That sucks. I bought two of the Shell Oil stickers from this same guy, and never had a problem. I had to email him about an address change, and he promptly responded and was very congenial. oh well, i hate that for you.

Try asking for Andy on:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Cameltrophy/

He used to be fairly active on there but I have not seen a post from him in a little bit. Ask if anyone knows what happened to him. That group is usally in the know of what other members are up to.

Hope you get it resolved.

Its the principle of the matter..
I would be posting as well if I felt I had been taken regardless of how much I got taken for.

oh ...I agree big time

but I still think its funny how worked up people get over stickers

you read stories on here of guys that wait forever for parts getting the run around and they stay pretty cool.

but when its stickers they get really pissed

remember when people got all over kyle because they ran outa stickers to send with the videos?

stickers...lol

I've bought from Andy before earlier in the year and didn't really have any problems although it did take a very long time to get my order. Probably at least a month, if not more. I think they were sent via some type of UK bulk mail rate or something. He was also on his way out of the UK for about 5 weeks and I think he travels frequently so it is possible that is why he hasn't responded.

Thom, what's even stranger is why would anybody want Camel Trophy decals on his very non-Camel Trophy Discovery?

Rob, you need a European front license plate. I've always loved those. And then add some LRSV decals for good measure.

i have a real deal australian plate john, does that count? it even says "solihul"

you are right i need one of them's LRSV too. but it will clash with my grean paint and rusty bumper.

I thought the only cool sticker to put on your rig was a D-web sticker.

I'd be worked up too if some fucker took $30 from me. I'd be so worked up that I'd hunt the motherfucker down and tear his throat out.

RD,
I think you should paint that aussie tag red and nail it on the back of that lumber...looks like it might stick out a bit far. Who knows, that tag could even save you the money from a ticket. Think of it as an 'investment'. --lol

Mark

P.S. You guys are a friggin riot, always crackin my *ss up, thanks!!

I'll send him to ya in a bodybag. I did manage to peel it off and keep him intact.

As for the harness, as stated in numerous emails, I sent it a 10 days ago with ample postage. We'll see if the postal service can cough it up this year.

peter, i truely beleived in my heart that there was a conspiracy in place to prevent that harness from getting to me.

so , today i bought one at best buy... i would have done it sooner if i knew they stocked them!

i am ultra chilled now. when yours comes i'll throw it in the bag and take it back to best buy for a refund :)
