Guest newcomer Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 Buyer Beware. I am a beginner in this game and I have found all the fanciers I have dealt with in the past to be honest men who have tried to help me. When I have purchased birds or sent for things As a newbie I thought it wise to purchase some DVD,s to gain information and to learn. As you will understand pigeon racing is such a diverse subject. Has anyone heard of Eddy Bateman from Newcastle, I can supply his address and phone number, ( sadly to far away to travel ),he has been on various pigeon sites advertising DVD,s. I have sent my money after contacting him when things seem to be above board, but once my cheque for £ 50 had been cashed there was no response to the E – mails and now from telephone calls that I have placed. I noticed he is again advertising on another site and mail shooting members of different sites with his advert, so I am posting this in the hope he does not make a fool out of someone else and leave them without their order and monies.
THE FIFER Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 get the sites he is Advertising on m8,to deal with this, if he is on this site and using the message service to sell pm me his name,

Hi Mate.Sorry to hear that mate.I too received an email sometime ago regarding DVD's for sale from an Eddie Bateman.(last summer)I was not interested in DVD's at the time but from what you say i believe this guy is looking at the forums for new starters or guys not so clued up on the game and sending them these mails just trying his luck.I am sure i was sent one as well via my pm box on the pigeon chat site.I will have a look for you.These people are the dreg's and need the full treatment when found out. All the best. DAVID
THE FIFER Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 He sends all the members emails or pm's offering them dvd's, he's banned off chat. and he is not on here, its up to members to report to admin if they are getting messages from anyone re advertising anything,

Guest newcomer Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 he is still selling ? on pigeonsales ! calls his self hot dog eddy, i asked about a couple of dvds and got loads of emails from him trying to push em, smelt a rat so tipped him b****x Other members have said it, its a gutter when this happens, I dealt in all good faith, I just dont want any one else to have to feel this. He has had nearly a month to sort it out, and when I first contacted him by phone over the matter he seemed suprised but said he knew my name instantly. But for all this other calls have not been answered or other E - mails I have sent him.
THE FIFER Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 Why not give Trading Standards a call? why does pigeon sales allow him,
