think this is blown well out of proportion tbh, agree with points on boths side, but will say one thing, no matter whos is selling they are making profit, and it is worth it, or you wouldnt do it, but as mentiond if its helping members out with stuff at better prices then would otherwise be available then concession should be made
seen swampy picked on many times about trading- yet there are many more ppl trading without the bat of an eyelid........ for example(and if hes a paid up affiliate i do apologise..but i doubt it) there is one or more members selling HID kits which can be bought for around £10 a kit an is knockin them out at £50 plus per kit?
so who is trading and who isnt?

I agree, the bloke selling HID's should be a trader. Buying stuff for the purpose of selling on for a profit (no matter how much or how little) is trading. At the end of the day a lot of people on here sell stuff not to make a profit but to get something for their junk that's taking up space in their house, at the end of the day, something's better than nothing right? If you are making a profit on everything you sell then you are a trader, regardless of whether you are selling at bargain prices or not.

This has got well out of hand, I never ment for this major out burst from everyone , Only reason i posted this thread was to get a reply as i did have any other way of getting in touch with you. In my first post i never called him a scammer, i just wanted to get my point across
Anyway i will reply back once i get my bolts this morning (i hope) then this thread can be locked

And I hear you blame royal mail alot of your delivery times.
Funny I use royal mail every day for my job and never fail with my stuff.
Think you just forget to send them, and use that to hide behind IMO.
As the two times you said that to me, the date stamp on the parcels which is the date they receive it was the date before.
And the fact you live 5 mins from me you still Basiclly refused to sorted it, happily bring the two parts to show to prove that they are both wrong.
As still very upset in the way I had to chase around forums to get an answer out of you and wait two weeks for wrong parts.
Glad there people like Andy ( datashift) on here offer a much better customer serivce and always willing to help.

To confirm some points regarding Saxperience Affiliates...
- The cost is not £300.
- The minimum term is not 12 months.
- You dont get accepted as a Saxperience Affiliate just because you want to sell kit/services via the community.
- Only about 10% of the companies who apply to become a Saxperience affiliate are actually accepted into the scheme.

im very opinionated actually, maybe too much sometimes.
don't get your knickers in a twist...
the lad's waited and been ignored for ages, it's not just about the money he payed for the nut, like i said already, he might have been without his car for days/weeks whilst waiting for the bolts, it's more the inconvenience i think in this lads case
/opinion.

seconded!!! forum advertising is the BEST form of advertising we have! costs are minimal if you compare it to say a magazine ad, which may cost the same per month for a 1/4 page ad!
definately recommend forum advertising, only works if you are an active poster and take time to comment on forum topics, pms etc.. "forum presense" as it were.
