He didn’t pay at all, just sent merlin a picture of some cash.

its not the money i’m minted already given them away but with shops if all you can see is a picture then the picture should be what you get.

I hope these pictures explain why buying the product based on looks is unwise – not cheating and looking at the code can anyone tell them apart?

as far as i can tell, using only looks, paint the lockring black and ta dah you have XT

Most amusing thread of the day.

What was in the order confirmation?

I ordered from this same email – dumb bastards sent me XTR 😀

how much did I pay for it ?

What was in the order confirmation?

they are not sure as there was not enough pictures to compute

I am properly gobsmacked by this post 🙂

There we go!

its a line of numbers means nothing to normal people

I read it as a usefully descriptive list of items and their prices… 😉

no need for insults healthy chat by adults no kiddies need join in

Best thread in ages!

And yet you had to keep trying to flog your Yeti. It’s hardly an indecipherable list of numbers, it clearly says SLX or XT.

Does the Merlin you talk to have a big pointy hat, a wand and a cape with gold stars on it OP?

And here’s me,getting a bit bored of the fixie thread,and this pops up.There must be a god after all…

yeti for sale needs rotors

Why did you not buy XTR if you’re minted………….

OP’s for sale thread

But… but… there are no pictures in your for sale thread – how do we know what you’re selling?

Why did you not buy XTR if you’re minted

[b]that’s not what was on the picture numbnuts how could he buy them !!!![/b]

Loving the thread tag!

He wants more for used Hayes rotors than Merlin do for new SLX ones !(well I assume they are Hayes as there are no pictures )

who goes of codes I cant tell you what rotor is what code not unless your some sort of rain man, I loo for pictures when on a web site the picture shows XT you get SLX wrong.

Loving the thread tag!

I guess someone else didn’t…

Stop it! Stop It! I can’t see the screen through the tears!! 😆

Look out for Merlin! Great service and prices!!! (Barstewards!!! 😀 )

OP you are going to be REALLY disappointed if you ever use a dating website or order a thai bride online, because what turns up is NEVER what you ordered.

Don’t eat in McDonalds for god’s sake. You’ll explode when you see what they serve compared to the pics!

Just a second, I think I’ve been had too. Ordered a set of Reba forks and the photo on the website shows a white pair with QR and the box arrived containing a black pair with 15mm through axle! By some coincidence though that was exactly what I wanted, I wonder how they knew? 🙂

Edit: I’d love to watch the OP try and order a Hope pick and mix headset from Merlin.

Best thread of the week!

Congratulations, OP.

Superb. Please keep it up. I can’t bear to watch The Bourne Supremacy again … actually I can.

Regardless of model, there’s no banana for scale. I ordered what I thought was a 203mm and ended up with a 140mm 🙁

I haven’t been this flabbergasted since learning a raisin is a dried grape.

I bought a tin of dulux the other day but have to take it back as mine seems to be missing an old English sheep dog…it’s just full of paint. Not the bargain I was expecting…

It is incredible. A mate of mine has a machine for drying them out and makes his own raisins!

Can he put it into reverse and turn a kilo raisins into a bottle of wine? That would be clever…

Must be doing wonders for his currant account

I am not keen on currant puns.

That’s a raisonable thing to do really

He has grape success at it.

Three pages, can someone just summarize it all into one big picture then I won’t need to bother deciphering this special language called english 😆
