1st step, put your intentions in writing (send signed for)...


cc. bloke in scotland

Dear Bloke in Ireland,

This letter is to notify you of the failure to refund or deliver the <insert full description engine> I bought off the Internet <site> (date).

If I do not receive the money owed to me in the next seven days I intend to start a claim in the Small Claims Court.

Part of the Small Claims procedure is to notify you in writing of my intentions. I am seeking payment of £how much you paid plus £fuel costs, totaling £total.



Yours Faithfully

Mark M

i dont think naming on the internet is the right thing to do at this stage

[Aaron P.]

Mark

You know my thoughts, and some of the comments on here are worth persuing.

I agree with Neil, send him a Recorded Letter stating what you want and what you will do if he doesn't resolve the situation.

If this doesn't work then start the Small Claims Process through the Sheriff (if you are claiming in Scotland) or Court Service (if you are claiming in N. Ireland)

DO NOT Name him on here yet as this may prejudice your case down the line.

I'm only a call away if you want to talk

Further clarification !

The seller lives in Ireland

The seller just happens to work for a Garage/Main Dealer in Ireland (this garage is not connected to this sale but great work Brian and having people who know seller is a long way towards Marks battle to get his money back)

The RS Specialist/Garage in scotland is the "middle man" in this affair

[richard wilson]

after our chat on the fone mark last week i have tried to get this lad nailed down but no luck yet but dont worry mate we havent gave up on it.

[Aaron P.]

dave would not easier for you to put a disclaimer at the top of this tread ......or something to the fact about the seller & not the garage as it is not involved.....

hope you get it sorted Mark

what happened to the guy with the capri from the garage in scotland? on another note as his situation was similar in a round about way

[trialscort]

Pleased to see that the guys in N.I. are on the case. The fecker probably thinks he's safe over the water.

[LOUIE]

cant say i blame the fella in scotland for this in all honesty sounds like hes been screwed over as well. theres some right pricks out there around the scene at the moment, what happend to a little honesty!!!

[paul andrews]

i know the seller of the engine is not the garage owner but is it the same place as the capri fella?hope this gets sorted mark ****ing hate people getting rapped for this type of shit.

C.A.B is a waste of time, over run with people who are in financial trouble. Did you pay cash or credit card?

Personally, I'd pay for some flights for me and a few mates to Ireland.
