Dooredge, I am a college student supporting myself and paying all my own bills yet I still offered to pay you the 200 even if it would have taken me a while. All I asked was that you remove my personal info and stop calling me from blocked numbers at all hours of the night... you did neither and still follow me on public and private sites.
I may be just a history student but I am sure there is at least one or two professors on campus with a J.D that would be willing to help give me advice or help me file a restraining order or something to that effect... expect that mid-week ( I still have all your info as well )
I had dozens and dozens of great deals across the boards before you and have had several since then. Nobody else has had any issue with me or my shipping methods. You were not intentionally wronged by me, and I offered you recompense that you denied all so you could continue this childish vendetta.
TO ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN THE GUITAR If you wish I can provide recent (VERY) references from several sites both international and domestic. If you have references and we come to a deal, I would ship first and allow delivery/inspection before expecting anything in return. I love this community and i've always strived to be very supportive of it. I hosted an amp show in 2009 that several of you met me at. Many of you have also met me at the SEGAS shows, Bill's cookout, local repair shops, shows, etc.
I consider many of you guys mentors, colleagues, and friends. Stike, Bill, Tim, Brett, Devin, Billy, Brian, John, Andy, Brad, Phileppe,Jeremy, Eddie, Will, Mike, etc.
I hate to name drop but i've jammed with Mark from Lava, worked on his guitars. Loitered many a day at Indoor Storm with Eddie, fetched beers last week with Andy Wood, talked about muffins with Phil from Little Walter.... I mean I consider myself a (small) part of the local scene and a friend to most anyone bitten by the gear bug. I don't have a big fancy job or supportive parents, everything i've bought or sold has been through work and dealing. It is my main hobby and passion, hell I literally dream of rare and unusual guitars in my sleep, I list guitar specs on the back of my homework. I'm not here to cheat anyone, and I am sorry he feels like he was wronged. I tried my hardest to fix things but he refused the money then in lieu of making a scene. The 6 or 7 guys I have dealt with since then have all had glowing things to say of me and if you want you can hear it from them.
Sorry to the mods and everyone else for that rant and the discussion in this thread.
