Yes, I think that needs keeping active, but may I suggest puting a start date on as well as a resolved date.  Then members get an idea of the time taken/outstanding.

Must admit, have had dealings with 5 different people regarding parts, on OOF.
Two have gone smoothly, with good communications, and a rapid exchange of money for goods.
One is is the latter stages of going the same way, (thanks Dan!! :y)
Two, unfortunately have gone the same way as Phil's.
One member, have never had a reply to a post, or a PM, the other promised to 'get back to me later in the day, as soon as they had a look'. Am still waiting three months later, despite said person selling parts now.

But, no money changed hands in the two 'non' events, and I now disregard any posts by them.  You live and learn.

Personaly, I would rather let fellow 'OOF'ers' have the cash than 'fleece-bay' but in the end, getting the parts is all it's about..

 PS   is 'pikea' the local gypo's takeway?? (tarmac & chips anyone??)  ;D ;D ;D

... of advertising that you have an Omega you are stripping for parts, yet can't be bothered to see if you have a simple part available?

Not one, but TWO members on here have 3 possibly more Omegas with 'all parts available' yet after a combination of 11 (!!) PMs and 4 weeks later neither could be bothered to answer my question if they had a particular part, apart from telling me they have been busy and will 'go have a look today'.

Its not even if its hard to find, just needs a turn of the steering wheel and a look behind the front wheel, if its ok its only held on by 2 bolts and a multi plug, so possibly 5 minutes work for an easy £15!!!

Maybe i'm expecting too much, but if you can't be bothered to look or don't want to sell it just say so rather than giving crapy excuses.  >:(

Anyway you can stick it now as i e-mailed someone breaking an Omega on e-bay Friday lunchtime, had the part listed as a B.I.N. paid for it and it arrived Saturday morning, less than 24hrs later. That is what i call decent service, shame others cannot be that helpfull!!  ::)

all i can do is apoligise phil been so busy trying to get my mv6 est running seem to have my head up my arse most of time and have started working continental shifts so trying to get me head round that !  :-[ :-[
