well i can not back pedal with no pedals, and i also cant cover my backside with no seat.
In fairness, that was actually pretty funny.
if so you have lied through your teath (sic) as your (sic) shop had my phone number since i gave it [to] phil at 13.17 22rd june 2011.
Also in fairness, that second sic is unwarranted.
To be fair one final time, I would also have been annoyed if I had returned a new bike only to find an issue with the replacement. A lot of us are more than anal (bum chummery, you might say) enough about bikes to be sufficiently disappointed by a scratch on a new bike – however small – to want it replaced. I would not, however, have started slagging off the shop on multiple internet forums before I’d even spoken to them. Ask questions first, shoot second. You know, like the Americans do.
The OP should be particularly careful, as there is potentially a basis for libel here (not slander, as someone already pointed out). Not that it would be worth arguing as I suspect the claimants would struggle to recover costs, let alone damages.
It’s funny, how STW’s lowest lows are so often its most entertaining highs.
