WobblyCat would be a great choice if he's available.

I've actually sent letters to RioCan regarding the matters, but they never respond. A few friends approached management at Timmies and it's clear they want us there; I know the folks at Teriyaki Experience also love having us around... the security/police enforcement is not something they've...

The KC scene has been a bit of a mess lately, mostly due to RioCan (the property management) having their security company, LK Protection, harassing people on the property. They've recently put up signs enforcing a 2-hour parking limit, as well as no parking from 12am-7am -- including in the...

Last year I was part of a group ride of 40 bikes for an organized (sort of, lol) meet, and one of our stops was the "Cool Scoops" ice cream shop just around the corner from the Belfountain coffee shop at Forks of the Credit. We tried to park as organized/compact as possible in the lot, and just...

Bike is officially sold and gone. Thanks for all the input and support folks! Now to go curl up in a corner and disappear until I get another. :P

I've written details into the bill of sale/contract including all of the deposit & payment details, so if anything goes south I'll have the signed papers indicating what happened. Hopefully this guy isn't that much of a POS, but you never know, seeing as he's already been caught BSing me in a...

LMAO, yes you did. And now it's time for me to go back to sleep. Good night everyone, may visions of money transfers dance in your heads.

Yeah, that's just the annoyance in the situation talking. Obviously I'll honour the original deal, but the guy is lucky I'm not an ******* about it. I suspect some people would be.

WOOOOOOOOW. Just freaking wow. So the buyer has the nerve to email, text and call me at 9 sharp this morning after ALL this crap, suddenly claiming he actually managed to get a line of credit to repair his car, and took the balance owing for the bike out so he could now go through with the...

After literally spending most of the past 14 hours bouncing emails back and forth explaining why I'm keeping his deposit, I think I'm finally fricking done. This guy wasted my entire day begging for money back and all he really accomplished was to piss me off to the point of not caring anymore...

In this case, the buyer actually offered the $500 deposit before I even had the chance to ask for it. So he certainly had the funds available at the time, at least.... however... I also agree with this. If I give someone a deposit, it's because I'm committed and I expect them to hold the...

I totally get that, believe me I do. But imagine if it were a dealership/bike shop and he'd made the same decision. In their eyes, it's a signed agreement and deposits are non-refundable, even if it was a full payment. I'm not going to lie, I don't feel good about it, but I also don't feel...

I actually did too, that's the worst part. I think I'm keeping the deposit... I would like to think people can be trusted, stuff happens yeah... but if I were in his shoes I would understand if the seller chose to keep the deposit as well. When I bought this bike I made a deposit of the same...

Deposit was $500 and the agreement was made this Saturday that just passed. He offered that I should keep $100 and e-transfer the rest back.

. . . (( EDIT: Buyer has since come up with the money; bike is sold and gone to its new home. thanks for the responses though! )) . . . So I had arranged this weekend to sell my bike privately, and accepted a deposit toward the sale of the bike. Buyer has the VIN# and a written agreement of...
