Rob Wilkie- The Pirtek £40 joker - Nothing still!

Post by vinny19791 »

Asking the question, had no response elsewhere so I'm here.

Paid for a part for sale on here 14 days ago, no PM's replied to and no part still. :thumbdown:

Granted guy hasn't been online since 15/1, its now the 24/1, cash sent via bank transfer 10/1. PM to confirm monies sent 10/1,

Reminder PM sent 18/1 still in outbox.

Thoughts? :-?

Maybe its because the car is a shell and I don't need the part yet :lol: :roflmao:

I would expect questions to be asked if it was me, so I have no qualms about posting this after 2 weeks

:)

So a bit awkward still no replies, or a part :whistle:

Come on someone must have ttrw (robs) number or a clue where he is?

If he has stuff going down then cool, but I need to know one way or another :lol:

Don't like calling people out but 14 days have gone and i've been fair so sue me :thumbup:

Likewise, bought a couple of bits off Rob recently and no problems. From what i gathered through our comms he works away so may be without access to forum etc.

Genuinely though 2 messages in outbox, one sent way before his last visit to site so ignored me, if it was me I would have been hung out to dry on here

:evil: He's only up the road I believe , but I'm hoping this is solved with a package to my door, or a refund of £40

Ideally I want the part :wink:

I know it's annoying and I have met him personally and bought bits and a car of him in the past I'm sure there will be a perfectly good reason as to why you have had no reply.

No way, the guys a clown, no two ways about it, banter I can take yeah but being ripped off from a fellow enthusiast is bullshit.

Don't know what to do really? He's ignored the PM's and now got a buddy to list the item on ebay as a joke, which seems the case, why would this chap buy its 3 weeks ago then suddenly sell it? The price was £40 posted, and this ebay clown has it at 99p start, its amusing. He's only 15 miles away, if anyway has his address they would care to share with me, I will have to go and get my money back

If you look through the sellers history on ebay, he is buying bmw 5 series bits ( ttrw2- rob had one) selling Volvo seats ( again ttrw2 - rob) had one. Clearly Robs ebay account, or a second account held by maybe c2k (simon) from here. Also sold a custom mesh rover grille, no doubt from robs stripped blue gsi along with the leather seats? Also a DTA sold by the member.. :lol:

All joking aside, this is my part!!!

As below cash sent 10/01 0858am, pm sent telling him at 0956am the for sale post updated at 1030am 10/01
by rob
Pirtek PAS pipe sold.

OP updated

10 Jan 17
MR R WILKIE 1000000002########

10JAN17 08:58
FPO

£40.00

From my Halifax online banking

So I have just messaged rob/c2k/random ebayer selling my part

Sent to ebay account rushmead

Amusingly this is a part I paid for on Rovertech on 10/01/17

£40 via Halifax bank transfer. I'm guessing this is you Rob TTRW2 or C2K from your feedback?

Volvo seats. Bmw 5 series parts, Rover parts. Cars you both have owned in the past, If it is you then either sent my paid for part, or refund me my £40

Vinny
:thumbup:

I believe that his chum c2k ( simon) may be involved in this also. for a guess that's one of his ebay accounts, as he used to have a Volvo I'm sure that they shared a few years back, and a bmw 5 series tourer.

this Volvo, ttrw had this for sale "for a friend" years back, the ebay account also lists seats sold by seller for Volvo 960 in his feedback a few years back. This one maybe?

Image

Here is their old 5 series

Image

Rushmead has his location set as BRACKLEY. Anyone have C2K's contact details? Thought he was abroad tbh, but just putting 2 and 2 together

This isn't funny anymore.

Incase anyone has missed what I'm saying

£40 was sent to ttrw2's bank account, that's Robert Wilkie incase anyone is wondering on the 10/01/17, that item has not been sent, my messages have been ignored and it now appears his "chum" is selling said item on ebay clearly as a wind up - Hope that clears this up and everyone is up to speed.
