I was thinking the same.
On a personal note there is no way I would spend nearly £400 on a used pushchair without inspecting it first.0 -

Knew it had to happen sooner or later - kangaroo court in session much?
Did I try to help the situation out? I think so but in this world of judge and jury, I guess that counts for nothing. I got less of a problem with QQO, who had their own view, than the peanut gallery with nothing to add.
Glad to see group members that have to comment on another's comment for the sake of commenting and pot stirring. Useful time and effort to add to the thread.0 -

Not making any assumptions; just an observation :A0 -

In all honesty, I have no idea who that is. People comment. Its a forum! And as long as they're not trollers (as some of the commenting members are), then why does it matter if it is the first or only post?0 -
Sugarplums last forum activity was 9:21 on the 8th. She's not been back at all since then, so hasn't seen anything other than queen of the worlds first post.
That's a shame when she's offering so much support.
I did come originally to offer advice but the OP had been given the same advice I was going to offer already. No point in repeating.0 -
Well my observation is that no one seems to comment when forum members accuse an OP who has asked for help or when other members completely dis them and say that they are rude (what did you expect when she's being accused?!)
My other observation is that this forum is notorious for a bad reputation of cliquey members and biased edits.
So I commented to support a member who was feeling attacked on here - being accused of trying to pull something then others jumping on board to support it - so she wouldn't feel alone.
So I ask - if my observations have no basis in reality then why are there more comments on me supporting the person than there are of people who leave lines like "There are hundreds of buyers who try the same trick over and over again" (fairly presumptuous and quite an accusation of a stranger - glad they don't work for a court) or "....lost on you" (and how is this helpful to anyone other than to stroke their ego/(?)).
And I love all the wthanking (sic) that goes on to the, what I can only term as, belligerent members.
And this thread, in which I've tried to support someone, has gone waaayy past the point as I think she's had the answer she needs but we're drawing it out and jumping on that suspicion van again! So enjoy and maybe I'll find you on another thread. Love and peace to you all!0
