Chris, I am sending you via surface mail another order. =
This
is for
another grab handle on the passenger side door =
post. MO is
enclosed in
the envelope.
Have deleted all the mail =
about good
guy/bad guy Chris. What a PITA, all
that
stuff
thanks, i appreciate it..
just doing =
this
for a little while longer till i get rid of most of my stuff. =
after
this experience, id soon just get rid of it all and be done with it. =
its not worth being permantntly branded like the way that guy did =
that to
me
over a $25 item because i forgot to put some damn sheetmetal =
screws in
the
box, and the delay from complications with my eye surgery. i =
couldnt
even
drive for 2 weeks. i feel like i gotta send a doctors =
note to
the vw van
list.
i dont do this for a living, but it =
does take
time. with the feedback i get,
it seems as most people just =
want to
complain. most people think that i run
some kind of shop or =
business, or
big vw junkyard or something. it aint like
that.. they =
think
and have nothing better to do with my time than cater to =
their
vanagon parts needs. .. Im not Busdepot or Vanagain with =
shiny new
parts, big websites and next day shipping. thats not me. =
there
are others
on the list who are also parting out vanagons, alot of =
people.
yes, i have
more vw van/bus related parts than the average =
person..
because i have a
place to store it, and its accumilated over the =
years.
you know, have space,
accumilate stuff. =
and so i
post it to the list , offering it to others who
may need it. i try =
my best
to get stuff out timely, but i dont have a UPS
pickup service =
who'll come
to my door everytime someone wants something. i
gotta drive 45 =
mins to the
UPS ditribution center. so i often get a few
things together =
to make
the trip worthwile. but i dont need all this. =
i
dont want it to get to the point where i go to a vw function and =
feel
ostracized (sp?) from other listmembers. all this sh*t in =
the past
few days
makes me sick, wondering why i dont just sell the 2 =
remaining vw's i own and
get a damn HONDA.
sorry, =
john, the
above wasnt directed at you, i am just venting.. =
