Hi Woodman/Mike
My point here is that this can only be half the story. Irrespective of the moral issues and whether this guy is guilty or not.
I find it very difficult to understand:
1) How Musicman made these mistakes in the first place like sending a £1000 piece of kit to a stranger in Scotland without any precautions. He simply isn’t that wet behind the ears.
2) If he really did make these mistakes, why would he then be happy for Woodman to publish all about it on here, bearing in mind the obvious views that some people might derive about the situation or him as a result and I don’t mean the "burn the witch" ones. This can only compromise Musicmans position.
3) Why if all is straight forward has he not taken any real action about it up till now and simply just dealt with it, he would know what to do. Even in Scotland its not that difficult, unless he knows he cant for some reason. Was there a dispute?
4) As Fox indicated, what could he get from here that he couldn’t already deal with himself and why is Woodman posting as there would be no legal difference in respect of public beratement.
5) Is Express involved in this transaction somehow in respect of your emails to him, or do you know him personally. Otherwise why would he talk to a stranger or somebody that’s not involved about the matter?
6) Why would somebody simply not pay for something if they felt they could be held responsible and suffer the consequences unless they felt very confident about their situation.
On a separate note (and with respect):
Why has CIU got involved at this level thereby risking liability? I understand the moral issues of course but its not apparently been resolved yet so isnt it all premature?
Although if this is the start of a cleaning version of WATCHDOG, it might be an idea to start a new category, I can give you half a dozen to start you off
However there is always a reason for everything
So my question is, what’s the rest of the story??
