AJ76, PM Me for Payment details.

If you don't pay, I'll put you down as a non-paying bidder on your feedback.

Thanks alot Buddah for the time spent on this crazy thread.

You see, you had me there for £100.00, right up until the point where you threatened me. I will carry out the deal though young man. I will arrange to meet you at the next tourney your at and pay you the £100.00 in person. I will need to check that they are what you say they are, as you stated in your first post. If not then the deal will be off. So please make sure you have a brand new pair of goggles like you have in the picture (I take it that these are the actual ones you are selling??) unless you are going to bring me the camo ones that are in the description with the custom camo strap? You see my point to the whole £100.00 thing mate? I was taking the p*ss. something that I was wrong for doing. What I should have done is what everyone else should do that has taken the p*iss out of you on these forums and IGNORE you. Look at what you put in your other post when you were asking for some goggles,
Okay,

I need a proflex, I have £15 or less. It can be any colour, but must be in good condition. It can have all the custom ****e in the world, I ain't paying more than £15.

I ain't paying anymore than £15?? Just think about how that is written? If you worded that a bit better you would have probably had a better response, but you just seem too arrogant for your own good.

How about in future you think about what you type before you type it? And I am sure that if people think that you have learnt to have their respect then they will show you that in the responses that they give your posts. Myself included. Let’s see if you can show everyone that you are not some annoying little kid but someone that has a bright future in paintball?

Buddha, if you want to ban me for this then cool. But I think that what I have written represents a lot of the people who post in the classifieds

AJ, as soon as I saw that wanted proflex post I immediately thought was: "he'll be buying that to use his olive flex faceplate on, then".

My original (and deleted) post in this thread amongst the ribbing, which I accept was not really needed, also mentioned how annoying these auctions are getting. I mean, look at how WGP is treating AL76...threatening to leave negative feedback? There's no such system here...there's no interface for auctions at all, they rely entirely on people's word as I could post and bid £1,000 for the goggles and I'd not have any real obligation to follow through. Things are bound to get extra complicated and will be the cause of drama, I'm sure of it. Hell there was already something similar in another auction (cant remember what item, some other rare goggs I think) where someone was bidding and backed out at the last minute because he didn't have the cash...so he effectively ruined it for everyone else by raising the price at no cost to himself. Thats entirely unfair, but there's nothing that can be done about it.

Take the auctions to ebay, people!

In all fairness, The title of this thread decribes the googles as Camo, Proflex.

They are neither. How can someone be held to a bid on an item that is being miss-described, and Miss-sold?:confused:

Alright,

I'll get you some brand new ones, as in the picture and get a custom camo strap.

Which tournie?
i know that this is nothing with me, but are you selling something you don't have ? ? you will get some, don't you have them already ? ? don't know if it's legal to advertise and sell something you don't have ! !
and having some mod saying it's ok... to me, it just seams wrong ! ! ! :(

This ends next friday 9:00pm sharp



by the way, if the auction ended on the friday 14 9:00pm sharp , and aj76 posted on saturday 15, the auction was already over, so the bid is not valid ! ! i think ! !

he says in the post next friday so bid is valid.

But along the lines of you other post you are correct, according to trading standards if a product is advertised but not available then it is false advertising as you are leading the buyer into a transaction then fobbing them off with somethign else.

Also with what bhudda is doing with forcing the sale, think thats something else. Not too hot on trading laws atm but it is illegal to force someone into a sale they have already asked to leave.

if you say today next friday, it will be after tomorow, i think ! !
and if he asked for the payment details already, for sure its not this friday, so the bid on a saturday its not valid, because it ended on the friday before ! !
but i don't have nothing to do with this, just think its wrong, someone advertise something that doesen't have, says something and post pictures of something completely diferent, and at the end is "forced" by a mod to buy ! !
just don't think its the right attitude ! !
the right way was probably the mod ask the seller to put things right, or delete the thread ! !
and quoting Forrest Gump, "stupid is who stupid does", so if someone does something stupid it seems fair to me, to be treated like one ! ! :mad:
after all, there's here some honest and respectable people, and coming here and try to sell something that you dont really have its not very honest, to sell a super hiper mega agg mask that is coming from space, people should try pbnation ! !

sorry for all this text, but it what is going on my mind ! ! :mad:

Tuga,

Sorry if my post has created some missunderstanding. But I'm glad that AJ76 did understand (I know I should have thrown in some smileys). I will never condone saying you sell one thing, but actually offer something else.
In all honesty, I am at the moment not too hip on what latest fashionable part is called what.
****, I still play with black (I know the colour is called something else) JT Flex 7 IZE's. With a Cash Money strap. That's how anti hip I am...

Oh, and thread closed, because this one is missing the point totally.
