So he is taking peoples money for a service.
Using that money to pay personal bills.
Then cant provide the service or refund due to his personal neccesities?





This CANNOT be legal!!!!

why does the set aside money from people's payments go to his bills though? that doesn't make any sense.

i've pm'd two super-mods and an admin to unlock the 31 page 16 THOUSAND view thread that we've been using before, that's a big deal to me.

Yeah I dont agree with some of the threads locked. They said they dont want them going off topic. But if people dont see this thread, how will they ever know??

And they say they dont want to ban him due to people will never get their money back, but why do they continue to let him sell??

He hasnt fixed his act, I have posted 3 people who have received keyhole plugs this week that had major issues!!!! TO the tune of 50% of each one of their shipments having something wrong. One didnt fit correctly, one was scratched, and the other he forgot to include the bumper plugs!!!!!!



So his claims of it was in the past, it was only garnishes and its the same couple people saying bad things, ARE UNTRUE!!!

He's messed up in the past, but I honestly think he's trying to redeem himself.

It's times like these where I'm happy I don't have an experience thread about me...I don't want to know what it would say.

Trying and succeding are two different things.

He has had 3 members in the past week receive his key hole plugs and have major issues with it all!!!

^^ its one thing to try and redeem yourself.. its another to lie about it... on top of lying its not right as a business to not take responsibility for your actions... yeah maybe he did get in over his head, but that doesnt make it right for us patrons. If he couldnt handle the flow, he shouldve just sent all our money back... yeah its a cruel world and unfortunately its all about the money.. if he makes his way outta this situation, then this experience will ensure this never happens again.. but to cut him some slack isnt possible... too many lies and the lack of communication only makes me believe that i got scammed out of the money i worked my butt off to earn...

i dont expect anyone to really understand the situation.. everyone saying "cut him some slack" or "he's trying"... that doesnt make sense to me.. maybe if he let me know early on that it wasnt going to happen then yeah maybe i'd try to understand.. but its just been a series of lies.. and honestly he's getting away with it.. thats why i take this seriously..

it means nothing to me how sincerely sorry he might be or how hard he's trying to get back on his feet.. he's doing nothing to make the situation right with these people..
