Message to members from BCBimmers.com Re: Al Larson, Al Canu

Hi everyone, Mark from BCBimmers here.

I have tried to approve new members asap so my apologies for the delays previously.

Al is now trying to make payment arrangements for the first time in 3 years. Of course cheating people all over the internet wasn't his fault, as the "great" Mr. Larson , Canuck or whatever he calls himself can do no wrong, its always someone elses fault. I have had many emails from folks not wanting to post due to them being scared of the backlash he is capable of. He will never admit fault so will be banned from my board as soon as everyone has a chance to tell their story.

he actually was successfully sued not too long ago by an 02 owner in Vancouver. Seems Al didn't look after the guy's car as he wished it would have. By leaving it outside for an extended period of time the car got vandalized one night. The owner never got any satisfaction from Al so he sued him and one! This was quite recent (within 6 months I believe).

well here in Canada you can win in Small Claims Court but then no one enforces the payment. The guy one against Al but Al never paid him. Typical Larson style. I have banned him for life from BCBimmers. Once a thief always a thief.

I hope this helps the victims that are are still waiting for some type of restitution from Al. Lord knows there are dozens and dozens of them

Sigh.....

The one I liked was when he owed a bunch of people money and or product then he showed off his new tat!

I really hoped he would get his act together. Oh well....

I hate to dig up old threads and open old wounds but this thief needs to face the music.

I hate to see good people (especially fellow BMW fans) get rooked.

Can't believe this clown is still around. I shipped a bunch of parts to him plus some cash in trade for carpet and some other work. My transaction drug on for months, then years, but I mostly kept quiet as I feared should I speak out I would never see anything from him. Every so often I would get a package, first the rear seat delete, then the carpet. Then finally over 2 years after our original deal the remainder of what he owed me showed up - some custom door panels.

The work was decent but the time he put me on hold to get tats, buy new cars, and open another shop was totally unacceptable. .
