Guest jhepburn Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Anyone have information as to why he was banned? I sent Ric $850 for a LED tail light conversion. I have never met the guy, obvious since I am in the US, but want to make sure I don't get burned. Anyone stay in contact with Ric? Thanks, Jeremy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 The irony here is he was banned for trading on the forum without authorisation. We asked him to get in touch to discuss it and to stop trading via the forum and he put forward an arguement but continued to trade (replying to PM notifications gives the game away somewhat). So unless he can put forward a very good case I'm not sure he is coming back. Hope you get what you want from him, but if you traded with him via the forum without him being an authorised trader there is not a lot we can do to help.

By "trading" do you mean purchasing goods from a person without that person being a forum sponsor? UK lingo is a bit different than US lingo and I want to make sure I am understanding what you're saying. I purchased a new set of rear tail lights that Ric was installing his LED conversion in. Many members have vouched for him on supraforums.com, which is why I decided to send a Ric money to perform the LED conversion for my car. I am not looking for any assistance per say, just some insight as to why he was banned and if anyone has any way to get in touch with Ric outside of PM's. I am glad he wasn't banned for screwing people over, that was my main concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Does anyone have a way to get in touch with Ric (phone number, email address, etc.)? I have his email address. He was selling items on the forum that authorised people were also on here to sell. Heckler does LED rear lights. I dont think it was the odd set. I got him to do my headlights as I contacted him through ebay from an ad of rear lights that were on there. If you PM me your details I'll forward them to him and ask him to get in touch for you. EDIT: didnt see Dnk's post beat me to it by hooours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Yep don't think anyone had any complaints regarding the work did they? Just he was breaking forum rules. He is a nice chap they do take him a while to make iirc. It's not easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
