Bought a reel off Norm B from the other site and it turned up today

He described it as VGC

It wasn't, I am awaiting his reply

TBH, I would not have sold that Tat ........... I would have binned it ..............

The Torium is well known for its corrosion properties ! ...................but it was a strong reel in its day ..............

So pleased you got your money back Johny.

Maybe a bit of Peer pressure on the other site helped after all.  Maybe admins gave Norm an exit out, pay up and we'll remove the post type thing.  Fair play to them if they did and fair play to the members over there that posted their disdain

It seems that the main mod had a word, don't know what happened to the seller, but the thread was deleted etc

I will post the reel back if I am paid postage or the seller sends a courier to pick it up, I won't be out of pocket

 

Oh and Andy, modman sent this message

Oh and by the way, please tell Andy that I am actually the administrator for the site and can change anything and everything.
Create forums and everything.
I thought his post was amusing, and shows just how little he actually knows.

That is really good news that you were backed by the mod team over there.  Also good news that their team has a known admin rather than a faceless remote person administering diktat from afar, far better done locally, maybe.

Also shows for whatever reason they have spies or are incognito on here

Good news regards the reel, for whatever reason it got resolved, it was, which is the main thing.

Maybe that I commented on it over there he has drawn the link, or maybe he does have "spies" here, who cares...... They had what we have here and blew it, simple as......

The seller wants me to pay postage 😄 I explained that I wasn't prepared to and that I would give it to a courier if he arranges it, or he can pay postage

What a tosser of a bloke

 

That does feel a bit cheeky! In effect he wants to charge you for mis-selling you an item. 🤷‍♂️

You're holding all the cards now, you have the cash and the reel, you can dictate how its going to work to him now, don't forget to get any payments sent as gift or bank transfer, don't want him claiming it back, and make sure you get either a receipt from arranged courier, or send it tracked so you can prove he got it....

Not just the mods Pete. As an avid reader of your posts, they do occasionally deny any translation!!! - but we all still love you - so keep posting. Geoff. WINK.

Sent the reel back yesterday, I paid the postage  (£4.70) and he said he would pay when it was received but only if it was in the same condition as when he sent it to me

Fuck sake, the only way it would be any worse was if I threw it down the road 🤣

I paid the postage to see if he would honour his word and reimburse me, I will have a bit of fun if he doesn't and probably get banned in the process

How could he possibly tell whether it was any worse? I mean, seriously?!

Whatever happens, you dodged a bullet with that one and if you only end up out of pocket by £4.70 that's still a result instead of being stuck with the reel and down £75 or whatever.
