    Maple Leaf PV on Ebay - over it

    Having read Wompet's dealings with the woman selling Maple Leaf tartan on Ebay, having oredered a few metres myself I copied and pasted his comments to said woman. After a month and now several "woe is me, I don't have the fabric, I'll go get some, etc.." I've given up. I requested my money back as she apparently has no intention of living up to her part of the deal.

    Lesson learned, when I get ready to attempt my Maple Leaf, I'll just go to Gordon Kirkbright.
    Auctioning off something you don't have is just stupid.


    CT - and yes, Ebay has heard the whole thing now.

    The Kilt Police may have missed this one CT, but I'm sure the Kilt Gods will catch up to her.

    CT - Sorry to hear it. Not surprised, but sorry to hear it.
    The Maple Leaf is a few projects down my list, but I really only need a single width. You're welcome to the extra width if it's usable (I still have to check out the entire length for defects).

    Sorry to hear it. I can say that, while they're slow, Ebay usually makes it right... eventually...

    WHY do people do things like this? I mean, there's no point. You get the bad karma and the stigma of being a cheat, you know in your heart that you're cheating people, and for what? ...a few tens of dollars? It's just stupid.
