First of all let me post my side of the facts. All this started due to a request by jeff and dd that they wanted to order the side mirror for their cars. Since I can get them at resellers price I said no problem I'lll get it for them. In fact all this is done as a favour without any profit. Their min order is 3 units and at that time, only 2 was gotten. Since we have to wait for 3 to get the order in, I asked dd to pay some sort of deposit so that there are no last minute cancellations that will further delay the order. Unfortunately, due to the long wait for the 3rd unit and also some request for other parts the order was further delayed.
I smsed DD to inform him of the delay and asked if he wanted a refund of his deposit at that time but he still wanted to proceed with the order. In the meantime life for all of us continued. The past few months for me have also been extremely hectic as I am managing 3 companies and often been travelling and making datelines. When I am involved in important meetings or travelling I make it a point to cut of any incoming calls. I am sure those of you who hold meetings know the point in this. Also I make it a point not to talk while driving as I have been in some minor accidents due to this. Nevertheless I have always made it a point to return calls when I am free or when I am back.
Anyway, my solution to the problem is that the best I can do is to check on the orders and if there is no news before end of this month I shall ask Taiwan for a cancellation and refund. Since this is a personal favour for Jeff and DD I am dissapointed that DD has resorted to posting defamatory remarks on his own forum. Is this how you treat your friends and members? If you ask someone to do a favour for you, you have to wait until he or she is free to do you that favour. Not only that, by right full payment should be forwarded since this is a favour and not a business transaction.
If this is a personal vandetta against me then I too have the right to make this personal. I too would like to have a refund for the damages and loss of reputation for the defamatory remarks by July 11th! However if you can be civilised about this and not involve other people in the forum then so can I. The ball is in your court.
As a president of a club your word carries a lot of weight but also a lot of damage. Eg. if you call a person a rapist eventhough he is not, the whole world will think that he his. I hope that you will not misuse your power like this on helpless individuals in the future. If this is how you treat people you know, I dare not think how you treat people you don't!
