My Ride: OLD RIDE- 2004 Titanium Silver Metallic 545I, Sports Package, 6 Speed Manual Transmission, Premium Sound, Cold Weather Package, Folding Rear Seats.
NEW RIDE- 2005 Silver Gray Metallic 545I, Sports package, 6 Speed manual Transmission, Premium Sound, Navigation, Cold Weather Package, Folding Rear Seats, Heated Rear Seats and Park Distance Control.
Why would my post about problems I am experiencing with the online vendor Umintaz be moved to the Classified section. I am not selling anything. Let me get this straight, if I complain about a BMW Dealer's service on "E60 Discussion", its ok but I can't complain about a vendor who refuses to deliver on goods I purchased more than 3 weeks ago?????? A vendor who in response to my post calls me a "JERK".
Is there a priveleged class of vendors that are beyond criticism? Am I missing something? Is there a special relationship between this site's
administrator and Umnitaz? cause I can't see any other way of justifying removal of my post from the General Discussion" to the classifieds. I have been a member since 2004 and my member number is 931 so I don't have hundreds of posts. I am your average Joe (relative to this forum) who thought that there is no censorship on "E60 Forums" when it comes to posting legitimate complaints about online vendors who take advantage of their customers and respond by calling their customer names??
Read my post in "classifieds" and tell me if I am wrong????

It doesn't really matter what channel it gets categorized in my man. We all see it and feel your pain. Be mad at the seller, not the guys that do a really great job of running this site.

I'm very sorry to hear about your problem.
But I don't see why you are mad at E60 Administrator. This is a E60 Forum, for people talk good and bad things related with E60. This this is not a "Umintaz" Forum, so I can understand why the administrator move the post to classified.

Seriously, we have had our threads moved whether we thought it was justified or not. You just got to roll with the punches.

Whatever do you mean? 
E = electronic. Thus, e-popcorn is electronic popcorn! Anyhow, let's not get too off topic on this matter at hand.

Sometimes, admins make mistakes too, but they may have a reason for doing it. Just PM them or something. But this sort of thread goes into the Sites Comments and Suggestions Forum, not here. Thats for sure. Well we feel your pain. I would not take the name calling lightly tho. Its just wrong. No matter the situation, name calling is just not right around here. Wouldn't everyone agree?
