Yostumpy Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 hey simon , wats to stop you using this logo as yours, when everyone asks why its so similar but not the same everyone will be able to fill them in, literally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troddenmasses Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 However, the Equipe method might be more effective. If you didn't hear what they did when SR copied their extreme kit I'll tell you some time; its not for public consumption Oh come on - do tell. Any idea where we might get stickers made up. I really fancy that one from Moglite on the side of my 90. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yostumpy Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'll have one too for the 90, not 'too huge' now, ...............say 2inch x 2inch ? Nige now would that be a 2"x2" circle or a 4" dia square, look it was my idea and I say 4" dia is about right, without any verbals underneath, just the logo, or maybe add 'king of bling' , I like that. I'll have 2. how about a tally up to see wat the demand would be. tell you wat , I assume they will be cheap, £2.00 each say, how about simon selling the stickers, he'll be making money and mokery out of the scrapiron boyz, watdyuothink!!!!!!!!!!! as I said I'm a newbie but this is one happnin'forum.

bishbosh Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Sign me up!! 4" sqaure is fine by me. No strap line though - let the image do the talking. I'll have two please! Simon selling them is a good idea too, but we can't be seen to be materially supporting any one company to maintain the forum's independance. We'll just have to buy stuff from him instead!

western Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Good Idea - John.Do any of you have a copy of the new LRO? Apparently there is a write up on page 26? Si Si, copy emailed to X-eng address , I've just seen this thread & I'm 100% on your side , that sort of blatant copying stinks ,I've never dealt with SR & after reading this never will, hopefully they'll fold & disappear, I can understand how angry & p***ed off you must feel after doing all the hard work to get your 'Original/Genuine' item into the market place. all the best for future products Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 how about a option ? 4" or 2" and yep, no strap line doesn't need it does it ? Tad of profit for the Forum good idea too Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjojjas Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Sorry to read this Simon, I was following the disc brake with interest as I quite fancy one. When you lot sort out the stickers, post them on here and I'll have some too. I'm all for funding the forum and supporting Simon. ps, simon, do you sell stickers? x-eng ones? if not you could be missing a small market here. Scrapiron join my local Land Rover "specialist" at the top of the "will never use" pile.... Jas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveG Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 F***ing W**kers that have no f**king business ethics and are the scum of the earth that don't give a S**t about the enthusiast and just care about their F**king bottom line!! So there!!! Si, I hope you don't me advertising the fact!!! Devon 4x4 MudClub Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 Cheers for all the support - I never imagined you all cared so much! I still have a lead on the PTO & RR versions and the series version is only weeks away now. I don't think it will do me too much damage - it just feels like a bit of a kick in the teeth. It will hopefully just galvanize me in doing more stuff that treads more directly on their toes (while trying not to step on Jim M's toes as we seem to be walking a similar path at the moment). Will, do tell! I didn't know they did anything - it didn't get much publicity one way or another! Is it possible to render live Scorpions unable to sting you? - a silly thought just flashed through my mind I'd be up for the odd lobster sticker! It strikes me that this forum was to some extent born out of SR's hand up LRE's bottom - so there is a certain poetic justice! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR90 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Si, sorry to hear this materialised so soon and who knows maybe collectively we can kick up enough stink to stop them making anything out of this. Certainly I and it seems others on here will be boycotting their goods. Maybe we could spread the word to other forums too (LRO, LRA, P4x4, Devon4x4, ..) even if its just with a post to say Scrapiron has ripped of the Original X-Eng design. The stickers are a great idea. I'll have two and am happy to put some X-Eng ones on the truck too. Certianly worth speaking to Will/Equipe. And John has some sensible ideas definately worth following up. Speak to trading standards on their use of your image to advertise the rip offs. If LRO felt it was becomming embroiled in this it might be less comfortable carrying their ads. That would really start to hurt them. Who knows, we might find the Scorpion is called Wenzle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt80 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 As far a Ethics go i dont think they have any. The amount of probs mates of mine have had with them( Non landie trying to buy shocks for the pimp wagons) does make you wonder how they survive. The only real explanation is they have the backing of the mags as they spend ££££ on adverts. So B*ll**s to them iwas going to buy an extreme kit for my upcoming toy but i wont be now. Let me know about the stickers wheter from the forum or through Si i think its time someone trod on their toes back Rgds Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landrover598 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'd like a sticker too (but let me replace my springs before i fit the sticker ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmgemini Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'll have two stickers please. I have never bought anything from scrapiron and I will never buy anything from them. I eat rat poison mike i can cause trouble in an empty house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
