Default RE: Jack Devine Models website

I don't have too much to say on the subject, but here goes: I am the webmaster for the Jack Devine website, I own the website, I own the Domain names. It was all I ended up with 8 months ago after NWHT went under. I spent 3 and 1/2 years building the website and got almost nothing for that except crucified by association out here in the forums when Carl Hickey surprised us all with his bankruptcy. Jack bought the remnants of the business from Carl 8 months ago and struck a deal with me identical to my deal with Carl. The deal is no secret, once he started shipping kits I would get a kit every two months, and the website is provided to Jack free with all maintenance. Obviously, he gets more from the website than I do with the deal, but I was okay with it, it furthers my hobby without dipping into the family budget. Jack started shipping kits out at about three weeks. But here it is 8 months later, the last few of those months spent asking for just my first kit and being put off. Last day of January, I gave up. I pulled the plug. Not much more to it than that. It's not a power play, it's a disappointment. I'd rather have a few kits and be waiting for more. Wouldn't you?

I'd like to thanks the moderators and powers that be here at RC Universe for allowing me to post this.
