K.I.P on Extra
BeetleJuice - December 2nd, 2008 at 06:26 PM
Just caught the end of Extra and they did a segment on KIP from the coast.
Anyone else see it?
It was on our local station WIN.

I saw it and couldn't believe channel 9 would run the story without doing any research before airing it. That bloke doesn't deserve to have his name
on the back of a public toilet door let alone all over the TV during prime time viewing. Hopefully someone who he ripped off contacts channel 9 and
fills them in on what this bloke has done in the last 8 months or so.

I was in shock when i saw it - I know that these things are made months in advance and aired whenever there is quiet airtime (or during the
holidays).
They SHOULD have known about recent events and stopped it from airing, or alternatively re-edited to remove the KIP references. I made a point
of recording it to my computer - i can make it available if anyone wishes to see it.

Cool.
So that John guy is the same guy who ripped all those Kombi guys ? He was in bed with Roy from the Bus Stop yeah ?
Haven't seen much on it I thought there would have been threads all over the place.
LIFE IN THE LOW LANE - December 3rd, 2008 at 06:43 AM
this is the 2nd time it has been showed. Yep that's the bloke who did a runner with peoples money and some parts. He had nothing business wise to do
with Roy from the bus stop apart from Roy supplying him with parts as ordered.
Roy has been going out of his way to help people get their unfinished cars back as creditors are owed money all over the place. He also has been
responsible for tracking owners down as KIP's paperwork was pretty poor and didn't even have some names and addresses of some owners from what i
have heard.

gees, that guy looks like he knows what hes doing with kombis, i might give him a call and get a quote
ian.mezz - December 3rd, 2008 at 07:44 AM
20k to 80k on a old Kombi ,Thats a lot of money to lose. i hope the people get some of their money back.

barn door, double door, anything you call em is gonna be wrong in someone's book. 
and I reckon if anyone is silly enough to spend 80k on a kombi they've need their head read. is that what too much grass does to your brain?
but yeah, ripping people off is not cool

I guess, it is the least Roy could do since the KC Forums he started to give cred to his Bus Stop after Classic VW Shat on people and was renamed.
Then his previous mate Johnie an him get in bed and fat together only to have him now distance himself when things go bad. Funnily enough the KC Guys
tried to warn each others and Roy and his mods kept deleting stuff which made it worse for their so called KC Community.
Now Roy is trying to straighten his own mess out by being a good guy, please give me a break.. He made plenty of $$$ selling parts to K.I.P and some
may question if the parts which went to K.I.P and are now missing ever even made it of the Bus Stop Doors.
Roy even took ca re of posting parts out to buyers and the $$$ went to the KC .. how suss is this, KC members are getting ripped off and their
illustrious leader is posting parts from the business in questions stash and banking the proceeds … this is a riot…
Just to top it all off I hear Roy is moving shed, talk about leaving the scene of a crime.
No doubt Roy will come out of it smelling like roses just like last time he screwed a heap of VW Businesses over, at least then he changed his name,
logo and business location.. hey hang on a minute, don’t suppose The Bus Stop are changing names ?? nah just “moving sheds”
I can sympathize with all those who got ripped by K.I.P but I wouldn’t be surprised if it just keeps on happening when Custom Offroad, Idle Wild and
a few others got ripped by Classic VW Pacific people where surprised anyone dealt with Roy at all, now a few years on Bus Stop Lable in hand… Roy is
helping out K.I.P Customers what a nice guy ….
And people wonder why I got out of the VW Business……..
