Thanks for all your support fellas -I have changed my post as I had sworn -well blanked it out -but the intent was there im sorry if i have offended anybody -it wont happen again -It's ironic the party responsible for the theft are probably laughing their heads off.

Best thing you can do is find out when his birthday is and get Ron to buy him a parachute.

Regrettably, we have to avoid naming and shaming to protect the site owner from legal action.

The site can do little to protect you and I doubt that we can even bar the members unless they earn enough points in infractions.

Now I don't know if this would be wrong or right....but if someone purchased something via the forum from another member.....couldn't/ shouldn't there be a duty of care component. Moreso in the fact that if someone bought something and didn't pay.....that other members were made aware of the fact.

What if another person sold something to same person...unaware's and it resulted in the same situation. I would think at the very least they should be banned as "stealing" or non payment of goods would have to trangress any other form of reason for banning.

Absolutely name and shame.....person makes a choice to come here.....and if they do not abide by the general courtesy of making payment on goods purchased....they don't deserve to be here. Also perhaps a learning lesson.........get the $$$$ upfront or at least a decent deposit....so both parties are covered,

I've gotta agree with Stevo. Not fair to everyone else if it happens more than once

V8 ian has a good idea with the chain PM to the people you know are ok. it would be like calling your mate and saying that this guy is dodgy, can't get in trouble for that surely.

other than that track the guy down and brake his legs, can't drive your rover now can ya.

What does this community do with its rat bags?

This place is not ebay so anyone who trades here takes a risk (Buyer and Seller beware).

The "name and shame" approach is one avenue...but be careful. I had a similar experience but it turned out that the buyer was out of town for some time so couldn't use this place to communicate.
