Awwww... Thanks Kelly. Pauls just jealous cos he'll never be as manly as me and cos I live in Melbourne while he's out in the sticks!!! LOL

Paul is about as manly as a Thai ladybody with red hair.

I'd rather be bald than have red hair.

Can I rant? kthnx, here I go: Good news is - I have a buyer for my rims. Bad news is - I can't sell it to him because my new rims aren't here yet. Really f**king furious with a USELESS courier company that has 'misplaced' one of four rims I purchased from Melbourne. Four were sent (30/12) and only three arrived here at home in Sydney (31/12). They don't return phone calls, they don't seem terribly bothered by it. And their disclaimer states they don't take responsibility for any loss or damages. My arse they won't.... And now I've gotta tell this buyer who wanted to buy my rims this coming Friday that he'll have to wait until I take delivery of this final rim. I'm going to try get a deposit off him. I feel bad because I don't know how long he'll have to wait before he takes delivery of the rims. I wouldn't blame him if he looked elsewhere for the rims. f**k. ~ shiv

Shiv mate, that really, really blows chunks. Really sorry to hear about that rim mate. Some bastard probably wanted a full size spare.

Yeah maybe, but I dunno. I'm gonna get to the bottom of this though. And if they can't find it, they better replace it or else everyone from A-Z in the White Pages is gonna find out what useless twats they are.

Could you just imagine the cost of a replacement B4 5-spoke from Subaru "Genuine Care" is? HA! It'd cost more than the price I paid for four of them.

GGGRRRRR

Despite their Disclaimer which states their non-responsibility for loss and damage, your costs would have covered insurance (well they should've if the Couriers know what they're doing) so if a rim has gone missing or is damaged the replacement will be covered by the insurance, if they believe they can get it to you I'm sure there's some guys close to you that can loan you some stockies to ride on after you sell your current wheels.

If it has gone missing, and there is no insurance, get some Legal representation stat, even if it's just your Lawyer's Office ringing the Couriers, that'll rattle them enough to come clean, or pay for replacement, as they are in the wrong, and would not want to shell out legal costs. Lawyer might charge you $100 at the most.

Had alot of experience shipping parts through couriers :D so I know the drill.

Yeah I spose $100 getting a lawyer to scare them is cheaper than a million dollars buying an item from "Genuine Care" Subaru Parts dept myself. I'll start by ramping up the pressure and see where that gets me. You know I need to change my number to PRIVATE so they'll answer my calls. Ridiculous... And thanks Tristan. I'll keep that in mind. But for the time being I will not require them as the buyer I had for my wheels is no longer interested as he doesn't have the time to wait. So now I'm really cut with this stupid courier! //thank godt for this thread! Need to blow off some steam

You could always "convince" them to cover your legal fees :D

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

What a fukken start to the day.
Some one wasn't paying attention to the traffic ahead of them this morning.
So ends up, Mary's car is now quite a few inches shorter, and my daughter has been taken to hospital with a sore neck and headache, which we suspect is nothing too bad, perhaps a strain.
FARRRRRRKKKKKKKKENNNNNNNN HELL.

It was a hard hit, but the Foz coped quite well. The Daewoo was not drivable.
Now both the B4 and the XT are at panel shops, I hope they give me a hire car.

Shit Frank. Hope your little one is OK. Sorry to see your wife's XT in that sad state. Almost makes it not worthwhile having a nice car to drive around in. I thought my rant was a pain enough, I was going to write that today is day three and my car is still not ready after it's billy overhaul. Two plus hours to catch public transport to the joint, and SOO081 is up on stands with. The billies lying around it. WTF?!

Looks like the Foz held up to the shunt pretty well Frank. Hope everything is well with your daughter.
Take the trackie out for a drive?

When I got a quote off 'em they told me to expect it to take up to two weeks mate. Good excuse to take the sillycar out? :D

And become a temporary Australian. I don't think so.
Hate to think what would have happened if I was on a bike and that girl hit me.
Alex isn't that silly either. He's seen first hand the repercussions of motorcycling.

You spelt deathorcycling incorrectly.
