stantheman Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 how do we go on for getting the birds? i am happy to get mine collected from derby in the week sometime phillips as you can see from the original quote its plain to see i replied and was trying to make arrangements for collection on the lots i won, please explain your reasons for putting them up for resale as i am not happy about the way this has been handled. i have purchased pigeons off this site before no problems ask members such as fletchlives i collected birds myself and paid cash, what is your problem? A not very happy bidder
Guest Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 could members plz reply by 10pm thankyou jason :-/
stantheman Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 whitenight my point is that i did reply and if you go back through the posts phillipps has posted who won what and the post above that is mine asking how to arrange collection so please explain how i have not replied, or am i missing something? I bid fairly and confirmed that i was making arrangements to collect so why have the birds been put up for sale again?

stantheman Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 thats my point exactly its on this site in the post above his, confirming that i was making arrangements to collect the birds, he did not reply to that post however. also we cannot be on this site 24 -7 can we? but as far as i am concerned i bid fairly and had every intention in paying for and collecting them as indicated by my original post asking how to collect them. If its going to cause problems then forget it and i will donate the money that it was going to cost me to a suitable charity if anyone nominates a worthy cause i will send them a cheque. I will not bid on pigeons again on this site. I repeat what i said earlier ask members on here if i have bid for something i have paid for it, i dont post on here a lot but this incident has wound me up
Guest numpty01 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 on 31 jase said pm by 10 please if he recaived no pm confirming bids apart from mine gooners lenwendebobs i think he he left wondering why im sorry stantheman to critasise and then say you wont buy again on site is not fair to jase ??please read the bids and then look who is actually buying in genuine capacity then you will understand why these birds were put back up if youer bids are gen then surely they still are i can read the same as you can my bids are on all other birds only due to idiots that come on and are now gone
pigeonpete Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 o.k have just spent 30 mins reading through the whole thread, and it does seem a bit confusing to me in places, with crossed over posts/bids etc, so i think this is just a case of communication breakdown/missed reading of posts i hope this can be sorted out amicably, without this ending up as a problem, If either party has any problems or concerns please private message me and i will look into straight away. Thanks
stantheman Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 pete i will leave it for you to sort out as i previously posted i am happy to pay for birds and collect them i can see its got confusing and messy, my offer to charity still stands as well if i dont get the birds, maybe for the future some clear rules,guidelines can be put in place for buyers and sellers for example do same as ebay where buyers and sellers are given a rating or even charge a nominal fee to become a buyer-seller because it looks like the few are ruining it for the genuine pigeon men on the site. I apologise if I have upset anyone and maybe i jumped the gun so will now let the matter go, and what will be will be yours in sport stan

Guest Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 More work for Admin I know, but as sellers have to be approved, I think buyers should also be approved, and a minimum of 3 months membership of this site should be in place before anyone can buy birds. Numpty you are quite right, 2 bidders bid for birds and then questioned their bids with the seller, and then pulled out and disappeared into the ether. In all fairness to Phillips, he actually pm'd me to ask me to check the thread as one person had questioned his bid. This I done and Phillips was right a bid was made. All bidders were also asked to confirm bids by pm by 10pm, obviously there has been a mix up. All I can say is Jason Phillips is a fair man and I am sure he will sort this out amicably with the buyers.
Guest numpty01 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 :'( :'( :'( :'( Will look at the highlighted suggestion and discuss it - Its a good idea in principle but dont think it could be implemented succesfully as its not just the new people on the site that let people down in sales. As i say though will certainly look at it carefully and see where we can go - I do feel by doing this though we would find new members making offers to the seller via PM and more lots being withdrawn from general sale. :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
stantheman Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 As previously posted i now accept that there has been a mix up and have apologised if i have caused any hassle i have no axe to grind with anyone and also acknowledge that jason is an honest and fair bloke, measures need putting in place to stop this happening again
pigeonpete Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 Thanks Stan, I have sent jason a message. And im sure when he comes online all will be resolved. Thanks for your patience.
Guest numpty01 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 better if you dont mention lot 6 tho or he might change his mind ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
phillips Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Posted June 3, 2009 just going through the sale list and also read the thread ive no doubts that stan has placed bids for the birds on lot 2 10 pounds lot 3 10 pounds and won these birds stan you also made a bid on lot 9 for 10 pounds but was outbid on this lot ive heard nothing from the member regarding lot 9 so do you still want lot 9 too ? sorry for any confusion but im just as confused myself with all this i do feel that what bob says should be put into place regarding approved buyers thankyou jason
fletch Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 thats my point exactly its on this site in the post above his, confirming that i was making arrangements to collect the birds, he did not reply to that post however. also we cannot be on this site 24 -7 can we? but as far as i am concerned i bid fairly and had every intention in paying for and collecting them as indicated by my original post asking how to collect them.

I repeat what i said earlier ask members on here if i have bid for something i have paid for it, i dont post on here a lot but this incident has wound me up this guy has bought of us and was an excellent buyer and a true gentleman i would reccomend him..
Guest numpty01 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 as candleford lofts has just commented on free birds perhaps he wil clear up misunderstanding re others
phillips Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Posted June 3, 2009 cheers fletch bye no means did i ever think he wasnt
Guest 67ghirl Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 Just a suggestion re Bidders - Perhaps bids should not stand until the seller has been contacted with a 'real name' ie not screen name and a contact number. This could easily be done by PM and I for one would not mind giving this information if I was genuine about purchasing! As I say only a suggestion.
Guest canfordlofts Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 yeah i have just pm you about my bids i did not want to seem like i have just left you but i have been real busy when would you like me to sort the courier out?
phillips Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Posted June 3, 2009 can you plz let me now which birds you won thanx jason
phillips Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Posted June 3, 2009 lot six 35quid correct got that chris cheers mate SOLD
