i don't have to trust anybody in this thread, because i don't know both party.......the fact is very clear...that is
1. dale and huy make a cue trade....dale is not happy, because he find out that the shaft is not what he expected... it's still 13 mm shaft, but with some heavy blueing and that is not what he thingking about a nearly new condition shaft..
Heavy bluing was not the issue at all. huysmall had the one shaft stripped of a layer. HUGE difference between stripping a layer and heavy bluing. But please don't let me confuse the issue with the real facts.
2. huy come with an argument that there is some miscommunication...that dale can not accept...
Some communication? huy refused to even acknolwedge the problem or respond to Dale until after it was evident he was being tried in the court of his peers here and had been found GUILTY. Only then did he start making excuses, such as the language barrier, which was complete BS.
So, until now there is a question ...is huy a liar or both party got some misscomunication
Pretty evident to everyone except you that huy is a liar. To a degree, that is irrelevant. Liar or not, miscommunication or not, the fact is the cue huy sent to Dale was not as he described. One shaft had a layer stripped from it. Regardless of the reason huy did that, the responsibility is his to fix. huy has ZERO complaints about the cue sent to him by Dale. It was EXACTLY as described.
......So, there is just two option Huy's a liar or the argument he told us is true....there is NO way that he is a Scam, because he STILL sent the cue to dale...
second part is after all this drama...huy come with a 2 option solution
A. 50$
B. Trade back with split cost for shipping..
Dale still insist with 200$ that is not reasonable offer and still insult and bash huy in the Forum... And when finally dale want to take the B option huy is already give up to trust him and ask a escrow service. huy is throwing out the escrow crap as a stalling tactic. Why should Dale submit to an escrow service, he has proven himself at AZ over 100 times to be a trustworthy guy and he proved it with what he sent to huy. huy caused this, Dale shouldn't have to be inconvenienced any further than he already has been to make things right, that's huy's responsibility.
So, if you don't drunk enough you would find out, that this Huy guy want to end the problem with solution, but dale is angry enough and blindly not see the real situation and miss the chance to end this problem with peace..... It's appears stupidity, not alcohol, is the problem with your understanding. Or a disproportionate bias towards huy. Or both.
