TOPIC:

Yeah, I'm an idiot. I was looking in the trades section instead of the forum.

The text is shown on every topic made in these three categories:

• For Sale
• Wanted
• For Trade / Swap

It also shows on top of these categories.

Users may hide the text shown under the categories, but may not hide the text when viewing a topic.
The Forum Software does not allow me to put the text into the "Trades Section"- for some reason.

It's not so much all about the money that got lost, ok i don't like throwing it away like that
but i also really wanted the Nissan truck. I have 1 lying around for long now and with the parts of the 2 could restore 1 !! And that's the most grieving while you don't see too many good ones around (for normal prices that is).
But thanks to Lars i got the ebay adress and name again. So i did send him a nice little note where my truck (or money) is atm and what's he going to do about it.
So maybe i am lucky or maybe not, we will have to wait for his response.

Cheers, Bram

True point, i once bought a Nissan King Cab from someone subscribed to this forum...it never arrived and the person never came online again either
so another 70 gbp thrown away
so don't get your hopes up too high if someone "new" here tries to sell you something!!

Cheers, Bram

Is this the same chap?

Bottom line is, it's always happened, it's always gonna happen, people need to appreciate this & be careful. The internet's been useful against scamming though, it's been really good for getting the word out quickly to far more people. This however, also works both ways...
