Tod, this is the internet, don't believe anything you read and only half of what you see
That said, I DO agree with you on this one.Comment

This is actually sad to see. My first PM in my inbox was from Andreas. He told me he has spare parts galore, and would help me in any way that he could. I sadly declined the offer because I am on the other side of the pond. It would have been very easy for me to pull a stunt like that.
Something I have learned, is that you do not steal anything for your bike or kit. It's the fastest way to get into an accident. You pay your dues and if you cannot afford it, make some form of arrangement or give back the stuff.
To the person who has the package. We are all here trying to get the best for our bikes. We only have a few people in the world that can supply us with these parts. Andreas trusted you and sent you the package, costing him time, effort and postage fees. If you cannot afford the stuff you received, lift your butt, wrap the package again, pay the postage fees and send it back to Andreas. Don't spoil the good relationship we have with the few suppliers by doing this to all of us.
I would love to have a set of side covers to, since the top slots on my covers is broken. But I cannot afford R1300 for a set of covers. If you are in the same boat as I am, then just return the package and wait until you have the bucks to buy it.
Andreas, hope you get your money or your package back. Sorry for the few non-biker that seem to hide amongst us.

Again...
Assumptions that the guy got the parts when you don't have a clue what the story may be.
It kills me how fast you guys convict someone..
That little thing about Innocent until proven guilty? Naw.. we don't worry about that chit here... Get a rope!

Well Andreas,
It looks like you got shafted this time.This story sounds very familiar.This is the kind of the MO that we have been running into in our business lately.People call and are desprate for service then don't pay.My job desciption is "electonic technician"but I'm becoming a collection agent.I hope this member man's up and pays the bill or sends the parts back.I also hope nothing bad has happened to him/her so they can't contact you.But my guess is you tried everything else before you posted this thread.You know the saying no good deed goes unpunished.

His message sounded like a last chance to make it right.
If I remember correctly he's in Law Enforcement isn't he?

todd is right but we are all just posting what we feel we would do in the end. but at the same time we are being made to look like a bunch of people who do not want to know other side of story or care. none of us are pronoucing the person guilty at all. we are all just as concerned. i had to chose my words well or i know the next post would be one of someone saying i am condeming the person more.1980 xs1100 sg.Comment

I agree wholeheartedly. IF they are guilty... hang them out in the breeze here in the forum so nobody else deals with a loser like that. BUT... there's not enough evidence to support that Andreas has been screwed over. It hasn't even been enough to convince HIM... or it wouldn't have been posted as a GENTLE reminder.
LMAO.. Are you serious? You need to go back and read I guess... but let me help you out a bit.none of us are pronoucing the person guilty at all.
So, Mr '79 sidecovers, pay up, you cheapskate!With regards to the ripoff Man alive "how do some people sleep at night"It's a damn shame when people who are not honest takes advantage of those who are.the powers that be at Channel Eleven should ban him/herplease pay the man, that is just shady not to, dude.i cannot see why u want to screw a guy like him.But notice that he's nice enough and hasn't revealed who the scumbag is.
Naw... not a single person has pronounced guilt at all. Not a SINGLE posting I listed is preceded with a "If indeed this guy is guilty..."
You are correct in that people are posting what they feel. My argument has been that they don't have any evidence to support these feelings.

Alright Tod, we are sorry, now just talk to andreas and and get this resolved will ya!!
Legal Disclaimer...(Note...this is intended as a joke, not to TRULY insinuate any such thing of TRBig/Tod.)
Honestly, I do see Tod's point. If perhaps it turns out this were one of the LONG term members here, that perhaps is older and suffered a heart attack or the like. Laying in a hospital bed and no one he knows even knew about his deal with Andreas or perhaps even this site, hmmmm...how would that work its self out?
JAT
And yes, there is a full blue moon tonight!!!
