>> Hi Listers.
>>
>> MV Content: Military tires for my 6X6
>>
>> I need your thoughts with a situation that has arisen between fellow
>> lister Gene Pantano and myself.
>>
>> I ordered some 1100x20 tires from Gene back in January and allthough I
>> asked him a number of times to be sure that he was shipping 1100x20 tires
>> I
>> ended up receiving 900x20 tires after paying shipping fees, duties and
>> taxes to get them into Canada.
>>
>> Gene was surprised to hear this and did admit that he hadn't checked the
>> tires but instead asked his wife to check them. Upon further investigation
>> he learned that his supplier had not only sent him the wrong tires, the
>> supplier knew he had sent the wrong ones!
>>
>> We both agreed at first it wouldn't make sense to ship them back so Gene
>> suggested I try to sell them up here and in the meantime he would try to
>> find the correct tires which by the way the supplier had sold to someone
>> else when he didn't hear back from Gene.
>>
>> I tried selling the tires within the two clubs up here as well as on this
>> list. But as I had paid too much for 900x20 tires ( 900's usually cheaper
>> that 1100's )no one was interested in buying.
>>
>> I tried a number of suggestions to resolve this situation but all have
>> been shotdown by Gene.
>>
>> Gene will only reimberce me what I paid for the tires plus I have to get
>> them to a friend of his in California ( 1500 miles away). He refuses to
>> pay
>> any any of the shipping costs involved in this mistake ... only what I
>> paid
>> for the tires.
>>
>> My last try at trying to resolve this situation resulted in a email from
>> Gene telling me he is tired of my whining and not to email him again. I
>> wonder who would be whining if I had sent him a bogus money order!
>>
>> A number of long time listers will know that Gene has used this list to
>> get action when he has been burned by someone, so I thought I would bring
>> this situation here to see what you people think.
>>
>> What I'm asking of this list is how you think the mistake should have
>> been
>> resolved. I'm not asking you to judge Gene's character only constructive
>> criticism please.
>>
>> You can email your thoughts to me directly but I would prefer you send
>> them to this list in the hopes that Gene might read them and have second
>> thoughts.
>>
>> If nothing else I may raise some interesting discusions about using this
>> list to buy and sell stuff.
>>
>> Thankyou all for taking the time to read this.
