Guys, give Flexx a chance! Not a good idea to paint him bad on someone else's say - so, as for anyone who feels they have not been treated fairly, why not PM Flexx and try and resolve things privately? Public rantings are not nice to see and it's not fair on other Forum users... We should leave public humiliation to lesser forums.

I don't think it was necessarily public "ranting" it was more of public concern.
We should have like ebay has for selling products: positive and negative feedback for public viewing.
I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who need reasons when you've got quattro?
I agree, Josh, but still some things are best dealt with between the buyer and seller. I doubt if the S2 Forum is geared up to dealing with disgruntled buyers and sellers, such things can spill over and take over entire threads. Also going the ebay route will make the Forum way too commercial.
Those who know me from other forums know that I'm the last to start a "public rant". I merely wanted to bring my experience to the attention of those on this forum. I believe it is in everyone's interest to hear about experiences (both good and bad) with vendors. I am not out to "humiliate" anyone, but Internet dealings are based on trust, something that did not exist with this particular vendor.
My experience may very well be an isolated one, but it was wrong and very unprofessional. I did try to resolve things privately but to no avail. E-mails were never returned. Once the money changed hands, that was the last I heard of him. Not even an attempt at reconcilliation. Never offered proof that the item was shipped. I have kept email records of all of my conversations with him and attempts at getting in touch with him, if anyone is interested in seeing them.
Perhaps Flexx should be the one to PM me to resolve this. I would be happy to edit and/or even remove my posts should he offer some compensation!

@ Ben: I guess I used the wrong choice of words, "public rant", and I apologise. Didn't mean to cause offence.
@ Flexx: Ben does have a point, sending PM's or emails can save a lot of grief, this is something you're gonna have to deal with if you want any sort of positive feedback. In terms of Ben editing his post after things have been resolved, you can't get more reasonable than that!
