Understand that Chris was very active in every thread but he was very efficient with pm's and answering questions. I do want to support the poor chap on here.

Perhaps a 1 week ban would have sufficed. Just a suggestion.

Both of these were completely ignored:

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...ter#post234411

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...ter#post234409

The second one even had a one word "BUMP" post after mine but that was deleted after TITAN got banned.

You can't just assume vendors are doing the right thing by the community and vendors are obviously not permitted to show that they are either.

I'm sure others have similar stories to tell.
LOL it's interesting to see who become bad guy/s.

Want us to DELETE ALL the posts in vendor section? Is that make it fair for every vendors? So all the vendor's posts with before rule started will gone, zero, zip, notta. Let's see how many venders will agree w that.

And I gave a couple of examples.


Whilst I would not favour deleting all posts, it's your forum.

i enquired by PM with 5 vendors for KW V3 on 2nd July.

2 vendors haven't reply at all with another suddenly poped up to apologise for the late reply early last week and "promised to give me the price the next day" and i'm still waiting for the reply.....

Chris (Titan) and one other were very prompt.

I'm pretty sure Chris is fast replier along w few other vendors... but that' wasn't my question.

When's good time to report, when vendor isn't replying back? Days? Weeks? Months?

sorry i mis-read your post. maybe a week or 2?

or should we just have 1 thread of each vendor on this review page and we just share our feedback?? a way of communcation between the vendor and members as sometimes they might have messages that they would like to post (eg. going on holiday, won't reply for 1 week etc).

Just my 2 cents

There def needed to be rules...its completely confusing as to what you can do and what you can't do when there aren't any rules. To the point you might do something as a vendor that might seem annoying or wrong by someone elses eyes on one forum and another forum they don't care.

I replied back to the Admin about changing the wording from MSRP to MAP becuase MAP is the Minimum Advertised Pricing, its a standard pricing that a lot of manufacturers allow and what most people sell items at. Almost no one sells anything at MSRP if there is a MAP pricing that is allowed.

Also I really do believe that us vendors should PAY to be a vendor. This cuts down on the chances of people getting scammed by some random guy who claims he sells parts and to just send them money. This also cuts down on people who just undercut pricings like crazy just to one up other vendors and gain a customer base. There are guys out there that price items lower than the amount that it would actually cost them to get the item (hence literally losing money instead of making money) just to gain a customer base which is an unfair practice.

I would love to pay to be a vendor here, even if its something like $40 or $50 a month would cut down on fringe vendors randomly joining everyday. Vendors think twice before they have to spend money to sell items and it may reject some who might not think its worth it.

Other than that, I like the rules. Keep up the good work.

Wow didn't realize you could be a vendor for free on here, that is scary stuff!


Still working with Chris on an issue, hopefully it gets resolved today. I'll reserve my 'experience' until then...

If they don't reply then don't do business with them.

You can also ignore them so that you will not see any of their future posts. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with certain vendors on here and their lack of communication. Maybe they just don't have their stuff together like some of the others do.

As for Titan: did he bump individual threads 3 times or did he bump one thread beyond the explicitly stated 3 times?

Exactly and thats what concerns me cause literally anyone can come in here, scam you and leave. Granted even if someone payd to be a vendor they can still do that but scammers tend to not spend money to get money.
