I feel your pain, I too was taken for a ride back in July 2007 by a member on here and I drove all the way to Brackley, nearly 80 miles, took the guy on trust only to find out when I got home and opened the box to find I'd been ripped off with 1 set of lifted rear springs and 1 set of std fronts.
It would have cost more to go back than the springs were worth but his time will come.
I wouldn't and didn't let it drive me away from the forum, But I won't have anything to do with this guy again even if he was selling a mega bargain which he seems to do a lot of selling on here (makes me wonder if he's running a business buying and selling stuff Hmm wonder if the tax man knows now there's a thought). :lol:

This is a shame that you would even think of leaving the club."DON'T" The fact of the matter is its a big club lots of members. The chances are that there are some right scum bags among us as in everyday life but there are some great guys on here to.
I would just urge anyone who is buying anything of a member they do not know be very cautious and sensible about what and how you buy.
There has been many stores of people ripping people off on here but as Jas said we tend to here one side of the story, and never here who is at fault so others can learn and not deal with that person, so it goes on same people same stores. I'm not saying this is right or not. "Just Be carfull out there guys"

And don't buy a car off anyone giving money to a 3rd party for safe keeping whilst your waiting to pick up the vehicle !!!

I went through a similar period of not wanting to join in after my unit got broken into last year. I lost 2 RRC and thousands of pounds worht of stuff (the day after I found out it got burned to the ground so I lost a lot more) and what was galling is that all the stuff that was nicked was LR stuff, so I knew it was a fellow "enthusiast". I too didn't want to be a member of any comunity populated by theiving scum.
Thing is some of my best mates are members on here too, some came to our wedding and one is my son's godmother. Don't let the actions of one **** spoil it for you, there are such people wherever you go and yes they possibl exist on here too.
But on the whole we are all mates, common purpose and all that, all for one and one for all.
If you do leave then I at least will understand, but I suggest you don't burn any bridges yet. If you go to ground for a while then so be it, all the best mate and keep the rubber side down.
