Asad Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 cant really add to whats been said but, i wouldnt offer him jack....ive not known you for long but i do know your an extremely generous person especially when it comes to business and being true gent with matters like thisthat being said id let this one go iddy, youve offered him a cracking deal which he didnt take.....just seems to me hes got another damaged set or w/e and wants to pull a fast one....3 months is a long time to want your money back for a second hand itemalso can we see pics of the damage?

Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 It's a very tough one for me..They have now decided they don't want to purchase new coilovers but will accept £200 as a refund, so I may just do that to keep them happy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Iddy your to soft dude :-DI just put myself in the buyers shoes to understand both sides.. if the coilovers went to their house then it would be their fault for not checking them, but there's three parties involved including the garage that they were sent to.Awaiting pictures now.Iddy your to soft dude :-DI just put myself in the buyers shoes to understand both sides.. if the coilovers went to their house then it would be their fault for not checking them, but there's three parties involved including the garage that they were sent to.Awaiting pictures now.

james@cjperformance Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Id tell them where to go mate,.who om earth waits 3+ months to ask for refunds etc, the 3g should or whoever accepted the package should have checked the contents upon delivery where any defects/damage can be rectified. Dont put yourswlf out of pocket for someone being a complete mug.As others have said your far to soft on people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Agreed! Id not offer a refund after three months mate! The garage is at fualt for not checking them plain and simple. You sold what you say where good coiloves therfor your part is done. If they had come back to you sooner the couriwer would foot the bill. his loss not yours. your offer of discounted bc's is very nice. if he dosnt want to take you up on it again his loss! You shouldnt lose out over this imo atal!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletburkie Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 id be wanting the coilovers back iddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 I have now received pictures and it looks like it's just the keys that are bent! It looks like a very small issue to me. I can't remember whether the D2s keys are removable, but either way it looks like an easy fix. The last picture isn't a bent top mount, it's a pillow ball type so they rotate side to side like that.

Asad Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 the knobs will still work, if hes still anal about it they can be got as spare parts/>http://www.jdmregiment.com/index.php/browse-by-brand/d2/adjuster-knob-3mm-hex-coilovers.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 They definitely don't want to use them so I'm going to happily buy them back at £200, I'd be silly to say no - it's a bargain imo, and perfect for someone who is building a budget track toy!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 why dont you just refund him the repair cost??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 They won't accept that. It would be better for them to do that, as they won't be out of pocket, but they have chosen to lose £150 and send them back to me instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 lol bit daft by them but your up on money so hey ho.....get them back before you send the money tho its bit you in the arse before bro Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Cheeky fuckin git, Thats postal damage or from the garage itself....Not your fault at all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Asad I'll be paying them once they arrive with me Bargain track coilys anyone? ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 If i took my coilovers to a garage like that and they said they are bent beyond fitting id leave haha. They have a screw loose if they are still not willing to keep them even when the problem is easy to fix. I guess some people are born stupid lol. Your getting the best deal now Russell Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Right there's three people in like for these! I'll close this now as it's resolved. Thanks for all the advice guys! ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The fact that hes willing to lose out on 150 quid seems a bit odd to me unless he bent them himself and took advantage of your good nature idrees Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 I think they must have realised that the garage was in wrong for not checking them sooner. Before this, they did threaten to legal action as one of their family members is a solicitor, I said that I was more than happy to let them go ahead with this because there was no way that anything would come out of it. Sorted now though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dan_91 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Why did said person take so long so long to make you aware, the idea of signing for a package is to check that they are in good condition. If there not and they still sign for it its the own fault therefor they are to blame, not you. I unferstand youve got a business to run but theres a limit to good will gestures.Personally 3 months is too long time to make a complaint yhey could have been thrown down some stairs for all your aware.Just my 2cents ;)what he said! ^^^^^^should have checked the package and condition before signing for them, you might lose one customer over this issue (i.e him ) but youve still got the rest of the uk with you because we all no how good a trader you are, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
