BEWARE Crook trading as 2007marine-12vmarine on eBay
Also known as Walton Industries
On August 26 I purchased 6 deck fittings from this shyster on eBay. On the 9th September I emailed to enquire if they had been sent out yet. They replied, my one and only reply from them, that they had been sent out on the 28th Aug.
I Started a Paypal claim, he gave Paypal a tracking No. a week later. Yesterday a 10 cent coin arrived in a tiny jiffy bag at my door under the auspices of this tracking number, fortunately I opened this in the presence of the postman, as he had commented that he thought it was an empty bag. I then had to change my Paypal claim to a not as described claim, who tell me to send the wrong item back. What a farce!

I think 'crook' sounds about right. At least here you can be sure your post will remain in place for others to see...

I must admit that my experience with this company is a bit different to yours. I have now ordered 3 times from them and each time the goods have arrived within a couple of days with no problem.
I think this business is being pretty small minded if they think they can get away with things like this anymore. The world is now a very small place with boards like this to name and shame. Its like running a restaurant, one recommendation from a good meal normally creates 5 new customers, a bad report loses 20+!!

Send them a link to this board with your post and make sure you tell them how many members we have.

I am pleased to see the forum used to warn members and have trouble getting my head around the logic of boards that do not allow it.

Great result but the company did not resolve it and deserve to be shamed.
