Any trader who threatens to shut this site down is attacking EVERY member here and trying to deny us ALL the ability to communicate, obtain information, socialise (?) etc, etc...
That being the case, I think that to alienate thousands of performance car owners in this fashion is juvinile and petty, especially if action was not taken to rectify the situation amicably (we ARE a high-spending customer base after all) prior to threatening the legal action..
There are a few old sayings that apply here
"It takes months to get a good customer, but only seconds to lose one".....
"A satisfied customer will tell approximately three people. A dissatisfied customer will tell ten people!....work the math out for yourselves traders!...
"Never shit on your own doorstep, as the smell will linger forever"....
