Brinen28's amazingly assanine post
« on: September 30, 2005, 04:52:31 AM »
Brinen, i am not even going to get into with you again for the hundred millionth time.  I respect my boss's wishes and not let anyone know his name or anything of that matter.  I can't help it that you do not respect his decision.  But the reason is quite understandable now, he doesn't want people like you sending him 1,000,000 assanine questions about who is he, can i meet him, what's his name and #, I mean seriously that is the most ridiculous stuff I have heard of from my year and some change on this site and doing business. No one ever asks those questions because i have 100% feedback on here and ebay.  I think my customer service is pretty damn good for being one person that goes to college full time and basically runs a business, bowls 5 nights a week, etc.  I always answer emails and messages within the day or if not the next morning if at night when i am at leagues.

 Most businesses usually have a policy of shipping within 3-5 days of payment, it has been 3 days since you have ordered, which i don't know why cause you seem to make outlandish comments but then want the same respect and service as people that are nice on here.  I treat others how they treat me and by the way you have done so far, it's ridiculous.

However, my boss told me that they were going out yesterday I believe so in all actuality you waited 2 days until the ball was shipped.

Kmel, I am not sure why your packaged hasn't moved yet, all the other ones that I put in the order at the same time as yours D Pat for example is moving you can ask him or he can chime in here and let you know.  Kmel, however is a nicer br member/customer, whereas he has already purchased 4-5 items from me.  He did post on the topic that brinen created but Kmel has done it in a much better personable fashion and for that I commend him.  Kmel and I have chatted via pm and he was just a little nervous as this is his first time purchasing on here and I can respect that but bro, gotta give me a little bit more than 12 hours to respond cause I gotta sleep! haha, plus i was at leagues all last night.  

I hope this clears up everything for everyone and anyone can feel free to pm me or post on here but I just hope that they make it respectable which A LOT of members on this site do, I can only think of a few who don't.

Also, I would just like to say that I am here for you guys as bowlers, that's why i try to hook everybody up with bowling balls for the cheapest prices around!  Also why i do the drawings so people that don't blow all their money on bowling balls, (like me, hahaha and D Pat and by the looks of it, Kmel is hoppin on our train), can get a great bowling ball for really cheap as low as 15 bucks for a high end ball?  Not bad if i say so myself hahahaha.  

What do other users think of my comments/business way?  I am open to constructive criticism as that's the only way people can get better, although a lot of people have told me already that I am the best on here. hahaha thanks to those guys!

While I haven't purchased anything from Ike, I'd have to say that what I've seen of his actions on here prove him to be an upstanding member of BR.

I have had 2 deals with Ike.  1 drawing & 1 on a trade.  Both went flawlessly.  Ike will be one of the first peeps I go to on this forum should I need some new equipment.

Yea I get pissed when people make wild accusations based on something they have no knowledge about.  I also get pissed when people waste my time via pm'ing about 50 messages and after you still don't like what I do and say you STILL bought a ball from me...anyone else find that odd?


Joe I am sending your tracking # to you via a pm.

Ike,

As you already know, we have done numerous deals over the past year and for the most part they where all good. One of my gripes was you not answering your messages in a timely manner after I knew they had been read. The makes people think something is fishy sometimes. To many messages are better than not enough. I also think some people could care less that you go to college work and bowl 5 nights a week. They just want the ball, shoes or bag they ordered from you in a timely manner, thats whats important to most people.. I have no doubt your prices are good, but you need to post something in your for sale posts that state the ball will be shipped in xxx amonut of days and not right away, because that what most people expect..

Just my opinion and you said you wanted all comments..

oh yea jim all of the deals have we have done went smoothly.  And of course I welcome all comments it's the only way to get better.  I understand most people don't care I am just stating the facts that I got stuff to do as well.  I used to read my messages, then come back later to reply and I would forget to reply by then, and you told me before that you were not to pleased with that so I have tried to get better on that aspect!

Thanks!

Brinen, he'll probably email me after he gets done at work today.  Yesterday I wasn't online to talk to him cause i was at bowling so i wasn't able to get any of the tracking #'s.

i understand what they're saying. i had a deal recently where my balls didn't arrive for a month, and the only thing that kept me somewhat calm was the fact that he kept in touch and called me to assure that it would go out. communication is way too important with internet trading to neglect.

I too will stand up for Ike. I was to meet him today at our drillers and talk about setting up a new ball for me. I was told he didn't show up as I was running a bit late my self, but I can understand he has things to do. I know he will be there the next time and I can accept that.

If you don't like the way Ike sells his stuff on here, go somewhere else and pay the higher prices...

Glenn, sorry buddy, I wasn't feeling well all day today.  Been in bed/on the computer almost all day.  Just let me know the next time you need me up there and we can talk about the drill pattern or anything else you need.

I'll vouch for him also. I got 3 NIB balls from him (2 new releases and one discontinued), and can say that they were in excellent condition with the specs I asked for one the 2 new releases. He did take a bit longer to get the equipment to me...but for the prices I couldn't complain. Like jkiser said, he did have a problem with messaging back, but by the time our transaction was complete he had seemed to alleviate that said problem. I feel I am slowly gaining credit on this site, and would back Ike on this matter against anybody. I'm sorry for whatever problem there is with the said transactions aforementioned, but like someone else said, if you want the stuff cheap...you have to take the hit somewhere else (like time of delivery). I feel that getting a NIB high-end ball for $30 cheaper is worth a few extra days. If you want the ball that bad, then send the extra money and have him overnight it to you. It'll come out to basically the same price as other places...but you'll get the ball faster!
