Thread: Cancel my order Ace

Thats a bit unfair jason, the jumper will get here, you wont be out of pocket, the jumpers have been made they are just waiting to be embroided, and when you get the jumper you will be glad you waited, and further more you will be able to wear it every winter, not just this year, a canterbury jumper is a worthwhile investment and $76 is a bloody good price to pay, try and get one in a shop for less than $90 and it wont have AULRO on it.

Sorry I cant, and wont cancel orders as i did this for you guys, if i cancel orders then i am out of pocket for the cost of that jumper which cant be sold on because each one bar a couple have the persons name across the back.

I have been on to canterbury everyday and was assured that the jumpers were to be delivered to the warehouse in sydney last friday and had to be embroided, which i told everyone.

There hasnt been a lack of communication at all, when i find something out i tell you how the hell can i tell people something i dont know myself. I to have ordered a jumper, for both myself and stacey so i am waiting for 2 jumpers which i really wanted for my holiday.

The jumpers will get here, and will be here with plenty of winter left, we arent even a third of the way through.

The service i have received from canterbury in the past has been second to none, its just unfortnunate that it happens this year when i do it for you guys.

I appologise for the delay but its not really something i can control i will again contact them today and ask when the hell they will be delivered, as like the rest of you i am ****ed off to. Matt

Ace you made comment in a previous post that you hadn't paid any money for our jumpers:

I think ordering them before the easter weakend made the order longer. They say 6-8 weeks but its closer to 8 weeks and having the order put in before easter meant that is didnt get processed until after the long weekend which has made it closer to 9 weeks. So sorry guys but its out of my hands. I will post a thread on the forum when they have been distributed so you all know when to expect them, everyones will be posted on the same day.

I havent spent the money either its in my account awaiting payment instructions, i am holding onto the money as long as possible so i have some leverage should the order take longer. Matt

So based on your PM and various posts the payment has been made to Canterbury despite still not recieving the goods. Even though your statement above said your intended to hold onto our money.

Regardless of everyone's reluctancy to call this forum a club it still operates very closely as one. IMHO like a club we are open to be taken advantage of. For example what's stopping someone from suggesting an idea which sounds great and everyone wants, it wouldn't take long to have the dollars build up before anyone even thought there was something wrong. Don't believe me go have a chat to a few local footy clubs, nearly everyone of them has had problems with those in power dipping into the till at some stage.

Don't get me wrong Matt this is not a personal attack on you or your character. But a wakeup call for all of us.

The system of giving just one person the authority to purchase on our behalf leaves us open to fruad. IMHO I think that any future collective purchases needs more the one person, In order to confirm or deny any issues. I also belive that any corrospondence relating to any orders placed should be substantiated, Conformation of the order being placed and paid for atleast.

Some of you guys have seen this thread as a personal attack on Matt and have seen fit to defend him by attacking me all good and well. Yes I may have agreed to complete certain tasks in the past, for example the photo CD. I admit I have not completed this task due to both running my fledgling bussiness and lossing the software needed to complete it and yes it has been a while since I made mention of it. But I never requested a large sum of cash for the work (for that matter any cash)nor did I ask for any monies for postage and packaging. I guess that just makes me busy and last time I checked being too busy isn't a crime.

My suggestion to resolve this matter is Matt needs some help in getting our jumpers or atleast someone else to substantiate what is happening.

I am more then happy to help out if that is what's needed.
