Max have you shrunk???? you after newish or older style jobbies?

Excuse me?

ATTENTION:

I BELIEVE THE REAL HILARY STONE REGISTERED UNDER THE NAME HILARYSTONE WITHOUT A SPACE

see my previous post with links. the person above is an imposter seeking love and attention. give them neither.
sorry if i missed something.

Thanks for the heads up Coppithat but its quite simple to find out really.

If you've got an issue with what i said Mr Stone or my thread is untruthful in any way i'll be glad to discuss, "the rules of the jumble story" with you at the next bike jumble, i'll be there for sure as you would expect and if i'm not for any reason i'll be at the following one so you'll have ample opportunity to discuss it with me.

What i described are factual events that occured,if you cant remember them than Ripley and Knepworth should jog your memory. I have no doubt in my mind you know who I am, if that still fails i'm the oriental looking fella and there arent many of them at bike jumbles!

I wont loose any sleep over it so if its an imposter or if its the real deal and i wont be continually replying on the forum. I've said my bit, and think i've said enough.

Looking forward to Kidderminster.

I've had first had experience with Hilary Stone at bike jumbles as i too get up at the crack of dawn to delve into the jumblers treasures. I've got no qualms with competing with Mr Stone for bits but his lack of decency and dignity leaves a lot to be desired.

There is no doubt he is an expert in his field and a well connected one, fair dues with his experience and his knoweldge he commands his respect and some have said that he is forthgiving with advice wen asked. I've bought from him in the past myself and had no issues i was happy with the transaction.

However he has tried to steam roller me and my colleague on various occasions and i've had first hand experience of him trying to snatch a frame out of my hand when i've been in conversation with the vendor. He has also pushed his way into a vendors car whilst i've already expressed my interest in frames we have discussed and have been stood waiting whilst the vendor organises himself and not wanting to be rude, only to be overlooked when hilary shuffled up and into the car and helped himself. When i asked the vendor how much he was after for the frame Hilary bellowed that they were sold, and that "they were the rules of the jumble" even though they quite clearly werent as no price had been discussed and the vendor had said they were available.

The vendor sold them infront of me and though apologetic turned and said he had experienced the same with Hilary. Cheers mate, sod all i can do if the seller has no decency either and yes maybe i should HTFU but i never thought i'd have to go to jumbles and impose myself on these old boys and start riffling my way through their stuff before they've unpacked, harrassing them like some kind of vulture but being polite as i was brought up to be has got me no where.

I understand its business, early bird catches the worm and all that. Theres a few bob to be made, its not gonna make me a millionare but I get there early enough and often before him i'll be damned if i drive all over the place to be shafted like that. There are others there who do similar i've met most of the usual suspects some even from this forum and have no qualms with them, first come first serve thats fair enough but mark my words if it happens again you'll hear about it, because next time i'm gonna fuck him up.
