Post OT-Don't screw over british car owners!

From my british car web board: see what happens when a guy orders and pays for a part and the parts dealer fails to deliver!

Just as I was reading this post I got a call from the guy I purchased my Ducktail from. He was just letting me know he recieved my check and was shipping it today. I guess I have been blessed with only dealing with good honest people. (knock on wood) It's too bad crap like this happens, it makes everyone else leary.

First rule of the internet: whenever you see anything that's so cool it'll get millions of hits--or so controversial it will offend people--make a copy quick!

Nah. censorship is rare on that site. The subject was just archived.

Guys, keep in mind that when Kurt first posted this it was back in Aug 2001. Things change.

You bumped a four year old pointless thread, to make a joke? if I tell those British car guys you did that, they'll mail bomb you.

Rally, what can I say, the kids and wife went to bed early, TV was lame, didn't feel like reading/writing any more, got the crazy hair to see what the first thread was and then thought what the heck... Kurt V could use a lil claim to fame.

Just finished reading the thread where you say you only sleep 3-4 hours a night. So this is what you do with all those extra hours awake?
