Here come da TMF popo!...

 

.....who are simply trying to help people out.  

 

We could just let random people sign up, advertise £300 items on here, let you send them your money and not be able to help in any way at all when you've spent your money and no goods come through the post.. :thumbsup:

 

 

As Matt has said, the Traders registration process is there to protect TMF members from being ripped off. Traders details are kept on a database in order that they can be used in the event of any issues.

 

Is there any need to refer to team members who are trying to make the forum run smoothly using derogatory terms? (I take it the phrase was meant derogatorily?)

 

 

You literally have the wrong end of the stick haha, and defiantly not against you guys, thats what I call police, ill go hang my head in shame that my "joke" failed   :shy:

I think it would be a pretty unique watch if everything is true, but not sure I believe it. Like you all say, send off parts of your own Mini and get one custom made, with your own vin number printed. Then the price would be right, maybe even willing to pay a tad more for the custom made watch. I like unique/quirky things like that and It's a pretty good market.

These should be made more true to the mini.
If you walk at a certain speed it should have an annoying rattle that you can't pinpoint where it's coming from.
One day you go to put it on and it has filled with water.
Would be cool if it drips a little bit of oil over your nice clean shirt now and again.

hmmmmm, very odd concept.............just because you want to eat the burger, doesnt mean you want to meet the cow!

 

 

i agree with above comments, if you could send a bit of your car off that would be more interesting.

 

£250 ish for a watch that isnt made by any kind of prestige manufacturer seems expensive to me. id rather go to a good jewelers and buy something. having said that i wouldnt spend that much on a watch anyway.

 

 

just because you want to eat the burger, doesnt mean you want to meet the cow!

 

Definietly the quote of the day.

The thing is
Just because Asian man walks through airport turnstiles sideways doesn't mean he's going to Bangkok.
