http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/489366


Above is the thread that i just opened the night before.

Now, i have friends who know viking and i know that he sells handphones (memory cards) etc.
My prices are lower simply because i use different strategy of earning less for some products to attract buyers in.

Today, i logged in and i found my thread to be closed .


For what?


"Suspicion of selling imitation MSPD"


What the heck??


I want to hear publicly from him as to why viking closed down my thread.

1) On what grounds do you deem my product to be fake?

- you neither asked nor communicated with me before making a decision

2) By doing this, you have defaced my reputation as an honest trader. i have traded with so many people in the few years i've been in lowyat and have never had any problems or stopped deals.


i think this is an irresponsible, immature and unprofessional action made by viking.
i don't care whether you're a moderator on a *scary music* forum (wow.)
i know i did nothing wrong, because all my items are from one of the largest suppliers in Malaysia and i can easily prove it.



NOW - I WANT TO HEAR WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

viking, any idea why are you doing so?

looks like viking has already become a famous thread-closer TE

yeah a thread closer that shows no level of rational judgement or fairness

Edited: Also, do you have any data/proof to your accuse? Please share it with us.

I don't have stock with me because i don't stock up, i take stock when people order.

I take it from Power Cellular, has a shop in lowyat.

It's NOT imitation. EVEN if it was imitation, he doesn't have the right to just close it down without investigating!

your thread was closed not deleted. If you are absolutely positive that you are selling genuine products at your prices, you are always welcome to provide conclusive proof and your thread will be reopened. (if you don't have stock, don't 'claim' its original unless your stock comes directly from Sony)

We have a strict policy with regards to fake memory sticks being sold as genuine. Your prices alone are enough reason for the thread to be put on hold pending an investigation.

Do not expect (or demand) that a moderator has to contact you to clear up the confusion. Did you even bother contacting or clarifying with the TE/Mod that closed your thread before demanding an explanation here?

i PMed him and miss called him quite a number of times, se7en.

like i said, however much i want to earn from my products is my call.
if i said in the top part of my thread that you can claim warranty at power cellular (located in lowyat), wouldn't that mean that it's authentic and original??


se7en - mods are not gods. if he has the right to close my thread down without investigation or rational judgement, then i have the right to demand an explanation publicly.

you've got a very big forum here, i agree and therefore, rules are tight. but that is NO justification for some careless moderator who closes without first contacting the seller.

i listed my number there for EVERYONE TO SEE. give me a call. no initiative from the moderator??

It's no point you have missed call someone and hope he/she called you back. BTW, call him in person to clarify this matter rather than wait he calls you. In fact, you are demanding him for explanation not he MUST answer you...

Thats my 2 cents

dude, i called him more than 7 times . each time it rang till it hit the 'the number is busy' voice tone.

miss called meaning i called him and he didn't answer = hence that leaves a miss call on his phone

edit for correction

first of all, grammatically, "i have the RIGHT to demand.." is the proper usage.

secondly - i wonder what sort of investigation he did - if he closed my thread and didn't bother to pm me about it? nor call me?

that's one heck of an investigative effort

You didn't stated you called him 7 times with no answer.... Missed Call and Call without answer is 2 different thing.

fair enough, point taken

SONY
512mb - RM45
1Gb - RM70
2Gb - RM95
4Gb - RM162

at 1st i also feel that viking is sht around, but i when i saw your price...wow...

hey i sell to resellers, ok?

this case is interesting. hope that viking will clear himself here and also spikeee will prove that his product is genuine.

ataris, like i said, i don't keep stock. i only buy upon orders.
i wonder if you guys are helping me answer the question : if a supplier/distributor sells in lowyat, doesn't that mean that the shop CAN'T be selling imitation products?

so spikeee, how bout buy 1 and tell us about it, or just take a sample. ur honour is at stake here.
