Thread Here

Although its not a nice thought I can only deduce from no communication that I have been ripped off for my wedding bits that I sold in good faith at a much reduced price for a mumsnetter.

I also out of the goodness of my stupid heart sent her the necklace I wore on my day for her soemthing borrowed.

I cant "believe" this is intentional as she was so grateful in the beginning.

But countless and emails and threads on here have turned nothing up

Will MN be able to do anything?

I wouldn't ring her again, fs is too nice and will be fobbed off again. Send the police round, they may not be able to do anything, but it takes some of the responsibility off you and she knows that you will not just forget about it either. Might stop her from doing the same to someone else.

Ummm, not sure how responsive the police will be.

nutcracker · 14/02/2006 13:39

Can someone else not ring ??? I'd volunteer but i'd be pants at it.

don't think the police would be interested tbh, it was sent to lend at a wedding which is in July (I think), fs has received the money for the other goods so they would say where is the crime?

Rhubarb · 14/02/2006 13:40

But what would you say? And how effective would a phone call be? fs has phoned her once already at work. A visit would be better. Whereabouts does she live? Perhaps a brave Mumsnetter would be willing to visit?

pashmina · 14/02/2006 14:23

have just read this whole thread and links - I really hope you get your necklace back...SC sounds really dodgy! fingers crossed for you

jambuttie · 14/02/2006 14:24

did you ring her fs???

MistressMary · 14/02/2006 14:36

You have an address don't you?

HellyBelly · 14/02/2006 15:43

oh mate

jambuttie · 14/02/2006 21:30

I would ring for you FS no problem!!!!!

I think it is awful that she cntinues to ignore you, after you being so generous too hun

galaxy · 14/02/2006 21:43

Blimey - how can someone live with themselves being publicly outed like this and still not doing anything about it.

sunchowder · 14/02/2006 21:46

FS, this is horrible I agree. Be thankful that she has paid you. It is not really fair to say cut your losses as the necklace is sentimental. Clearly SC is overwhelmed with something right now, I couldn't possibly begin to explain why she isn't being honest with you and telling you she never made it to the post office. I can't imagine how frustrating this is to go though every day from your end. If you haven't already sent her an email to follow-up, that is what I would do at this pointeven though it might go into her "junk" folder like the last time. I hope she sends your necklace back to you....try your best not to be upset. You did something really, really nice for her and Karma will take care of youbelieve it!

HellyBelly · 15/02/2006 10:37

Resign yourself it's not in a parcel with your address on it.
I hope I am wrong though.

getbakainyourjimjams · 15/02/2006 10:52

SC isn't in northern Ireland is she? There's a postal strike- we've been waiting for a cheque posted 10 days ago

HellyBelly · 15/02/2006 10:52

Almost a week late - not looking too good Sorry SC has done this to you! Have you decided what you are going to do?

sparklymieow · 15/02/2006 10:53

i believe that SC is in luton.

popsycalindisguise · 15/02/2006 10:53

sc is in luton

sparklymieow · 15/02/2006 10:56

I have to take my parents to luton airport next month, but i am too chicken to knock on someone's door and ask for the necklace or I would...

LovelyBigMuvverers · 15/02/2006 13:09

Very odd that SC posted full of apologies earlier on this thread, sent FS the money she owed, then has not bothered to send the necklace.

SC, are you really not bothered by behaving like this? It's Just Not On.

Blu · 15/02/2006 13:30

Just call and remind her to post it?

Somanykiddies · 15/02/2006 13:42

Put here number on here and we'll all call to remind her!

popsycalindisguise · 15/02/2006 14:57

just to remind her to post it
