reverendzed Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 They say throw enough mud and eventually some of it sticks...mud has been thrown and sticking on this issue for years! You gotta do a whole lot of good work over a long time to clean up that mess! Rev.
saxon Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 So who's the lucky man with a set of 48mm webers now?
benny Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 i don't doubt what 1600 has to say for a second! As long as its all clear with the authorities they should sell quickly!
luvemfast Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 As long as its all clear with the authorities they should sell quickly! Agreed on that matter. But how can 1600 prove that Mr Plod says they are his? Until that can be proved, the deal can be a bit touchy. :-\
1600 Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 All I can say is its been like 3 weeks I have spoken to police and removed the item whilst I was dealing with them. Lindsay wrote on here that he reported it to police. Lindsay knows I have them and knows where i live. I have not been charged with theft and I am still in possession of them.
ruecian Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 A quick introduction : I was both customer and former employee of Lindsay of the Z-Shop. Having encountered this tirade compelled me to come forward to shed more light on the nature of his claims. Not sure who you all are with your internet nick names but thanks for your support fella's. Was a scum sucking idiot that had worked for us previously. Never take pity on losers. They will try & reduce you to their level. The owner of the 48's just informed me that the Police will recover them shortly Coming from a man who's in equal measure scummy, unscrupulous and wouldn't bat an eyelid about cheating his customers and endangering lives as a result, labeling others "losers" and "scum" is rather thick. Blaming one's personal failings on others is simply weak and disgraceful. I had previously purchased an 89' 300zx from said person in September '12, with the explicit understanding that it was in a safe, working condition with a "3 month / 5000km" warranty included as part of the deal. Within the month following the purchase, the car broke down numerous times (to be precise, 5) on the roads, twice of which put pedestrians at critical risk. On each of these counts, he refused to service it during trading hours, quoting "a busy, full up work schedule " (which by the way, was only "packed" due to his gross mismanagement and indulgence in non-value added activities). He even had to gall to insist that I be present to aid with the repairs after-hours, which I found absolutely ludicrous and flat-out refused. No reasonable person would have expected "warranty" from a service-man to be as such. Furthermore, I was also not made aware of the pre-existing problems with the vehicle, which he construed to "never have missed a beat". Clearly, a severe understatement. In the capacity of his employee, I was given full access to his books and soon discovered the nature of the business and became disillusioned but above all, disgusted by his behavior. Yes, he is / was mired in debt, and it was hardly surprising. Most of his day was spent monitoring/ turning his employees against each other, speaking to fellow enthusiasts/ indulging in inquiries during trading hours (frequently with no revenue prospects) and finding ways to make a quick buck on his next Datsun/Nissan fix-up, the values of which often bordered on absurd, given the quality of the parts used (largely scrapped) and level of workmanship. Considering how deeply entrenched in problems this person was, he seemed far more interested in boosting his own credentials (all words but no action) and pulling down everything he could lay his hands on with him. Talk about reducing people to your level, ha. I could go on for hours and hours about his misdeeds, but it would serve no useful purpose. My only intention is to lend credence to the words of people who have been wronged/fleeced by Lindsay and hopefully, aid them in avoiding the misfortune which befell me from dealing/trusting him at all. To Lindsay : Perhaps you should tell the public of your own misdeeds before even attempting to muddy the reputation of others in this smear campaign. Be utterly grateful I chose not to take you to Consumer Affairs or VicRoads. To the forum mods : I apologize for this rant.
Administrators gav240z Posted November 19, 2012 Administrators Posted November 19, 2012 Oh dear, it looks like a lot of dirty laundry is being aired on Auszcar. If this does get out of control I think the thread will need to be locked. The issue is in the hands of the Police now and as such I would like to see them deal with the situation.
1600 Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Looks like I'm not the only one Lindsay has stooged.
zeds4ever Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I always believe there is two sides to a story & so there was. Glad to see that the supposed guilty party was proven to be innocent . Those that were quick to condemn should have waited for the full story to unfold. The perpetrator of all this should hang his head in shame & never use this Forum again. Shame shame shame. Regards : Alan.
dat240z Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I dont know or care whos in the right here, but with a lot of accusations and slanging going on, youd want to be careful of raising a defomation case fellas. In saying that, I fully support outing douche bag theives and shoddy repairers. Interesting reading though:)
53-681 Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 i don't doubt what 1600 has to say for a second! As long as its all clear with the authorities they should sell quickly! +1. Has Lindsay gone all quiet or is it just me?
Z Shop Performance Posted November 22, 2012 Author Posted November 22, 2012 Cant say much till our lawyer does his thing. The owner of the webers informs me that Constable Crane from Oakleigh Police has just returned from leave. Charges are about to be laid.
dat240z Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Wow, its bizzare how two people can be so adament that they are in the right.... keep us updated
1600 Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Lmao lawyer what ever you can't even afford to live day by day let alone afford a lawyer. Bob and Lindsay went down to the police station made there false claims with police man Crane. Constable Crane will not be charging me. I have to go in for a interview now to put my side on tape. Then the police are gonna say well we can't decide who is right so it becomes a civil matter and the police will not get involved anymore. This is coming from my lawyer.
C.A.R. Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 I really think this thread needs to be locked. No more good can come from it...
Administrators gav240z Posted November 22, 2012 Administrators Posted November 22, 2012 Agreed it's run its course. Funny it's the most viewed thread in the last couple of weeks.
