Get it off Alibaba for $0.05, don’t fall for the online “performance” shops selling them for $50.00

No. I'm just helping members

He provides a good service with the badges and stuff.

But if you want basic China stuff why not just order from aliexpress which is where he gets it from?

Didn't realise it was a crime to help out members.

Are you Nicks paid promoter?

Yes mate, of course I am…

Just seemed odd to be slagging off his stuff on cutters too, without acknowledging he seems to do quite a bit more to refinish things to a much better quality than the standard stuff

Anyhow, up to you mate “help” away

Didn't you sell lots of parts from Alibaba on the M3 Forum on Facebook yourself? At a massive markup yourself?



Don't be a hypocrite - if you really have a problem with someone, at least be man enough to acknowledge it rather than actively trying to sabotage someone

Can't imagine why you'd have a problem with Nick so much.

I've bought stuff from nick myself so how am I sabotaging him? Doesn't sound the right way to ruin someone when you are supporting their business by buying their product.

You actively saying not to buy from Nick and go to Alibaba.

Did you suggest people did the same to you when you were selling your DRL Modules?

Or when you were selling the standard Magnetic paddles for £175?

Hypocrite.

Lol I assume you drive a white m4 with alibaba parts.

Stop crying as I can see you just made an account just to comment on this post and cause problems.

As I previously said, Nick produces good stuff which is customised but the OP asked for a button which costs pennies and got linked the same item which is 20x higher.

If you have an issue with me saving future members some money then give your head a wobble and no I didn't sell paddles for £175.

I have a San Marino Blue F80. So you assume wrong?

Have been a reader of the forum for a while. I've bought some badges from Nick. He's a really nice young lad trying to make a business.

You did sell paddles for £175. But let's not let the truth get in the way.

You can say what you want but I've seen you post on the FaceBook pages several times selling Alibaba parts and find it hypocritical you calling out Nick here.

I can list some paddles for £2000 does that mean I've sold them? Stop making assumptions.

Stop being a brand snob as I can clearly see it's affected you that much because you made a profile just to comment here.

Anyhow anyone who reads this thread can see my intentions were good. It just happened to be that the guy above posted nicks website. It could have been Fred's website and I would have done the same.

Also stop putting words in my mouth. I didn't call out anyone

Not going to post on this thread anymore if you have something to address just message me privately. No point ruining a thread
