    Well I have been a bit of an idiot, with all my mates getting quick shifters I felt left out so I have been trying to save for one for some time. Various things kept getting in the way and the money kept disappearing!
    I Saved 170 quid and was Emailing everyone on eBay for a buy now price hoping for something cheap when someone offered me one for 170 if sent payment by gift etc so I agreed (what a tit)
    He accepted my payment and left the item to run and now has feedback from the winner and ignoring my emails!

    Careful sending gifted payments guys its alot of money to me and I'm gutted :(

    Careful of ebayer - leebuysandsells

    As he may end up with more blade stuff for sale

    Im always wary of this and normally cover the charges when I do this rather then do the gift option. What a scum bag though :mad:

    Report it to the Police. It may have been unwise but it's still theft.

    If you've got his address and contact details they should at least attempt to contact him.

    Yeah- does it come with Vaseline so when you pull my pants down it won't be dry....what an absolute knob

    Mart, you never know, some grief may result in your money being returned- you got nothing to loose mate.

    I looked through PayPal and can't get details for his address but I'm sure you need to list one to open an account so may try the old bill first and see if they can get details etc from PayPal.

    If that doesn't work his email address released to the dogs :D

    Sorry to hear this, Martin. F*cking sucks when stuff like this happens but lesson learnt I guess. Hope it works out.

    Perhaps you could post the link to his eBay account so we can have a look?

    Dibs on sending him this:

    I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you pay my friend back for the quickshifter, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

    I reckon the death threat may have its own consequences mate- btw, that flows a bit too well, sure your really who you say your are and not just deep under cover? Where were you when evening Elvis died?
