U2u sent for the basiks board

BeamerBob - 3-7-2012 at 08:33 PM

No longer interested.

van - 3-7-2012 at 10:00 PM

I might need to pick up the 8m to replace one I destroyed.

Wolfpaklv - 3-7-2012 at 10:10 PM

From what I have been told these kites are not for sale. These currently belong to Peter Lynn Products.

These are stock of ripsessionkites kiteboarding shop
which were bought and paid for.

They are used too

The VLOP demo fleet has nothing to do with what I'm selling.

Tell me about the viper 2.6 and what exactly is a pro bag?

OmniSmurfZ - 4-7-2012 at 04:12 PM

Pro Bag - http://www.coastalwindsports.com/servlet/Detail?no=579

Been in u2u with rip about a pro bag and the 8m charger since the day this was posted!

Bigbear97e - 4-7-2012 at 04:15 PM

pro bag is a big "duffle" or stuff bag that can carry multiple kites and gear as far as I know.

Viper is the predecessor of the Viper-S and are best known as buggy engines. 2.6 would be a high wind engine ... I believe only difference between viper and viperS is the "S" has a refined/streamlined bridle probably intended to reduce drag... I do not believe they changed the basic AR or sail design with the newer S.

mougl - 4-7-2012 at 04:29 PM

Dead on. The only changes from Viper to Viper S are colors and a more refined bridal. A/R, shape, cell count, etc. remain the same.

Scudley - 4-7-2012 at 05:23 PM

The products listed for sale in this post are either the property of Peter Lynn Products as Brian says or the property Ripsession Kiteboarding. In either case, it is a commercial sale and violates the rules of the forum.
This topic should be removed.
These products may or may not contain bad karma. Buying them may affect yours.

OmniSmurfZ - 4-7-2012 at 05:41 PM

But these items for those prices arn't listed on the site so it's not really commerical? The first kite I ever bought was listed on this site, scout II 4m, but it was from dakitez, it was a demo kite.

AFIK people in the biz are only allowed to sell their personal gear, but I just read here. Maybe Sam knows?
Was the kite you bought from dakitez in a state of disputed ownership? Didn't think so. I believe Brian to be acting on behalf of Europeans from the USA trying to get kites from someone in Canada. This is not going to be the easiest situation for the three parties to sort out. Don't you think it would be best if we all refrain from the deals until it is?

S

OmniSmurfZ - 4-7-2012 at 08:07 PM

Well I wasn't referring to the ownership discussion at all, just the commercialized selling. And no it was a demo kite of the dakitez store that I bought. But yea I think rip is waiting until this is all figured out as well anyways as he hasn't u2ud me back about it. I wouldn't want a 'stolen' item too.

Agreed and patients.

BEC - 4-7-2012 at 08:20 PM

I wish to remain neutral in this.... forget inquiry about viper 2.6 till issues on forum are worked out.
Thanks.

Kind of off topic, but because almost no one uses their real name here, Who is Brian??

nocando - 4-7-2012 at 08:24 PM

wolpaklv

BeamerBob - 4-7-2012 at 08:40 PM

Brian Holgate is Wolfpaklv.

ripsessionkites - 4-7-2012 at 09:22 PM

Lol, funny how the people involved don't have a single clue what is going on but love to put in their two cents.

I'm selling my gear that's it

None of the items are belonging to VLOP and was all used by me in my quiver bag.

Again I have nothing to prove to anyone. Bash all you want I don't care.

If you have to know cause you're nosy. The money is going to VLOP and also to pay for my lawyer to fight to get back my kids which I haven't seen in 9 months. Someone is using my kids as a bargaining chip to get money out of me.

There its in the open. Judge all you want.

Just tryin to sell my kites.

KsKiteAddict - 4-7-2012 at 10:23 PM

You rate high in my book, ripsessionkites. As fun as kiting is and as much as I value all my gear, kids and family will always come first. I am sincerely sorry that "someone" is using your kids in some kind of leverage play. Wish I had the kind of income that would allow me to just send you your asking prices for all the gear and let you keep the gear as well. Good luck in this legal chess game and may you eventually win!

tridude - 5-7-2012 at 05:18 AM

best of luck Rip and hope to see you on the water at Sullivans or JIBE one day.......................:smilegrin::lol::duh:

geokite - 5-7-2012 at 09:04 AM

Point to my post: Use your name, so its not an "in crowd" forum. Unless you want it to be an "in crowd" forum.

gabe - 5-7-2012 at 09:24 AM

I wish you all the luck with both your legal battlle, and the sales to get the money.
I will also welcome you on the "water side", we might can go together and fly foils on the water one day.
cheers
Gabe

No horse in this race..... disinterested observer.


From the READ BEFORE POSTING - no commercial promotions! sticky....

Shop owners may, as private members, list items for sale as long as the rules stated here and on our rules page (regarding commercial posts) are followed.

