when some one says to me your bike will come with shimano dx pedal ,that's what i expect

This is my dad you're talking about.

This is my dad you're talking about.

Really The guy told me  that his partner died 2 years ago & that there had been a dispute over the ownership of the wheels. His partners parents believed that the wheels belonged their deceased ((((((((Son)))))))) & took the wheels from the seller in question so that he could not complete the sale of the wheels to me ....  Sounds llike your dad has some colourful preferences Rich
