Chill out mate.......... no need for that.

Relax jc84, we generally steer away from calling people names and getting quite so hot under the collar. Thanks

JC84, mate if others don't get what you're trying to express as your opinion......no big deal, move on, don't be insulting. Drew doesn't need me to defend him but in this case I find the hot collar attitude a bit off. Cheers

I find it curious that the first 6 or so pages of posts almost everyone acknowledged it was "a typo or error" and if indeed it was all they would be after as "compensation" would be money back.
The seller, who could have handled it many different ways depending on point of view offered money back and even a small gratuity or discounts on other products.
That seemed pretty fair to me and is in line with arbitration and Common Law where everyone should be "made whole", no more, no less.
Now it seems that people are determined to rip him for, what, say $100 assuming 100% markup but even if he is out $50 it isn't right in my humble opinion.
If I was the vendor i would have simple reversed the payments and left it at that then there is no dispute at all.

Finally, another thread has degenerated into some fairly off comments.

IMHO this whole issue is between the buyers and the vendor with Ebay and/or Paypal as the umpires.
Also given the events of a coupel of weeks ago, I for one would suggest it is time to get over it and for AB or Mods to lock the thread

So.....did anyone receive their light bar?

They've received some positive feedback from people who apparently received theirs.

[jc84]

Yeah, it was too far, and that comment has been removed and i apologize to nissanpatrol.com.au forum readers for that comment.
The rest still stands.

Evil, I assume I'm one of these poeple who you assume you're saying are 'determined to rip him off'
yet as i've always stated, i expect no light-bar, i do expect to have to make a claim with paypal after the time is up to get only my $42.98 back and as you say all will be whole again.

If he sends the light-bar, then it's of his own free choice, and if he sends it, then I will have purchased something for an advertised price.

How is that ripping anyone off? I'm not after extra money. I'm not after something for nothing. I haven't stolen anything.

I don't believe there would be an issue with the thread if people who had not purchased a light-bar stopped chiming in giving their own real world examples which were in no way relevant to this situation. One of which I believe was a moderator and, i would think, should know better...
If the thread had been left to the purchases of the light-bar to discuss messages received from the seller, and replies drafted as it was in the beginning, then i'm sure it wouldn't now be on page 40, most of which yes is long winded replies written by myself, but ya get that.

This thread has quiet elegantly revealed the arrogance and declining ethics of this country, makes me a sad panda...

Forum rules dictate that we aren't supposed to name-call ect, if that weren't the case I'd have some choice words to describe some of the posters in this thread, you know who you are.

Mods should have shut this thread down 25 pages ago.

[AB]

I have stayed away from this thread because I too bought one, didn't pay, the person stuffed up, moved on...

Left this open for you blokes to discuss, haven't had a chance to read most of it but seems to have gone south so if this attitude continues moving forward from now this will be closed.

[P4trol]

So..

I have tried to move discussion forward with the seller. Same patter, same excuses. They suggested that an eBay complaint would 'not be the best course'. Presumably a refund is their best course if action. Apparently they are dealing with hundreds of people wanting their bar.

[macca86]

They sold over 400 at that price
