Hi guys,

What a great subject for a first post! Just wondered if anybody else had been stitched up by a guy called Jason Holmes in Clacton-on-Sea? Possibly trades as Atlantis Mini Centre and his address is 25, Alvis Avenue.

He was advertising a used T3 in the classifieds of the December 2005 issue of Mini Magazine (it was the one with the Smoke Grey MkI racer on the cover).

Agreed on a price of £75 including postage and sent him a cheque. Cheque is duly cashed and no turbo arrives. Call him and get the 'I will send it out Friday' excuse. Call again and it's now 'been sent out'. Days pass and he's 'going to kick some arses down the post office' and call me. He doesn't, and his phone is now permanently switched off.

Yep, total tosser. Reason I need to know is that I'm following up the advice of Trading Standards and will shortly be reporting pikey Jason to the police. So, if he has taken anyone else's cash I'd be pleased to know.

Cheers

You have his address? This calls for him to be signed up for all kinds of junk mail, porno journals / catalogues, anything that has a coupon from the Daily sport, visa applications, loan applications, hell, even stick a 'dog egg' in a jiffy bag and send that his way....

He'll regret it... Especially if you do the 'porno' thing, as he'll continue to get this for the next 100 years!
