So sorry to hear that John.  :(

As Mrs Drillin often reminds me. "They're not all as soft as you"........

Sorry to here this, it's a very difficult one John. Can't name and shame as it drags the forum down yet you want to protect other members from a similar fate.

I had a vaguely similar thing with a member. He was advertising wanting an item. I responded but told him in my opinion the one I had hadn't been particularly well made. He said he'd been offered another one at a certain price and what did I want for it. Somewhat less than the other one said I. Then he said he'd buy both and put the one that proved to be worse on eBay. OK I sold it, didn't charge him postage and he had the cheek to complain the one he got from me wasn't very well made and could he have a discount  :bang: :bang: :bang:

Needless to say I told him to sling his hook !

One can only hope that the chap you had issues with reads this post and learns by his mistake. I genuinely try to treat people as I would like to be treated myself, and 99% of the population responds . . .  then there's the 1%  :hammer:

Bad luck John, the situation shows a lack of integrity on the part of someone who has been done a favour, and has not returned it.
I usually find that if I borrow anything I have to fix it before I can use it, and if I lend anything I have to fix it when I get it back! Lately I have begun to suspect that people offer to lend me things they know need fixing ;-)
