We were laughing about this last weekend.
Basically, the IP was a dumbass and instead of coming from a position of "Hey, I messed up, can you work with me", he went full-on attitude... and chose to do it on a forum with people who know and respect the merchant he was ham-handedly attempting to lambast.

Hilarity ensues.

Got through 4 or 5 pages yesterday. I loved when the owner and his wife came on and owned his ass.

Had he posted that he needed help asap and could anyone reach out to him there would hav ebeen a much different outcome and this guy wouldnt be the latest laughing stock of the internet

This. exactly. The Mummies are two of the coolest, most laid-back people I know. Until you act the fool. Especially if you cuss out Mrs Mummy. There is no protection from the hellfire that will rain down from that type of shenanigans

I have ordered a few things from them without any issues, but heard they were/are a good company and are helpful with any problems.

i am fine with going online to shred a company if they do you wrong but this guy screwed up on many levels, so he deserves every bit of flaming he gets, an dthats bad with all the squiddlies on that site.

MotoMummy... they're good people. I especially love that they are down just a bit down the road from me.

Shit hurts my eyes. You can certainly tell they're a VS forum. Glad my ABP was enabled.

The ads covering the bottom 1" of any pictures added to a post is a nice touch.

I like how the guy doesn't even know how to replace his own sprocket.

That place is known for stupidity. But then, Gixxers do attract the "Jersey Shore" type of crowd.....
