    Getting harassed on the Bird site

    Some people. I'm getting pounded with PMs on the Bird by a guy who demands I delete my comment that his "original" leather steering wheel isn't really original.

    I don't think he's happy with me.

    Really no surprise over at that trailer park.

    Does he believe it’s original?

    Hard to say. He either believes it is, or hopes that no one will call him on it like I did.

    Thing is, it's obvious as can be that it's got a Wheelskins cover laced on. I can't believe he thinks it's original. But hope springs eternal, I guess...

    And now he has started a new post that leaves out the word 'original' but left the price the same. All this to avoid my unpleasant truth...

    Come on, man. What's not to like for $400.
    Does anyone know if it's rare?

    I wonder if he's going to jump all over him, too?

    Hmmm, I was tempted to touch the tar baby at Pelican with a comment about his leather wrapped wheel but it looks like someone beat us to the punch and now the ad has been pulled.

    That's apparently his plan, now. Any time someone questions it, he kills the thread and starts a new one. Now he has added it to a multi-part ad. https://forums.pelicanparts.com/pors...arts-01-a.html
