[damage]

Bernie,

I said earlier that I wouldn't post anything more on here but some of statements require an answer.

Seriously regardless of who I bought the car from (which was Kirkhams direct after they advised they don't have any agents in Australia and as of last week still say the same thing)

I became Craig's customer when I paid in advance $8,000.00 deposit for my compliance. Craig asked for this payment in advance so he could get a head start on getting all the items in that were needed for my car, he now wants to hide behind the excuse that he doesn't have the items required to finish my car yet I paid this deposit over 18 months ago.

Craig asked if he could handle the shipping because he had other items that he wanted to ship with my stuff and we could share the costs.

You may recall in one of my posts above I had my own shipping agents and a quote for the importation, well Craig's offer to help cost me more money which is why I questioned the freight bill. I don't see it as unreasonable for me to question the cost of something which I have already had a quote for. Craig states he is only passing on the costs that he has incurred but on several occasions now I have asked for the original invoices for which I have received no reply.

As far as I'm concerned there was no empathy on this from the start Craig offered his services (which is what his business is about so not sure how this translates to being a favour) he provided a quote for his services he provided an itemised list of the work that would be undertaken he asked for a deposit that was promptly paid paid and to date he has failed to deliver.

From the outset all I wanted was a job done, I didnt haggle the price I didn't so much as question it.

What I'm upset about is Craig failure to communicate and failure to deliver what he has promised.

I have said earlier that Craig is a victim of his own success clearly understaffed for the work he has and is taking on.