From the [url=]Rules[/url] page:
2. Commercial Use:

2.1. This forum is NOT a commercial market place. Do not use this forum to advertise commercial businesses or services, link to commercial web sites, or list promotions or products for sale by dealer or manufacturer. Store owners may post private party sales in the For Sale category - items must be listed with prices. Additionally, we ask that discussions are conducted on the forum (in thread or U2U) and that the author adds "SOLD" to the end of the thread title once the sale is complete.


With that said, in the past retailers have listed demo products for sale. While this might thread the line, I think it has been accepted if the items were lists below dealer cost (no profit) and it's clear that that's not the retailer's sole "raison d'être" with regards to the forum.

If you feel the original post is inappropriate for whatever reason, it would probably minimize the overall forum strife quotient to just use the report thread and leave the final arbitration to Bob.

Hope everything turns out well for everyone.... especially the wee ones.

And thus ends my sole contribution to this thread.


ATB,
Sam

Suds after thuds - 5-7-2012 at 11:48 AM

I sent a u2u about the basik board. I'd like to contribute by buying it. Wish you all the best of luck. --Peter

I totally agree! Wish everyone would display their name. Better to stand up for what you say rather than hiding behind a user name.

Thanks for posting your stuff and good luck with all that it involves.

pyro22487 - 6-7-2012 at 07:01 AM

Same as rocfighter David and fellow kite addict.

alasdair macleod - 6-7-2012 at 10:31 AM

I'm a kite addict too!
Rip good luck with your legal case!
Your gear looks great wish I wasn't half way round world from you
I'd be very temped your kites!

carltb - 6-7-2012 at 03:48 PM

hi my names carl and ive got gas,.............. oh wait that should be wind.

i also like turtles!

shaggs2riches - 6-7-2012 at 09:23 PM

Was all of this really necessary????? I like this forum because there never seems to be this kind of behavior. I have no involvement with any of the mentioned parties, but feel someone should say it. Rip has been a very helpful and active member of this forum for a very long time, putting out a lot for the full benefit of this sport. Whether or not there is any issue to be resolved with this gear is something that should not be handled in this matter. Especially to be bullying a member to discuss his personal life in order to defend himself. If anyone here ever had an issue with everyone going by their user names then I'm sure all you had to do was open a thread stating what's your handle and most everyone would openly give it. Lots of people on this forum have formed great friendships with each other, so its only given that those people would converse with each other more than others. But this is honestly one of the most open and friendly forums out there, and stuff like this does nothing at holding up its reputation. Rip I wish you luck at straightening out your matters; and, hope that whatever is going on in you life that you can get back to doing what you love.


Colton

rocfighter - 7-7-2012 at 05:10 AM

Shaggs I agree. I just thought it might lighten things up a bit when I posted my real name.
The actual issue at hand has gotten way out of hand and this should be settled else where. I am sure there must be an easy way to find out who this stuff truly belongs to. I have no idea what ways those would be. And as I said I was just trying to lighten things up a bit. This thread had gotten to harsh.

Thanks, Colton. You are right on.

Look, if anyone on here has an issue with my personal life, bring it on. Mano a mano. Putting it out on a public forum is weak and cheap.

PKF is a special place. I hope we keep it that way.

Todd

OmniSmurfZ - 7-7-2012 at 10:23 AM

Agreed... I have been on many many forums, some since 2002 where I have around 40 posts. Just because I don't particularly like the community, but it has some great articles/news posted. But this is a great forum and community. I hope everything gets resolved with you Rip, #@%$#!ty situation.

Another way to view the point to my first post in this thread is I'm tired of forum members referring to so-and-so, and I have no idea who they are. And I don't want to go refer to some old thread to look it up; just put your name with your signature.

Obviously lots of you know each other by first name basis outside of this forum. I know some in the same way. But if you are going to have a public forum for the public to read, don't make it a puzzle for the rest of us.

This has NOTHING to do with Rip's situation with PL. This particular topic just brought up an issue I have.

bobsalinas - 8-7-2012 at 05:43 PM

OK, Ricci screwed up here and there but jeez let him sell his stuff and move on.
I think he is paying a dear price for his actions whatever they might be.
My$0.02 and I use my real name!

The question is not about retribution for Richard. Those issues appear to be before the courts and not for us to decide. It is about whether the issue of ownership brought up by Brian has been resolved. I am not saying Richard's word is worth less than Brian's word, but you seem to be saying Brian's word is worth less than Richards. Why not wait until the issue is resolved before buying? If Richard needs to do this fast, it is an impetus for him to resolve the issue in an expedient manner.
What does Richard's legal, family, or financial situation have to do with who owns these kites? Are you saying Peter Lynn Products should bite the bullet because Richard has problems? Is there a reason they should pay the price too?
