Same old, same old.

He’s ok if you get the right parts and if they aren’t faulty and if he can be bothered to send them in a reasonable time frame, but there’s too many “ifs” there for my liking.

Complete cowboy, I wouldn’t buy from him.

You’ll probably eventually get a lame excuse posted on here then radio silence. Why would he sort out someone who he already has the money off already?

Well he's done that before. There was someone on here from New Zealand who received either one spring or two different springs, and tried to contact him numerous times for a replacement. No reply.

Another guy on here from Norway received two front shocks completely incompatible with stock struts/top mounts (but sold as such). I think he did eventually get a resolution, again after being ignored for months and only after starting a thread on here.

Those two and the OP are just the overseas members that found this forum and decided to post. Likely many more that put it down to experience and gave up. Why should people have to chase and chase? Come on, it's 2019. Everyone has a mobile or tablet now with access to emails, here, facebook messenger, or plain old phone contact. Can't use the excuse of being busy.

After the whole LPG revelations, pictures of his terrible workmanship, and result of the court case, why was he not outright banned? Why was/is he allowed to post in the LPG forum on here giving advice and continuing to ply his 'services'?

Anybody else would have been long gone.

Thanks for the links Rob. Saved that whole thread for future referral.

News about this. Classicswede sent me the new damper and i'm grateful for that and in the end he did the right thing.

Still given the whole picture i cannot recommend his store for anyone and i'm sad that it had to go this way. Still cheers for him for doing the right thing.
