Citroen XM Forum

Sold for £360 this time , opposed to the £440 when George Bid/won it

That's nearer to its value. This person's been so silly though. I was offering him £600 in the beggining, and he was hanging off the phone to me -after I was back up in Scotland.

I then won the auction for £440 and asked him to help by fitting a 2lt-non aircon belt, which I would pay, and again he ignored me -after telling me "he rang around and nobody had one in stock"

Now he will be lucky to sell it for £360.

After I left him negative feedback, he also left me negative saying to "show his emails to me!" to ebay. As if I can hide ebay-mails from ebay. And if we had ever comunicated outwith ebay (which we didn't), why does he need *me* to send them to ebay, doesn't he have them in his "sent" folder??? Not very clever...

He then tried to bluff me by saying to mutually remove the feedback otherwise he'd open a case with ebay. I told him that I'd be very pleased if he opened a case. Also, not to ever contact me again unless through an ebay-case, bec I'm tired of him. Finally, I have ended, "BTW, have u informed the current bidders that the car is not going anywhere as is?"

Since that, he's dissapearred, thanks God.

I just hope the winner of £360 knows that the compressor bearing is seized solid.

cheers

Also the seller AKA 'Brett' couldn't even to be bothered to tidy up the write-up with the A/C pump bearing findings after the belt renewal and has just left it with the old date (Nov 8th) listed when he supposedly noticed the problem

Oh no not AGAIN

Looks like the £360 deal fell thro' and 'Brett's' XM is like a bit of chewing gum stuck to the sole of one of his shoes that he can't shift

Was re-listed but then the new listing ended suddenly (10th Dec), Also the additional text in the ad keeps getting BIGGER AND IN BOLD too must be getting

BTW, andmcit (Andrew) started this thread off, I note that his last forum posting was on 'Sat Nov 14, 2009 @ 11:36 am' , Is he okay/has anyone heard from him ?

I emailed Andrew a while back to check he was okay (I was waiting for a PM and had heard nothing) but no response to the email - this is two weeks back now. I understand he is sometimes away with work, but this seems to be going on a while and there was no suggestion in his last PM to me that he would be away. Is anyone in contact with him by other means at the moment - just to check he's okay?

I also noticed that he hadn't been posting.

Andrew was online last night i noticed so he must be ok, probably just very busy..........

Glad to hear that Andrew is OK. Isn't it strange? I haven't met many of you and yet I feel I know you all and look upon you as my friends! (Sad old git)

Thats what the internet has done i guess, you can talk to someone every night of the week yet you could walk past them in the street and never know........................
