    Thumbs up Mr B Hodgkinson ...

    Apologies, I can't remember your user name and, I no longer have our PMs

    I purchased a box of .177 Crosman Premier pellets from you in January - when they never arrived, you were very quick to give me a full refund.

    They arrived yesterday - the posting date on the parcel is 3/1/17 - they were so well wrapped that they survived 9 months at the mercy of Royal Mail

    So, can you get in touch please - I owe you some money

    Atb

    All of the above.

    That's good of you. There are some honest people around. It makes a change from reading about people being scammed.

    I got the second one though. And I won my case too .

    See here for what I think was the original thread.

    I'm not surprised you're doing the right thing - most BBS members would do the same. Its only a very small minority, particularly in NA, that give the place the impression that its full of tossers.
    Happy Shooting!! Paul.

    IT HAPPENS. Years ago i sold a camera to a guy in Scotland. Over £1,000 worth. It was insured and did not arrive. I gave the guy his money back and a couple of months later got the insurance from post office.
    Nearly a year later the guy recd the camera in perfect condition.
    A win win all round. They must have little/big room where they occasionally toss stuff.
    When I die don't let my wife sell my guns for what she thinks I gave for them!!!

    Thank you for the kind words chaps - to be fair, from what I've seen of this sport and this forum, there's some strong opinions and, some do like a good ol' ding dong but 99.9% are fair and honourable to deal with.

    I've met some cracking blokes from here so far - long may it continue.

    All of the above.

    Lol...
    Got to hold my hands-up...it's me!
    It works both ways Jon, even though they've now arrived, you didn't have to say anything about it, just goes to show that you are an honest buyer. Pleasure doing business with you mate.
    Another good thing is - My standard of packaging, stood up to the journey!
