Phil Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) Just sticking this up on the forum. Sold forged pistons to Bussey recently, no sign of them at his end yet starting to get worried. i went with royal mail parcel 1st class. its not tracked So ive let the side down in that sense, fell i could have done more with the choice of shipment. I have never had an issue with royal mail before, but that doesnt matter much when something is missing. Anyways, just posting up though Bussey hasnt been giving me grief about it or anything, just an effort to be transparent etc etc. Please feel free to NOT throw your opinion around here if its going to be disruptive. firstly we are hoping that the parcel arrives or we get some sort of claim from RM.secondly im not going anywhere so my name on TGTT/UKSO matters to me.bussey has been around for a brave while too and bottom line we both want our cars sorted and back together ASAP.right spanner in the works right here. will keep the community updated (hopefully with good news) Phil Edited November 25, 2014 by Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 not telling you how to suck eggs phil but it costs 70p to add tracking to a parcel via royal mail Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 When did you send them? Unfortunately you'll only get £20 + the cost of shipping back from Royal Mail, so let's really hope they find it. They will make you wait 15 working days / 3 weeks before opening a claim. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 not telling you how to suck eggs phil but it costs 70p to add tracking to a parcel via royal mail i wasnt told this or i would have paid it of course. Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
glanzatd04l220 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 i dont use royal mail anymore cause they lost a £300 rc heli i sold and all they sent me was a book of stamps. also paypal refunded the buyer his £300 back, so i lost a £300 rc heli and in return got a book of stamps for it. kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I had the same issue sending wiseco forged pistons and forged pauter rods to ireland to a well known member. They never arrived he said put a claim in I can almost garuntee they find them. Sure enough they were found and sent back swiftly to me to repostThey told me sending to ireland would be via air mail and tracking is not an option. I spent £25 posting them as I felt that was extreme and they were still only covered for £100. I was very much in the same boat as yourself, get the claim form in and fingers crossed. Apparently between uk and ireland things get lost a LOT and just end up in a warehouse unless theres a return address Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Apparently between uk and ireland things get lost a LOT and just end up in a warehouse unless theres a return address That's correct, and that's the main reason we use couriers to send valuable to Ireland.

Luke.R Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Sold a Jam Ecu about 6 years ago, didn't have it Tracked or insured, and it never arrived, and I had to give the £500 back, So I know where your coming from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 have to wait another 4 days (15 in total) before i can bring this to royal mails attention. hopefully they then find it. Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza-Ben Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Made a claim to royal mail when a iphone went missing I sent, they kept saying there searching for it and it was apparently in Ireland but never sent it to Ireland, any way after I kept complaining it suddenly turned back up at mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dangeestarlet Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Not accusing bussey or anything but I would never send it not tracked , he could of recieved it and said he didn't so he could have a refund and free parts , there's no way of proving he recieved the part , just my 2p and not accusing anyone it's just an example that's all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
glanzadude Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Funny you say that I sent a member a packet last Monday from Ireland to ukdidn't track it ( yes I am a ass ) Friday he didn't have it so rang an post he said there is a back log so thank god he got the part yesterday Tuesday 7 days later Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bussey Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Fingers crossed it's a back log then, like said above I'm not accusing phil of anything at all, it just sucks because now my engine builds having to be delayed. I had this exact same problem last time I bought parts from Ireland Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had this exact same problem last time I bought parts from Ireland Yup we are on the same page mate, thats the main thing for now. we have four days where there is nothing we can do other than hope! and then if it comes to it, ill register the claim in 4days time and then hopefully (as per others experiences) they manage to locate it quickly. very sorry, and appreciate that this is total mess up of your plans.

Phil Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) Well update 10.11.14 Understandably we have moved from dispute to claim. Ive read paypals terms and conditions and its the sellers responsibility to get the product to the buyer.# so i no doubt bussey will be issued with a refund (paypal have already taken the money from my account) Im hopefully that bussey gets the money back. Or the pistons appear. Phil Edited November 10, 2014 by Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) FINAL CONCLUSION Well no pistons have appeared with bussey as far as im aware. and the money has been taken from my account by paypal to refund him in full. So just to close this matter out in suitable fashion, It certainly wasnt a pleasureable experience for either of us. Bussey has had a big delay in his build and ive lost a set of forged pistons Tracked and signed for in the future for me Phil Edited November 25, 2014 by Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
