Why you never deal with Strangletooth...!

Scoville ... Do yourself a favor and either STFU or get out of here. You obviously don't get it. You know neither of these people. You are new here and it's not a good way to make friends

"This guy's so old he farts dust, man!"
Fart in the wind.. All we do is fart in the wind...

I may be old, but I know when there is a time to not offer up what I think. It serves no purpose because I know it will not make any difference. I'll say this. It's an interesting read but all this is showing me is there are a lot of busy bodies spouting off. And it looks real bad to me.

[Strangletooth]

Well, I guess I need to make this perfeclty clear for the shed's, rocket scientists and Dr Phil's here that STILL don't get it...

At no point in time was the swag/plate EVER in jeopardy of being "permanently" parted from this guitar.... I have no use for it without the guitar, it belongs with the guitar, and I was very vocal about that when someone else tried to sell their BR without the plate. I was told I had to "ship the guitar" or be arrested, so that's what I did, nothing more, nothing less. And for the shed that's going to say "Well the plate is part of the guitar" well, I put it away for safe keeping because I play all my guitars, and now I just need to find it, no biggie... I may have to sneak it past my wife before I can ship it tho... :ROTF:

It was done out of spite and to send Ian a message, that's how I took my anger/frustrations out, NOT by trashing this guitar.

Yes I think Ian said what he had to say but FAILED miserably with giving you guys the details on our transaction, for OBVIOUS REASONS, He makes himself out to be some innocent victim here and he's far from it! I would've expected him to at least post something about my side of it, I picked his apart, why not mine? Simple, he can't...

Since I posted a lot of details on the deal, (and I still haven't shown all my cards, "Shawn") Ian hasn't come here or anywhere to accept or deny my claims of events, that tells me a lot. It was real easy for Ian to throw some garbage out there, accuse me of trashing this guitar and throw me under a bus, left for dead... But I suppose it's not so easy that I'm here "now" and have posted "most" of the details about it. I can give you a ton of evidence to back my claims here.

Think about this for just a second....

If I had trashed that guitar, do you think "had I done this", I would have waited this long to post? If I knew the guitar was trashed prior to shipping, I would also know he'd come here and post. And those of you that know me, know I'd be right behind him. I think that makes a statement all in it's own.

He sent me one cryptic message when he received the guitar, I believe it said something like... I saw what you did, and I'm not surprised... That's the last thing I've heard from Ian, publicly or privately...

After reading ALL these damn posts-it took awhile-
-and I know none of the players here-I'm suprised it took you that long to get the police involved, but I had a similar experience and I also took longer than I should have- I guess you really don't want to face the facts- I know I didn't want to.
Yes, the guitar seems to have received some damage in shipping, but it NEVER should have taken that long to ship. If it was shipped out when it was purchased.....

Apparently, you missed some reading there... It was ready to ship once the transaction was finalized and money paid, he's the one that delayed shipping, not me... And for several months, not a couple of weeks.

BTW I didnt mean to suggest anything by bring up the joke about the swag getting eaten. Now it probably wasnt such a good idea... Ddint mean to infer anything by it.

Fair enough- it looks like a wacky tranaction altogether. I retract my statement as I wasn't involved, but no one like to read about this sort of thing.

I ate it, and it was good. Too bad you didn't have any. :ROTF:

Pure class again from an admin. You know we have PMs.

I'm not taking sides about the damage. Who knows but........

Ian gave you an out when you guys agreed on a refund. Holding the money was just child-ish. It would have been over. Someone has to take the high road and you choose not and here we are in a sh*t storm.

Ian screwed up too with the delayed deliveries so he is still has his faults in this transaction.

Personally I would never do *any* kind of business with Pat. If I piss you off are you going top delete my website. I hope you don't treat your other customers that way. This is the second time Pat has acted like a 2 year old. 1) I'm going to delete the JCF 2) I'm going to hold the money and teach you a lesson.

Pat you maybe a great guy to go have a few beers with but I'm not going to do any business with you.

My 5 yr old reads better than you Kansas...

Get yer facts together and come back aye? (Maybe it's a KC thing, I've got some friends in KC and they seem to have the same mentality, maybe it's in the water?)



Pat

[AK47]

He got his facts straight. Maybe he should have said you (Pat) acted immature instead of a 2 year old but he got his facts straight.

Please point out what he got wrong fact wise.

[Strangletooth]

I don't need to point them out, I've already done that, you need to go back and read the thread again... And maybe you'll see.

But you've got to read ALL of the words besides, the, if, and, of, it, to, etc etc... Ya know, the words that consist of more than 3 letters...

Pat

[EDIT] I will point one out though as it's not in this thread ands perhaps not fair to the challenged. At no time was the word "delete" in any conversation about the JCF.
