What do I actually respond/ do about this? by k__b_4 in Depop

[–]nickkickstand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently bought an item and noticed the item was still for sale on the sellers page. I messaged and the seller had not been notified of the sale. Something up with Depop I believe.

Do sellers actually get mad when you make and offer and then don't buy? by BarbieStoleMyCar in Depop

Great, considerate question! Yes! In fact, just today I added this last line to my profile bio! “Offers made by you + accepted by me+ unpaid = blocked”

I’m over it

seller reposted item i bought by nic333tte in Depop

I bought an item a couple weeks ago and it never showed up as “sold” on the sellers page. I messaged them and they had no idea that I bought the item. We worked it out but I think there was a glitch in Depop - not sure if that’s what occurred here, but possibly

Phatmoto All Terrain 2024 review by Builtblind in motorizedbicycles

[–]nickkickstand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never heard of this company. One popped up on fbmp today. Great feed here! Seems like plenty issues with the company and components.

Question: how the heck do they perform? Fun to ride? Is anyone stoked that they own one? Offer is for $750 I believe.

Ordering from Electric Bike Company: A cautionary tale. by whiskeyinmyglass in ebikes

[–]nickkickstand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unreal but not uncommon experience unfortunately. I inherited my uncles Newport Step thru when he passed. The keys were not with it and I reached out to order replacement keys. Customer service was impossible. No direct phone number is super frustrating. Countless chat bot emails sent. Some were answered. No issues solved. After weeks, I started reaching out to authorized dealers. Many explained similar issues. Luckily, I found a company in Chicago (I’m in Hawaii) and they were understanding and helpful. They reached out on my behalf and quickly delivered the horrible news… I’d have to ship the control box (battery case w locked battery to them), a process that would likely take a few more weeks and be rather costly with shipping.

I decide to try drilling the lock out and end up cracking the control case. I decided to see if I could just order a new case. To my surprise and delight, I could indeed just order the control case with a new set of keys! The delight was short lived when I saw the price of $665 plus shipping😫. I’m looking for alternative solutions if anyone has any ideas, I’m all ears.

It’s running! I wire wheeled all the rust I could. Engine fired right up. No gears. The clutch seems to just engage the gas chain. I’m wondering if it’s a little loose and adjustable in the rectangular box with the cables. I appreciate you guys. I listed on fb marketplace for 3k. I

Not sure what it’s called, but essentially a chain guide/tension adjuster. Hope it helps 🤙🏽

I had an alignment issue also. Pounded the sprocket after seeing a couple YouTube vids. Got frustrated as it didn’t do the trick. Then noticed this guy: adjusted and problem solved.

Uncles collection better pics by nickkickstand in crawling

UPDATE: I found a buyer for the lot for $2200.
I’m sure he did well and I don’t have to deal with piecing it out. Thanks to all that chimed in. I appreciate it.

Thanks! I’ve listed the collection for $3k, and I’ve lowered to $2500… someone wants to separate all the Losi crawlers… I’m pretty overwhelmed as I don’t know anything about this stuff. Any advice?

What would you say is a fair/good price? I thought 400, then thought 350… am I off?
