Think my outstanding amount is in the region of £100 for almost 10 months now

I paid upfront for three paint jobs and to supply two shells.

To date I've received a single B4 shell painted, which Matt very kindly said he'd waiver the paint costs as he delivered over a week late ( it was a present for my son ) so all in all a £12 shell delivered.

As of yet despite my numerous emails I've been offered and promised a refund but i'm yet to see it.

My son and I have now jacked in the hobby as its left a bitter taste of deception, when we've sold stuff on oOple we've always ensured that the person buying is communicated with and goods delivered.

Unfortunately not all people have the same level of courtesy or manners these days and Matt appears to be one of these undesirable individuals that takes the money and runs.

Very disappointed and hoping that somewhere along the line he's dealt with, god help his business customers if this is his level of customer service

I see that Mr Coleman is still logging onto our fine forum, but I assume he's not bothering to attempt to remedy his thieving ways?
As of right now (16:55 30/09/2013) he was logged on 45 mins ago?

I can understand if this fella is just too busy, but to just ignore people and keep their cash, I just can't get my head around it.

If I was getting called a thief by numerous people on a very busy forum, I'd be devastated.

So a year goes by since I parted company with over £100 for what should have been a straight forward transaction.

1x Paint Job & Supply a AE B4 Shell for sons 6th Birthday
1x Paint Job & Supply SupaStox Shell
1x Paint Job JConcepts Blitz shell.

Thus far a B4 shell received, numerous emails passed back and forth and no apoligy, refund contact for what seems like an eternity.

I've received numerous offers of help from fellow hobbyists to sort the issue out but that means more expense for shells etc so my lad and I have packed it in, we were racing on a budget ( a very tight one at that ) and we've been taken for a ride by this individual.

Thanks for all the offers of help, but if this person can treat people like this knowing this was a father/son bonding time I hope that his little ones dont ever find themselves in this situation.

Please watch the for sale area for said B4 and a couple of HPI Blitz as we need to recover as much as possible.

I hope no one ever gets done over by him again and the forum is better off without people such as Matt.

Thanks again and have fun everyone

Dont let this bad experience ruin your enjoyment of the hobby.
in my experience fellow racers are friendly and inviting folk that are always happy to help out and to help grow the sport that we all love.
if its something that you and your lad enjoyed then stick with it and get down to your local track and meet proper people not anonymous interneters

So nearly 4-years since I last painted! Just dusted of my gear!

Not so shabby!

P.S. Sorry if I've previously pissed anyone off! Onwards and upwards!!

This thread is being locked by myself - you more than pissed people off. And i'm pretty sure you still owe people money.

Cheeky isn't the word.
