What just happened to the 044 thread?

[TBrown]

Rednecksawman gave me the shaft also on a small $50 deal. He was very polite about offering to make it right but he DID NOT follow through.

Anyone want his cell #? Pm me

I don't personally know OldSawNut (buyer) but he has been a member since 2007. We have to look after "our own."

I have zero tolerance for stuff like this. A broken tank/handle is not something that gets missed. Critical information was omitted, and it's hard to believe it wasn't done purposely.

If the OP has nothing to hide, he wouldn't have deleted the threads that he started pertaining to this saw. I'd like to say what I really think, but I'm going to remain civil for now...

Hear Hear! this man speaks the truth!

 

[bryanr2]

He is thinking the handle damage was done in transit... He insured it and is trying to go that route.... I am keeping out of it till I see what the outcome is..

show us the box.... if the box isn't damaged, it's hard to believe the saw was damaged inside. Post those pics you posted in that thread last night so everyone can see it.

 

[bryanr2]

Maybe there could be some sort of issue or recourse (if that's the right word) section that can't be deleted. It can list any issues or problems with any sales or buys and also what was or was not done about it. Maybe it's an impossible task but it's just a thought.

I think once a deal is in place- the thread should be "undelete-able"

To bad there isn't a option here like there was on the old AS where we could have feedback scores.

That would definitely be easier.

 

[juttree]

Is it possible to pull up a members trading post threads only, if they weren't deleted?

 

[BWS-LLC]

By the way, I have PM'd Mrs AS about the problem with Trading Post users deleting Ads, and the miscreant nature of doing so. Hopefully I'll hear back from her, SOON.

Good luck with that

I have always had goods luck with buys and trades here, but I'm nervous now. If Mrs D doesn't fix the delete a thieves thread loop hole we could pm the forums "sponsor".... that might get action.

Unfortunately in the short time I have been here there have been enough of these "situations" to warrent a "bad" seller/buyer forum. A place to air some of the info and also allow other members to research potential transactions.

On the flip, if there is a bad, we should also have a good buyer/seller forum.

 

[windthrown]

This crap reminds me of the Moody ported saw thread.

 

[Jon1212]

Good luck with that

Ross,

Just remember, I have six kids, so futility is nothing new.

thats exactly right. that to me didnt look like "new damage". I guess seeing the pics again would be good, but with the amount of filth embedded in the saw and in broken/damaged areas, it just smacks of deception. I have learned a ton in my short time hanging out here, and have only completed one transaction (which actually worked out with me getting shorted on parts...). I am of the opinion that there is no room in an honest society for liars and cheats. It would be unfortunate for the tradin post to get the rep of being a risky place to do biz. If bryanr2's spending is any indication, a lot of honest people buy and sell on here daily and they should be able to do so without needing a full resume and references for a $200 saw.

When Papaw was alive, he once told me on the porch swing, "It takes a lifetime to build a good name, and a second to destroy it." May be the most profound sentence I have ever had spoken to me. I've lived by it for over 20 years now.

Another good one I was taught by my step dad " never steal or cheat a working man because they have earned everything they have ". I sure miss him and his knowledge!
