$2,000 cash if you find a buyer for my house, kumeuhouseforsale@straightshooters.co.nz for details
Ain't got time to read all threads, got to get to work, but if not sais already, I would not have paid the repo guy a cent. What was he going to repocess , the said bike was down south so fuck em I say, he should not have muscled you into paying the money, and frankly Haldanes should be bloody embarressed about how this money has been got back.........festus
Yeah that's why meon3 beat her self up so much after the guy left. But when your home alone and have a guy standing there wanting something done NOW, it's not easy.
Did not help that I phoned just as he left and said .."tell the guy to repo it"
Poor Leeann.
She did good given the circumstances. Thing is also that we know how much Josh had saved to buy the bike and it is his pride and joy.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnd I was there when he bought it! I've got to take some responsibility for it.
Finally.....I'm a nice guy but don't f##k with me or my family!
krusti out......
Haldanes should be directed to this thread... bad form on thier part perhaps by sending the Repo man onto her? Are they even aware of what happened here????? They got their money at any cost... is that all that is important, like in this actual situation???
Great P.R. to rectify the situation, me thinks???? What do the other 1000's of Kber biker members think, like the ones who may use Haldanes or not as a result????
That is some very good thinking.
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.
It's unlikely to be Haldanes. The finance will have been done through a finance company , Haldanes got their money at the time of sale. It's the finance company that have sent the repo in. They won't give a stuff about peope being upset. And in fairness, they would say that they just want to be repaid the money they are owed.(A few auto dealers run their own finance companies, but it's the exception to the rule)
The culprit is totally the chav who sold the bike. It was not his to sell, he did not own it. It is technically a criminal offence, but no way will you get the Police to get involved, they will say it is a civil matter.
Unfortunately, if the crook cannot be located, options are very limited.

Haldenes are not to blame...the guy who we got the bike off is. You live and learn although at my age I should have learnt this lesson long ago!
Trouble was it was the day after Boxing Day, we had ridden from Wanganui Street races all the way to Auckland and wanted to take the bike home then.
I don't for the life of me know why he can't be charged with fraud. But if he could our courts would probably be ground to a halt.
krusti out....
That sucks man. Do you know which 1 it is? address etc.
Reactor Online. Sensors Online. Weapons Online. All Systems Nominal.
Fair calls all above... not Haldanes fault at all, my bad...
Fairly sure there is an offence of selling an item that is on HP, as it is not yours to sell until you pay for it, meaning someone else still has an interest in it (ie finance co)... There was someone who did just that with a fridge and they were charged and dealt with in criminal court... will look into it and get back to ya...
Interested to see how this pans out. I'm sure Haldanes would be very sympathetic though it would be a stretch to expect them to help financially and no-one is suggesting they should, of course.
Sympathies Krusty and family! It sucks that there are so many people prepared to either batantly rip others off or are casually unconcerned about the affect their selfishness has on others. I'm sure you're beating yourself up enough over this that we don't need to!
You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!
I think you may find that Haldanes did engage the repo man. Because motorcycles have been such a high risk venture for the finance companies, the shops have ended up carrying the debt if the loan defaults. This has had the effect of the shops being a lot more careful as to who they offer finance to.
A complaint to the repo ombudsman wont get all your money back but you may get something to make you feel better.
Nothing wrong with buying something that has a debt attached, as long as you know. Instead of giving the guy the money you both wander down to the shop and you pay them or take over the finance or whatever.
"Nah mate, she's all clean. Check the numbers, you'll be right, I'm on a month's holiday so just keep in touch"
Ooookaaay ... so he lies about the security, is on a month's 'holiday' (out of work?)
The security that has been registered has to be cleared by whoever put it there. Ring them up and ask if there is actually any money owed before calling him a liar. He would have to be real dumb f** to invite you to check up if he thought he owed money
Good luck
Yepper a totally horrible place to be........God I can but imagine how traumatised I would be with a boffin demanding money from me when I was in my dressing gown........what a cock, and I know operating beyond his authority. There are papers that have to be produced before someone can "demand" to be paid.......(that may be worth a follow up)
In a perfect world why wouldn't you? To our shame it appears less and less likely that you can rely on anyones word....dont beat yourself up mate, there is no shame in believing in others!
Haldanes will have organised the repo agents..........20 years ago I was known to engage repo agents to go get for me because it has always been "Dealer To Pay" if a deal goes sour. You can not blame them for this thugs actions at all, they need to get the bike back or the money else they pay the bill. I wonder though if a call to the cops is in order, hearing Meon3 tel it this bloke coerced the funds without the proper paper work.........
Good luck with it guys.........what a mess!!!!!!!!!
