OK.... this thing has obviously taken on a life of it's own. Before i posted the original complaint, I contacted him 3 or 4 times after months of waiting. 4 months to be exact. He told me the'' i've been sick'' story which at face value i had to believe. He then Told me it was on it's way. Another 6 weeks went by and I contacted him again and he told me he lost the money because someone ripped him of and he had to use my money to finish other projects????? Can you say ''Ponzi'' Then I demanded a refund of my 489.00 and asked him where my money was. that's when he told me some of it was donated to the young miss America pageant and I was like a cheap old J** because i complained my money was spent and I didn't have my kit. that's when i realized I wasn't dealing with a full deck here. I decided to go on the attack and not give in until A: he paid me back, Or B: he delivered a good competent kit. He refused to pay me back because young miss america had my money and now it appears he did deliver the kit. I'll see it friday and let everyone know how it looks. If the kit is there and real, this attack has been successful and maybe we as a hobby need to collectively attack the people who continually hurt us. Before I did this, I read some other forums where other people had been waiting years for their kits from this guy. i wasn't going to wait that long.
thanks to everybody who chimed in.
He also gave me the sick run about glad I never sent him money. Then turns out he was following my posts here on rCU and complained to me saying that he was waiting for more info and for me to tell him what to do.
He's in Westland Michigan and I'm about an hour away, the best thing to do is either get a sales receipt or paypal invoice to show you paid and contact the local police.
