ivan Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 He should definitely give the proceeds to the Rik fund IMO. AND apologise to Jake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Dammit and I really wanted that too (seriously!), missed out by a few minutes. i believe i have a really good nick one of these (can send a piccy tomorrow), and would be willing to part with it. Cashflows not great, so i've yet to contribute to Rik's fund, if you want the sensor, just pay what its worth to you to the collection and i'll send it to you........

Thats very kind of you mate No need to send piccies, so long as you know it's a proven working one. Does £30 towards Rik's fund sound fair?

Havard Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 This is well out of order!! First thing should have been a PM to Jake to see if he wanted it back or not! Love the post in the "for sale" thread by Jake too...... H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 ....and I'm back. .... (slightly pissed up so forgive me a slight ramble) Well done Smarty, finding the thread in question. I used to get annoyed at some of the traders here, like PaulE and Lucifer buying up parts that were offered for a good price and then selling them on for a profit all the time, so I thought "fack it, I'll do that, but help out the good guys on here when I can and make a sensible profit with the guys I don't know." I'm sure there's a few guys on here reading this who have had stuff for cheap/free from me to back this up. As it happens I'm few quid down over all because I give stuff away too often and my bill from CityLink is averaging about £30/month. I also have a garage full of Supra shit that I think will be useful to someone someday Aaanyway, I just thought I'd have a bitch about it tonight because, TBH, I felt a bit let down. I thought the often mentioned, but not often seen, "club spirit" wasn't being upheld here and I'm pleased that so many of you agree. /moan over. The normal piss-taking will be resumed tomorrow. :D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Having fun at TOTB then Are any of you going to be in a fit state to drive tomorrow? I'm sure there's a few guys on here reading this who have had stuff for cheap/free from me to back this up. Me for one and I am extremely grateful. You saved me nearly £300 and got me back on the road after delivering the crank pulley for free. It's this sort of thing that the club is all about It's just a shame the (thankfully very few) ungrateful members let us down from time to time.
