Dear Admin....

care to comment on this post made by a site sponsor???

click here.... please....

if I read the rules and regulations of this forum correctly.... plus what baby1M has posted within the tread...

click here......

there should NOT be any mention of any rival site sponsor / shop's name etc in any post.... especially a post made in the capacity of a site sponsor / forum member.

yet J's magic's reputation was brought into this whole matter and put in disrepute....

I reckon appropriate disciplinary action should be given to the TS since mentioning of another site sponsor's name clearly flouts forum rules and the admin should hand out appropriate disciplinary actions....

yet I DO NOT see actions otherwise

I hope you understand that the purpose of that thread was to highlight the recent fraud cases so users will know better on taking the necessary precautionary measures before purchasing any items through the forum. TS can mean that the workshop sells customized bodykits so it is easily recognizable. There is no form of defamation in it, and no reputations are being put at stake here, so dont read too much into it.
If forum rules are flouted blatantly time and time again, all have eyes to see. Dont need to add fuel to fire.

Cheers

my deepest condolences on your unfortunate experience....sprawler


but outright name calling is considered NO NO on this forum.... hello... please read the rules.

leaving shortforms or acronyms to mention the culprit forum member who was the center of this whole alleged transactional fraud....(to what?? protect his identity?)


.... but in another paragraph.... an outright blatant name calling of a rival site sponsor???


I'm not fanning the flames... but just questioning if there is real motive behind this all to bring another business into disrepute.
 
Re: Play fair or play to your advantage?? Admins.... please comment

My conscience is clear n I have posted my clarification and have spoken to terry of j magic on this. If forum admin investigates n deem that I have purposely did that to harm j magic, feel free to impose any disciplinary action on me.
Lastly, The forum would be a better place with less flaming n fanners.

I wouldnt call it name-calling actually. Anyway, both sell aftermarket products of different kinds. Defaming either side will simply be slapping one own's face, yes? It is good actually that the workshop's name is stated, so at least now everyone knows that they practice good business etiquette, and is worth visiting. Rather than not mentioning it, and rumours spread; making matters worse.
If every forum rule were to be exercised heavily, im sure even you and me will probably get banned sooner or later. Im guessing the rules apply to those who constantly flout them regardless of previous warnings that have not been heeded. 2cents.

If this thread is about consistency with rules and regulations, why then are site sponsors allowed to post in The Classifieds since it is written under BMW Modifications, BMW Parts & Accessories that states "NO commerical product/service advertising here."?

Last time my friend's M3 installed AE lights from bimshop. I observed and continued to research. Then i saw Boss motor's AE lights.... They were brighter but more expensive.

So i voted with my wallet and got the brighter ones.

But i have never suggested / inferred / made reference / posted / blogged nor insinuated that one shop's products is more superior to another service provider.... I simply voted with my wallet.


Recently i converted the tints for most of the cars at home to Infratint after experiencing it myself. I have not made any posts to suggest other tints / service providers goods are less superior.

One time, i saw a 911 for sale.... The price was very attractive with full paperwork from stuttgart.... Almost pulled the trigger, but a friend stopped me and told me to triple check. Truth be told, i found out that it was a PI car adopted by stuttgart. I aborted the deal cos it did not fit my criteria.....


In this example.... sprawler... You went in with your eyes wide open, you were attracted to the 'simply cannot refuse... Too cheap' price and attempted to take the plunge. Then your emotions came into play cos you found out that they were non genuine bmw m performance parts but knockoffs (read replicas). You sian 1/2 and rejected the deal.

People buy replicas vs real stuff for various reasons.... Financials, price, durability etc.

But suggesting a product peddled by a certain business as inferior vs another service provider and going into naming names is just simply wrong.

i dont get it... theres alot of assumptions here.
I quote ''Seller was claiming that he was selling a original Msports kit from MA and he could even produce MA invoices.
As i was working to dekit the lights he got from me, i noticed the kit looked like its from J's magic which i asked him and he confirmed it.
Coincidentally, Bro Centurion9990 received a sms from this seller that claims its MA kit which i advised him not to get as i had doubts abt the authenticity of it.

Unfortunately, Bro Sprawler bought it and at J magic, he discovered its indeed a kit from them and not MA as claimed.''

How is there any suggestion that the product is inferior?

I think it's a misunderstanding.

My impression after reading Steven's comments in the original thread was more aligned and akin to Sprawler's clarification above. Truth be told, I did not walk away from the thread thinking that J's Magic had offered an inferior product. It was the rogue seller "XP" that was making his item appear to be something it wasn't - a case of misrepresentation, or fraud, if you'd like to call a spade a spade.

Perhaps Steven's composition left much to be desired - and was open to misinterpretation - but, I have no doubt that his intentions were noble when he posted the warning for all and sundry to note.

I also understand Jason's concerns - and his concerns are both fair and valid - but I reckon they were raised perhaps in response to a misunderstanding of Sprawler's and Steven (Bimshop)'s posts.

That's just my take on the issue - I don't know Sprawler (never had the pleasure of meeting him yet), but I have met Steven and Jason on separate occasions, and if initial impressions count for anything, then I'd be the first to say that I would be proud to count them for friends: these are 2 good guys, with their hearts in the right places.

Can do a poll to see if pple felt J's Magic was indeed maligned in sszone's post. I for one, didnt feel it was so.

uhmmm, yeah okay. You continue having fun with yourself now.
 
Re: Play fair or play to your advantage?? Admins.... please comment

jasonmaxima, please dont let emotions over-write common sense. Cool it, cool it.

Why I say so... as an observer, you do not seem to be reading things correctly after all the posts in differing sections, below is why;

Post #10 (it is a quote and unquote)
resulted in post #14 (obviously reading with emotions)
therefore came post #15 (kind of direct implication he is not interested to highlight to you that you entirely misread post#10)
followed by post #16....
resulting in my post #17.

FYI: I do not know poster of post #10, never meet poster before, never had pm exchanges with poster too. Same applies to poster of post#14. So am not on either side.

I actually read sszone thread and left with a better impression of my little awareness of j magic imho.
 
Re: Play fair or play to your advantage?? Admins.... please comment

What do you want out of this ?

Why the sudden interest in J's Magic and Bimshop ?
