Will look at the replies in order of receipt and convenience (for me).
As highlandcow said, whichever suits him best. This wasn't a first shouted, first served
scenario
But I did do well indeed, very pleased with them.

I'm still hunting for some cheap ones on the Bay of E.
Not much luck yet anywhere near my part of the land so far.
Appreciate the offer mate, I have a spare wheel option sorted for when
the MTR's are on, otherwise I'd gladly worked something out for yours.

Nobody has ended up with the other 5 MTRs at this time.
There might be an opportunity in a few months' time for the forum to receive donations again, if you get my drift.

I dont
I couldn't pick them up from your home address, you wouldn't wait in for a courier to collect and you wouldn't drop them off at Straithern Engineering which is just up the road. Tell me Andrew, how do you break down Fortress Cow for any sort of collection/delivery?

Ent's eyes only ;-)
Ent: your comments are unwelcome, especially in the public forum as opposed to a PM.
I could, perhaps, understand your attitude if I was trying to sell the MTRs for personal gain, but I'm not.
You do not know me or my personal circumstances and your public comments are unwelcome.

So why advertise them on a public forum ... If you don't want to be "public"
All sounds very weird to meG4 Gone ...but not forgotten

In that case don't try to make out to be underhand

Ent: that's news to me that you've definitively got 5 MTRs from me....
You haven't finalised things with me and I've not confirmed it.
We had done the deal but you decided to make collection all most impossible, I have merely given details of how difficult you made collection to all and sundry. Why didn't you simply put in the original post"only available to people who live on the same street"
Don't waste peoples time and effort by setting totally unrealistic collection opportunities and don't come across as a complete tool by PM and then like sugar wouldn't melt in the open forum.
I don't know your personal circumstances as I'm not a mind reader, if you would have explained your work schedule or day to day movements I would have had the fuller picture and may be we could have found something that suited us both.
As to the unwelcome comments they were only intended as a bit of leg pulling, don't take personal offence, I'm like that with everybody Club Exped trailer

It wasn't that impossible for me as I managed to collect 4 MTR's at the SCAM meeting without
any problem at all from highlandcow.

That's great Hess but I live over 200 miles from Glasgow and with 24 hours notice it proved to be a non starter. Andrew kindly set me a 2pm deadline for me to make arrangements for that night which again didn't materialise. So over to you with answers on a postcard.Club Exped trailer

Fact of the matter is, whatever has taken place in private messages aside, highlandcow initially stated
that he'd offer these to whoever provided the most convenient way to him.
If that isn't convenient to whoever wanted these, then that's unfortunate.
That's also how I ended up with 4 of them, as I drove 2 and a half hours
to the SCAM meeting where highlandcow was attending also and collected them there and then.
This was due to convenience to highlandcow, fair enough I was attending anyway but as
convenience goes that was suitable for highlandcow.
I can understand you're frustrated Ent, it's a good deal and sometimes things don't work
out as we'd all like, but I do think that especially when things are being sold and the whole amount
raised is donated to a public forum, then people should cut the guy some slack.
A £180 donation is nothing to joke about. £80 of which has already been donated from the MTR's I've collected.
As far as I am concerned when someone is that free giving, he's entitled to make things a little
easy and convenient to himself.
Not sure if it all fits on a postcard, but there's my thoughts on the matter.
