Yep I did last weekend, 4wd winch comp, was awesome. Thanks for asking. 

Oh yeah have I told you we're going to Cape york?  I tell lots of people and lose track of who I told?

In defence of the OP, I think some are chewing him out a bit harshly - especially given that he is a relative babe on the forum, and possibly not used to the sarcasm of some of us.
Personally, if I make arrangements based on commitments to supply and fit, took time off work to make it happen, etc, and was then twice frigged around at the last moment, I'd be pretty p!ssed off too.

x3 six packs post was more than fair imo.

actually I did hear a rumour you once sold Lada Nivas?

That could have required a line or two;D

I did actually, and I always threw in a line or two for perspective buyers. But if they weren't into that a bottle of vodka.

does this look like it has an ARB or TJM bulbar?

[oldmate]

Nup, nothing like that. The door mirrors are completely different, and it has rated recovery points, yellow, which I may add I could not get from arb, but that's besides the point.

Firstly I would like to thank everyone who took part in this discussion whether you have agreed or disagreed.  We have all contributed rationally and openly and said our 2 cents worth either in favor or against my topic.  Everyone has been concise in their beliefs and we have even thrown in a few jokes at each other when disagreeing which I thought was really good.  I posted this thread merely for a discussion base, not to start a bitch fest between Dazzler and myself.  It was not my intention to entirely smash ARB or their reputation,  merely to advise you of the very poor treatment I experienced and yes throw my two bob in for what it is worth. 

Yes Dazzler I did have a little sulk you were 100% correct and I am very sorry mate but this is where I stop agreeing with you.  I have spent a considerable amount of money at ARB and unfortunate for them I did have a bit more to throw their way.  If you take note of my recent 4WD post I can recall praising this company for its very neat product installation.   Let it be said Dazzler I have always been spoken too politely by ARB staff, I do not have a problem with this side of their business practice nor do I wish to identify which stores I am referring too.  I do however have a very big problem being told the day before fitting (second time around I might add)  that my bullbar has not been painted yet.  I was advise upon payment of the deposit that they had two bullbars in stock and they sat on them for 5 weeks, they said and did nothing.  Yes I organised time off work etc, and yes I do not wish to go into this sulk as you referred to it.     

I acknowledge that I am new to this forum and yes I may not understand the forum to its full extent but I do however understand a rude aggressive smart arsed comment made by a person sitting safely behind his keyboard.  You know sometimes I wish that we could have had this conversation in different circumstances, not for the fact it would offer us the ability to beat each other stupidly, but for the simple fact that we would have certainly been more receptive to the consequence of each others response.  I'am sure your snapping aggression would have been some what channeled as would any comment I may have wished too make in response.

I am not writing this post with the intention to stage a direct assassination on you Dazzler because I really hope that I am better than that.  It is one thing to disagree with someone and yes that is OK, it is also very important how you correct the situation possibly by having a beer and a laugh not holding a grudge, that is what makes a good man.   I have said my peace too you my friend and I do not wish to retract my statements, as I am sure you feel the same.     

Perhaps you need to take a look at how you communicate with others and I too will think long and hard in regards to what topic I post on this forum in order not to offend you. This hopefully may prevent such childish bullShit occurring in the future.  Who knows we might even progress to some friendly conversation with each other and maybe get that beer.   If my thread to you was that unreasonable then maybe say this like a reasonable man and not snap it out like you control the forum.  If this was to be the case I'am sure our fellow swaggers will agree with you and I could effectively be corrected.   

As for the statement regarding consumer legislation I would suggest you re visit this Act.   Legislation can be very confusing to read and interpret, if this is your line of work I respect that, and if it is not be careful when throwing out your interpretation of such legislation, Just in case you are wrong. 

Cheers and beers my friend.  Don't sit too close to the fire.

Agreed, but I think a certain response might have had something to do with reply #16
