I've spoken to Luke quite a few times on here and he seemed ok, however Shaid's first post doesn't exactly give Sonic the benefit of the doubt. Sending him here there and everywhere looking for a Gravel Express that isn't there, deliveries not turning up, phones being switched off, PM's ignored, but yet he's still buying (or offering to buy) stuff on here 
.
.It doesn't look good agreed mate but,
1. Some just like to jump on a bandwagon as is always the case
2. We only know what's been posted on here.
As said I'm on the fence with this one and not taking sides as I've had good dealings with Luke and Shaid seems a good bloke too (without meeting him).

For what it is worth I purchased and paid straight away for some brakes/disc's etc..I didn't get them on Monday,a couple of people have sent me a pm when they saw I had purchased these,I don't think I have anything to worry about,ok they didn't turn up and I am sure they will today,fingers crossed.

Shaid you have been scammed, for most people they would be mortified that they had been paid for an item and not been able to deliver on time, I would not be able to sleep thinking I came across as some kind of thief or scammer, this guy is a blagger and bull****ter and I will be amazed if you get your money back with out forcing the issue.

Christ Shaid, didn't realise this was going on, I hope it gets sorted out with minimal fuss for you.
I must admit, Sonic's come across as a bit of a strange character to me... seems very boastful about the amount of money he has/how good his car is etc with no real proof to back the claims up.
I also found it weird that he appeared on the Legacy club too... hopefully not just to bait in someone like yourself. Perhaps it's worth posting this in there too just to warn that lot.

I take it he has been banned or suspended. But couldn't he just make another account.

Bought one set of 4 pots and they looked like a 100 year old boat anchor, after derusting, the pistons (6 of 8) refused to come out, so I just binned them.
Bought some later off Mattybr5 and they were damn near perfect.
Hope you get it sorted Shaid.

He's been on today at half 12. I think it's probably safe to say if there was something up in his private life he'd have come clean by now... but, for the sake of the fact that Admin are obviously looking into things i'll save calling him a 'scammer'.
Ooops.
Ooops.

I am lucky that I have been scammed and if I was it would only be for small amounts, the most I have spent on here was £250 on a vf35 and the seller had good history.

I would speculate either he owes his bank money so can't use his account, or has previous convictions for fraud so is not allowed a bank account. I think you are all going to be out of luck. I suggest going round his house asap and not leaving untill you have your cash but there is a good chance that he does not have it, you cannot take what he doesn't have.
