Title: chain oilers BATCH TWO
Post by: johnr on February 22, 2011, 10:49:25 PM
as it says, if you want a loobman and havent already ordered and paid for one. then add your name here and how many you want. when we have 12 i will ask for payment and order them. but i wont be asking for any money till ive sent out the dozen im waiting for delivery of from loobman.

so, add your name and how many you want. and dont do anything else till i ask for the money.

And there I was going to use it as a 2T pump....On a serious note I wonder if chainsaw lube would work in it?

I'll have one.

Post by: johnr on March 10, 2011, 09:40:23 PM
not to sure i can be arsed now. i had all the hassle of ordering them, and getting the new ones instead of the older ones. and the guy from loobman asked if he could have some pics of them fitted for his website, so i said thats not  problem.i ordered them, faffed about when they didnt come, wrapped them all up and posted them out. 12 from here and 12 for the katana club. and when i work it out, i actually lost money on every single one. not that i wanted to make owt, i just hadnt expected to pay for the privelege of sending them out. anyhow, i ring loobman about a price for this batch and he asked me 'did you send me those photos for the website' 24 oilers sent out, guess how many pictures sent back? not a single fucking one. ive asked there and ive asked here, and still got none. so im thinking, 'fuck it, why should i be bothered, nobody else seems to be'. and the best bit is, i sent out all the oilers to folk, and didnt even get one myself. so now im gonna end up having to order myself an oiler and pay full whack for it cos i bought over 220 quidsworth off him and eneded up spending over 260 quid sending them out. dont know why i bothered. ??? ???

Aye johnr,

So how much short of the postage were you???????????????????????

There is no need to take the harrumph. I am happy to pay my way and ensure that you have a freebie on the TC.

As for the non-fitting of the lubricator! I've 2 Scottoilers working fine on the bikes, which we use as day to day. The Lubeman jobs were purchased for a couple of bikes awaiting rebuilding and likely to be used in better climes! If Mr Lubeman doesn't have the patience or courtesy to either 'Thank you' for putting trade his way, or consider that your life doesn't revolve around selling his device, then perhaps we should all take note with our custom.

My thanks again and kind regards, Bill.

Post by: Ian on March 10, 2011, 10:38:42 PM
Im sorry to hear you were down John. I will send you my deficit. My loobman is also for a bike that is being rebuilt, so I cant send as photo as yet. I know all the effort you put in as you gave us the run down as the tale went on. Mr Loobman is a bit of an impatient ar se isnt he? He obviously thinks we buy just to show off his goods. I think there was another reason that he is so blind he cant see the wood for the trees. Im sure we, on the TC site, will make sure you arent out of pocket too.

Kind Regards and thanks once again

Ian :)

*******, sorry I didn't reply sooner, but I hadn't looked at this thread. I too ordered an oiler for a bike I'm building, not one that's on the road so no chance of piccies sorry.

As for the deficit, this is a depressingly common thing. Every time I made a batch of T shirts for our Elefant Rally trips I lost money. You do the sums, you sell them all but somehow it's never right. My brother gets the same thing every time he organises a staff outing or golf trip.

I will send some more extra wonga over and I'd encourage all other TCers who bought an oiler to do the same.

Sorry to hear about your hassle, but thanks again for still taking the time to sort it out despite the aggravation.

Edit - Just sent a payment via Paypal.

Post by: johnr on March 11, 2011, 11:41:45 AM
that wasnt a request for more money. stop sending it. ! i was just pissed off that nobody had bothered with the pics. i would have thought there might have been some by now. i know the other batch went out to the kat club guys in jan, and know for a fact theyve been fitted cos ive seen some of them, but still nothing forthcoming. its no big deal and loobman didnt say much, i told him id not got them all in yet, which is correct, in that none of them is 'not all' id just thought we would have had more by now. like i said its not a case of the money, which i'll be returning.
Title: Re: chain oilers BATCH TWO
Post by: johnr on March 11, 2011, 11:44:06 AM
anyhow, against my better nature, batch 2, i'll be posting this weekend for payment for the next lot when ive worked it out and made sure loobman hasnt fecking lost the order like he did last time!
Title: Re: chain oilers BATCH TWO
Post by: andy230 on March 11, 2011, 01:29:35 PM
No probs John.

Sorry for the hassle, its much appreciated.

Let me know how much (re-calculate the postage etc!) and I'll paypal to you when necessary.

Cheers- pint at the Annual Rally??

best,

andy

Title: Re: chain oilers BATCH TWO
Post by: Dr650rs on March 12, 2011, 06:56:29 AM
As above, still want 2 so let me know the price and will send the money asap. Appreciate the trouble you're going to for us all.

As for pics, I'll fit it as soon as I get it and email you this pics straight from my phone, so that'll be 1 set.
Title: Re: chain oilers BATCH TWO
Post by: johnr on March 12, 2011, 05:44:51 PM
ok, pricing, ive been on to lobman, he will do us a batch of 12 oilers that works out at £ 10.50 for each oiler. postage will be £1.70 per oiler, if you want 2 or 3 oilers postage will be £2.50 for the lot. this is what parcel farce charges me.

my email addy for the paypal is  johnrregan@yahoo.co.uk when ive got payment for all 12 i will get them from him.

just for your info, loobman lists the individual oilers at 18 quid each on his website. so this is a handy saving.
Title: Re: chain oilers BATCH TWO

Open your PayPall account.
Click 'Send Payment'.
Enter John's e-mail address (as receiver) and payment amount (in sterling).
Press confirm.

Relatively painless...........

Title: Re: chain oilers BATCH TWO
Post by: johnr on March 24, 2011, 03:47:55 PM
right ive only had payment for 11 of them in, but ive ordered them anyway, i'll keep the last oiler for my own bike, so no more payments now thanks. when they turn up, i will get them posted out to you. i dont think there will be much call for a batch three but if anyone else wants one, post a thread about it and collect names and if there are 12 i will order more. if i get any more, i will end up on the lubeman xmas party invite list!!!
