Some of you may have noticed a hybrid pole for sale on eBay (Item number: 260236960943).  This is, we believe, one of our poles which we are in the middle of reclaiming from a customer who has not paid for it despite numerous calls/emails/etc since October 2007.  You can imagine our surprise to see it turn up on eBay!  Because the customer lives in Scotland there are different procedures we have to go through, but it is in the hands of an agency who are bringing a civil court action on our behalf.  The seller on eBay has been notified and the police are aware of the situation.  We don't want any of you guys ending up with a pole that gets reclaimed by bailiffs.

just had a look at it alex, why haven't they paid you?

[Alex Gardiner]

We believe this is the original pole we sent to our client in October.  He emailed to say he didn't want one with a grey base section (not as politely as that), did we have any with a red base section.  We did, so we couriered another pole to him the next day with the courier instructed to pick up the original pole.  Unfortunately whilst he accepted delivery of the replacement pole, he refused to let the courier have the original.  We have been chasing this ever since and a few weeks ago decided to use a debt collecting agency to take this to the next level.  Unfortunately for him, the next step is bailiffs which will end up costing him a lot more than the price of the pole by the time court fees, bailiffs fees and the agencies fees have been factored in.

I'm shocked to think that he reckons the pole belongs to him!

Good man Alex, send the bailiffs in - just wait and see if he tries to stop them!!

All for the sake of £300 odd quid?  What an idiot.

I hope you you get him sorted matey.

[Jon-scwindows]

are you going to bid on it and collect it without paying or get some bailifs to do it for you? dont want it to end up somewhere else if someone else wins the auction.

If you report to ebay they will remove straight away, there very quick as i had someone put a mobile on my selling page that didnt belong to me and i contacted ebay and they removed it.
