FS :Z4 Hardtop SOLD

[synthedup]

Iv ready the thread and see no problem. A deal fell through and another member asked if the item was still available after the original buyer said he didn't want it anymore.

Ben's not done anything wrong so I have no idea why some people are being negative towards him.

Some people just want to argue by the looks of it.

Ps. if anyone bought a hardtop on here I would be shocked if the first thing they did was not to post a photo.

I see a few problems with this - firstly we all share the same passion, hence us being on this forum. Some of the vitriol I've read is unnecessary. That said, I do not understand what gain there was to posting a picture and comment like that, after there has been an alleged issue between a buyer and the seller. Whether Terry or Brad feels they are correct, seeing the animosity it has caused should highlight the need for others to tread carefully and respectfully.

Notwithstanding of who's in the right or wrong, if I was Terry - I'd have wanted to know if someone else was offering more, in decent timing. If you were aware that £600 hadn't been agreed then I see this as being sale unaccepted. If I was Brad - whilst business is business, I'd put yourself in Terry's shoes - would you like to have been treated in the manner it is alleged you have treated him with regards to communication? And Ben - if you have got yourself a good deal, well done. But having read the issues Terry had, it may have been better to celebrate a little more subtly; and to perhaps show some decoram. This shouldn't be a free pass for others to be abusive towards him however.

I don't think people just want to argue, I'd be disappointed if that was the case. By definition of a forum, people are exchanging their views. This has to be respected foremost. Name calling is for children at a playground, constructive dialogue always prevails. It's a shame this seems to have gone amiss.

I posted the pic because I was excited about having it on my car, not to piss terry off.

I also came in here in defence of Brad. I was on the fence, having only heard Terrys side of the story until I spoke to Brad myself.

I honestly didn't think that a grown man would throw his toys out the pram the way Terry did. Scammer? No, just a guy who enquired about a product, paid cash and bought it after the previous deal fell through.

To be accused of scamming and dodgy dealings is utterly ridiculous and I feel sad that it's come to this.

This is my last comment ever:

I sincerely hope you mean "last comment ever" in relation to this thread only Terry & not to the forum in general?
