Some sellers do make me laugh.

Post08 Jan 2014, 22:28

This seller has two Pulsar modules for sale but is unable to test them. Click on other items for sale and they are selling two working LED's. If they know how to put batteries in watches, why can't they test these modules.
So many unscrupulous cowboy sellers out there.

I wonder who that could be?

On a different note, does anybody remember the name of the dog on 'His masters Voice' record labels?


thanks

I just googled the name of the dog on the masters voice it's called Nipper. I have no words how blatant people deceive.

Your not testing any modules in your watches. So how did you test the other two working LED's you have for sale ?

Looking forward to this answer ....

What am I trying to do ?
Well there you go forum members. Another great Nipper reply. I will tell you how you test the modules. Take the case back off your Pulsar you have for sale, place two batteries in the modules you are selling, put case back on module and see if they work. Easy, but we know you know how to do that. Amazing how your family uncover Pulsar modules and send them to you to sell.

No the Facebook message you sent to me over Christmas didn't work where you said I hope I choke in a turkey bone.

You just couldn't make this stuff up. I'm sure members reading this are falling about laughing.

So to get this straight, a family member sent you two Pulsar modules that you said in the auction you found it your drawer, and you can't be bother to take the case back off your working Pulsar to test them as you don't like tinkering with your watches.
This is jackanory at its best. I think this is enough now, Hanno please hit the delete switch.

I'm sure if he is banned he wont change his ways, it will just keep his illicit ways off this forum. I see this forum as a place where collectors can discus our much loved hobby, and not a place where cowboys rip people off under our noses, and make descriptions up just to try and sell a watch. To me this is bad practise.

He never upsets me, and true i do like to poke a bit of fun at the idiot. But when he is blatantly lying, conning and cheating i don't find it fun when that person is a member of this forum.

Maybe im to honest and shouldn't worry about what he does to people.... Is it just me ?

Jagmad is not another account for Nipper is it ? the amen and time for bed my children are lines that have been used by him. Or is it a relative that sent him the modules up ?

Well it never has in the past :cry:
He's been banned several times in the past and he just re-joins under a new user-name. Identifying his new alias is so easy, it's laughable, but he seems to be allowed to carry on regardless.
But we have new management now, so hopefully that wouldn't be allowed to happen again :scratch:

To right he (most probably) won't, but if you ban him he won't have any avenue to reply that's the only diverence. :lol: POKE
Stop the discussion and you have no way of making things better in the long run. I say ban someone for being very abusive
or slandering someone but not because they are a bit dodgy with their selling practices or spelling/grammar. POKE again
Or because some members find his ways offensive. His being a member is no reflection on you, I or any other member here.
Personally I think his ways are just laughable and while we talk about him here and he has the right to reply, anyone who
uses this forum will be aware of his ways and can make an informed decision cos they can see both sides of the coin.
As for those who don't? Well my attitude is that there's a lot worse out there than him like it's always sale time at DFS.
If you get ripped off it's because you didn't do your homework well enough first. Like me when I bought my first Bulova LED.
It's the one in my avatar.
Bet you can't guess who sold it to me. M:)W:)M



He never upsets me, and true i do like to poke a bit of fun at the idiot. But when he is blatantly lying, conning and cheating i don't find it fun when that person is a member of this forum.

"But when he is blatantly lying, conning and cheating" You get upset right? (But he never upsets you honest) POKE ;-)

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.... If you told someone about the hammered P3 for instance
and they still wanted it (bad enough) they would still buy it. Probably citing you as just someone who has a grudge, who thinks that
anyone on here that doesn't want him banned or strung up by his goolies is either him under another name or a family member.

I'm trying to lead you to the water of my way of thinking....I'll bet a pound to a pinch of shit your not thirsty?
Funny neither is he. Perhaps your more alike than you think? :no: ;-)

Jagmad is not another account for Nipper is it ? the amen and time for bed my children are lines that have been used by him. Or is it a relative that sent him the modules up ?


May I suggest you do your homework properly and check out some of my previous posts before you make assumptions to fit your feelings. POKE ;-) ;-)
One of the posts I have had removed was a poke at Gary and his "boxes are for display only" listings which I thought was quite amusing.
I was told it was removed because I would be causing this kind of reaction and it was not needed. Maybe this will go some way to explaining why I
started that post. I picked that particular bad habit of his cos it's a small one, and he is far from the only one on Ebay who does it.
It was my way of saying stop loading the gun with bullets and handing it to him to shoot. Keep on trying to help him to see there is a better way.
If he starts to see that the majority on here are really good eggs, and the warm feelings he could gain from having our respect for listening
and changing his "I've made a lot of money from this game" attitude, may just out way any feelings from the money made?
I like to think that's what Mr Mandela would have said. NO? Oh... alright then I'm wrong again Ban him... M:)W:)M

Good post Jagmad. I don't favor banning people even if they brag a lot or appear to be scoundrels. This forum soon pulls people like that up on their ways. Abuse is about all that needs reining in.

And.... it's great reading the flame wars :grin1:

I too bought my first led from a seller up in Scotland, paying far too much lol. C'est la vie.

I didn't do my homework on you Jagmad, as you say, "If you get ripped off it's because you didn't do your homework well enough first" :grin1:
Then again i guessed you wasn't Nipper. I was as you say just poking a bit of fun and knew you wouldn't rise to it :amen:

And yes he has been very abusive to me in a hit and run facebook comment, and eBay messages. If i posted them up here you would probably want to string him up yourself. I understand it wasn't on here, so that fine.

Off course him being a member on here is no reflection on me, but i feel its a reflection on the quality of this board, so if i can make aware his malpractices to those who have not done their homework i will. Sure there are allot worse out there.... then again not many. But id prefer him not be on here so i don't have to waste my time reading the rubbish he comes out with. Then again he has about 10 bogus eBay accounts, so would come back again as Nipper5 thinking we wouldn't spot it.

If i was anything like Nipper i would probably string myself up by the goolies, ive never deceived or made up descriptions. I know i get precious thinking this forum is for collectors like me who have collected and love LED watches. But your right we should let some bad eggs run riot and have a laugh, at least the people getting stung wont be us.
I've lost count how many warnings he has had, but he comes straight back with the same old BS. I was just getting a bit tired of it but it seems people don't mind, so ill keep me gob shut from now on. :amen: and have a fruitful life i say :grin1:

I can guess who sold you your first watch in your avatar.... Nipper, as its in the wrong box M:)W:)M
