I get it, I really do. When you have a lot of volume some customers can fall through the cracks even though you try your hardest not to let them. Its just a shame because Im pretty well known on here and when I post a review or any thread at all, a lot people will view it.

Many other vendors have copied my design but BMS is the only one that I'm aware of so far that used my pictures in their ads. Here's an early reference (2010) to my easy to install clutch stop. I'm sure there are other threads somewhere. If there was something similar out, I haven't seen it. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=423172 And here's the thread on the clutch stop you just posted....looks like it's from 2011. That vendor has nice looking pictures and was smart enough to put their name on it so no one else could use them. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=579389 Last edited by JetBlackE46; 10-18-2012 at 03:27 PM.. |

So now you say you invented this bolt with washer in 2010. OK. In the first post you said it has been several years since you invented this? I typed in "clutch stop" in this search screen in the upper right hand side of this page and I found someone who is offering to sell the same easy to install clutch stop in 2009 and over 100 possible customers asking to purchase it from him??? http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...30&postcount=1 |

First both these vendors are selling a product that is literally attached to the bottom of chair legs to keep your chair from sliding along the floor. I can detach 4 of these from my chair right now. Is it ethical to charge $10 for this part and advertise it as some sort of engineered BMW performance part? I think the ethical thing to do as a fellow BMW owner would be to let people know they can buy this part at a hardware store and attach it to their car themselves. That post I showed above shows that someone else thought of the same idea in 2009 and recruited around 100 people who voted in his poll saying they would be interested in purchasing this part from him. Was it ethical for both these vendors to take his idea and run with it? The vendor who made this post has links to his auction sales site advertising for business in a trumped up negative review of another vendor who just happens to be selling the exact same part. Is that ethical? The vendor who made this post claims that bms copied his photos but then when you look at the auction links they are clearly not his photos. So either he has made this whole thing up to get people to click this fake review and see his for sale link or he requested bms to change the photos and they complied and removed them. Either way this thread is pretty sketchy. This guy posting has made thousands of dollars ripping off bmw owners and bms and others have made who knows how many thousands more running the same scam. I think the whole thing is a riot watching everyone defend one side or the other. Take a step back and take a deep breath. These guys are fighting over friggin chair stops. |

True. But a hot rod chair stop. Never had an Audi. My parents never believed in foreign cars. Even though my mom is from Munich. But now they own nothing but. I bought an F30 back in February. I had an E90 I bought new and thought it was the berries. I drove an F30 one day while gettting my oil changed and my wife loved it. Not so much love for the E90. When the wife is happy, everyone's happy.

Look at the first post again. BMS has changed their listings because they got caught red handed. Does that make sense? Look at the archived listings and you'll see what their listings looked like when they were using my pictures. Show me a picture of your chair with 4 clutch stops. That sounds like a pretty cool design. |

You have then turned it into 'caught red handed' BS. You asked, he looked into, agreed with you, removed them. Case closed, Sherlock. |
