Anyone had any dealings with him? I bought something over 2 weeks ago and nothing has arrived and I'm getting no responses from my PM's.

Al is a top bloke, i also bought something and unfortunately got lost in the post  :sad1:

Money back no problem  :happy2:

He has also bought parts off me over the years

Hope this will alay your fears, he is a hard man to get hold of sometimes, give him a chance, i'm sure he will come back too you

I can vouch 100% for Al too!

If you realised what he did for a living you'd know he was no crook!  :laugh:

He's a copper apparently.

I tried to buy something from him - He seemed OK but took his sweet time in replying to PMs - Obviously not everyone is like me/some of us who spend all our time on forums lol  :grin:

Iv had the same issue over some sideskirts. To be fair he has refunded my money now though.

What happened to the side skirts?
Now I'm getting worried as I just bought the side skirts he has for sale.

I like others can vouch for him not bring dodgy. Possibly working odd shifts and he has a little one to keep him occupied now aswell

I'm sure you'll get resolution here as others vouch for him, but in fairness they are not having to wait two weeks with no response, and not for the first time either... Perhaps someone can provide the unlucky buyer with the sellers mobile number to settle this amicably.

To avoid any confusion, it is not me (BigAl). The user you want is bigal (a policeman) who registered a very similar user name after I joined. I rarely post on this forum, although I visit every day, I never sell/buy parts on forums.

Sorry mate, Didn't see this post. Had replied to your PM but not replied on here.
Parcel was collected on Tuesday, will try and find paperwork and scan a copy to  you if it helps when I can.
Have been posting a lot of items lately due to splitting the car out.

Thanks to all for backing me up too. Not out to con people out of cash, If I was then I would be doing it for a lot more cash than £50 I can assure you :D
