This list reminds me of Triumph car shows which I do not attend very much. I
usually get bombarded with questions like: What factory produced the water
pump bolt for a 1961 TR3A? Or a conversation like this. CUSTOMER: do you have
this rare part I have been looking for the last 8 years and cannot find? T/O:
Yes we do it is $65, CUSTOMER OH my God $65, I could have bought that part for
$8.50 6 years ago, OK thanks let me check around some more.
I try my hardest to be a good business man, and yes for a profit. OK I admit
I made a mistake by not saying the TR5 may be a conversion (I did so in the
previous listing). I have since delisted it from eBay and also have sold the
car to a knowing buyer who was told about it's "title." I am also removing
myself from this babble. Thanks for the lesson and thanks to customers that
came to
my defense. And lastly remember there are at least several thousand places to
buy Triumph parts from! You the consumer are free to take your business to
any merchant you wish, and my suggestion; If you have a problem with a
merchant,
ANY MERCHANT, even the ice cream vendor, PLEASE LET HIM KNOW. 98% of us will
make good. BUT when you don't tell a merchant, how can he correct a problem? I
personally have made refunds or adjustments for customers 5 years past the
sale. Try to find good, not fault with everything. I am human and made a
mistake. God forgive me! When was the last time YOU tried walking on water??
Good luck to all,
Wayne Bier
