I MISSED the part where he was banned, and I am quite shocked at the level of duplicity that he has sunken to, whereas my experience was okay. That's the part I don't understand. He was well thought of, recommended, and to me did what he said he would and supplied what was agreed upon. I am more interested in how he went from the recommended person on here to being banner for being a con man. Was it sudden, like overnight or was it a gradual worsening of character? And what was the tipping point that got him banned?

I'm not here to skew anything, I'm here because it is saddening that anyone in this community would behave in such a way, and considering that there aren't that many of us who love out Rovers and MG's, it's even more saddening. And though I did have okay dealings with him, I wouldn't purchase from him again because of this thread, for which I thank everyone who has suffered for sharing that so I know NOT to trust him.
I'm not having a dig at you, and I am the first to defend anyone's right to speak and write!
However, many people miss the severity of the issue, because of the length of the thread, and a lot of people cannot really believe what they see, especially relating to a personal OK experience, like you.

I just feel a warning should be issued against anyone behaving like this. If a business exists because of this club (to a large extent) it is implicitly endorsed unless a specific warning is issued.

So take it for what it is worth. I would most likely have done what you did, had I been in your shoes.
