Anyone know or use Lambretta leeds?

People slag off the far east for ripping things off but Lambretta Leeds don't feel they need to be in the far east to think they can get away with ripping off other peoples products and advertising them as their own.

Beware of cheap fake copies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a look as I can't remember where I bought mine from but it's significantly different to mine, looks to be better engineered than mine in the way it adjusts. Mine has counter sunk set screws and a bevelled slot. Who's design is it?

This is the individual called joei1942 on eBay, i believe.
I bought some legshield badges from him a few years back. They seemed fine, but when i was curving them to fit the legshields I could hear and feel the chrome plate cracking. (I've had the same thing happen before with badges bought elsewhere)
So i contacted him and asked 'could he get the manufacturer to pre-curve the badges before chroming' His response was to throw a hissy fit tell me to buy then somewhere else and immediately banned me from his eBay site. I'm still banned to this day.
A totally OTT reaction to a simple request. His loss. I had often bought the odd parts, forgotten for a resto, from him.

He's just a cheapo Ebay dealer who sells Far East tat. Buy Cheap Buy Twice. Not worth bothering with.

Standard practice to sideline you when you complain, especially when you can't go into a shop and complain face to face.

We are here to provide the best services possible but in doing so we will not tolerate abusive or aggressive behaviour from our customers.
