OK, so you don't want this to be a classified ad listing?
I figured slow greg would come on here defending his pal who screwed me over to hook him up.
Floyd offered to sell me a chain guard for $149 plus shipping, plus pay pal. In that email he lectured me saying he didn't want to sell it to a parts flipper, he wanted to sell it to someone who needed the chain guard, as it was his last one. He said he had two more he was saving for his grand kids.
I told Floyd I was not a parts flipper. I told Floyd I planned on using it for a bike, since I had restored several Cats. (buying at least one guard from Slow Greg here for $200) Skipp now owns that bike. I asked FLoyd to please send a photo so I could see what I was buying. He said he had to dig it out of his barn, so it would take awhile.
A day or two later, Floyd emailed me and said he was going to sell it instead to his long time customer and friend Slow Greg. He then went on to tell me how nice of a person he heard I was from Slow Greg and mentioned some other members here. At that point, I replied that I expected it, meaning it had taken a long time to get back to me, and the deal had started smelling fishy to me.
I know I've pissed of plenty of people here. I've been called an "OldMiniBikes Douche Bag," and even had some professional posters on here write complaints about me to the "moderator," which thankfully didn't require any action on my part.
I've got a 12 year history of helping people out selling parts and bikes at reasonable prices, sending people needed parts for free, volunteering to help out in build off contests, and even doing work on bikes and engines.
Defending your long time pal Greg because he went back on his word to me to help you flip another guard isn't exactly a great posture. As far as the "hobby" if you all need to bow and scrape at someone who came on here to sell guards and slam me so be it. Integrity and honesty isn't in the realm we "mere mortals" only need reside in. I'm 61 years old, I have lived all over the world serving this nation, and I continue to serve in the form of permanent disabilities. My $149 is just as good as anyone else's, and my word is my bond.
@FloridaMiniBikes the guards he has left are the ones
Slow Greg is selling for $75 on Ebay. I'll move this thread out of the Classsifieds now since once again it has turned into a bitchfest back slapping example of why most of the members who were worth a shit left this place long ago.
@Hent count me among them.
