This make me sick seeing people bashing Ken! This dude have a pretty hard time in his life and some treat him like a bitch! I have 2 gloves ordered from him I hope the best and I trust him all the way!Like someone said earlier, why the hell would he offer refund if he wanted time! Also by saying to everyone that he have difficulties with the shipping he expose himself with shit from future consumers! Man maybe someone will think : hey I will not buy from Ken because he had fucking troubles with shipment and that way lost a sale!!!!! He did this because he's honest with his clients!He's business is on the line and some treat him like shit. This is seriously ASSHOLEI'm totally behind you Ken!

I think its something I can get out of, but thats a big charge man.<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndYeah, I'm pretty sure you'll easily get out of this. Hopefully you'll soon find out exactly why she's suing you. Did this "underage person" injure him/herself? She'd have to prove that you were negligent. Hopefully you can go through your records when you find out which buyer's mother is doing this and show this to the judge. If this person is a minor (under 18 years of age) he/she had to use someone else's bank account since they cannot legally own money on their own. The account would have to be in someone else's name with them possibly named as a co-owner. That's the nature of doing business online. Sellers cannot prove who they sell to. Only select items are federally regulated (guns, chemicals, etc) so you are not required to PROVE the buyer's age before selling to them. If I have some recommendations, I would put a disclaimer on your website like I did when I got into this business. Here's what mine says:"The blades on my gloves are pointed but I do NOT sharpen the blades nor will I do so upon request. These gloves are meant to ONLY be props for display, costumes, or for just plain old impressing your friends. They are not to be used as a weapon of any kind in any way and I assume no liability for any damages or injuries that may occur due to any irresponsible use or accident. So, be careful with them... these are NOT toys and do not let children play with them."So, while it sucks that you're at a stand-still, I personally feel that you can remain calm and be confident that you will walk away with nothing more than a recommendation to maybe package the glove better if that is in fact why she's suing you. If it's just because you sold it to a minor, the person's bank account that was used is the responsible person since they allowed (either knowingly or not) a minor to make a purchase using their account.Rest easy, bud.

Wow.......! The government or whoever has taken your site down! This is bizarre! If this Lady in question is trying to sue you for selling a glove to a minor there are a few things worth noting...... 1. You cannot open a Pay Pal account unless you are 18 or older I believe. 2. If someone underage used mommys or daddys credit card to buy something they're not supposed to then it is the fault of the parent for not keeping cards safe and for not knowing what their kids get up to. 3. Finally the fault is with the parent for not being smart enough to keep an eye on what their kids purchase. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":confused:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"confused.gif\" /> Ken, try to relax bro, try not to let this blip get you too down in the dumps, you will be ok. You have done nothing wrong. Me, Mark, Daz, B47, and numerous others are right behind you dude. I think what Daz suggested was a good idea........lets all send you pictures of our Nightmare On Elm Street collections to show this Judge person how these props are displayed by honest, reliable, law abiding, adult collectors. I think that would go in your favour as they could see these things are meant for responsible collectors and not freakish psychos looking to do someone some damage. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":whistling:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"whistling.gif\" />

Sorry.. one last note. I can personally attest to the fact that Ken is telling the truth. I won't get specific but he has proven to me that what he says is the truth. I put my own reputation on the line with this as well. So be it."The truth shall set you free.

Man this lady is stupid in my opinion. Like knifegloves said, the kid must have the credit card and the authorization from the parents! and if a kid burn himself after buying a lighter would it be illegal to ship lighter????If I would want to kill someone I wouldn't use a Freddy glove to do it hahaha to much work and effort into the glove I'd be stressed to brake it hahaha. But this is a good idea to send pictures of Fred gloves. That way they will see that we used that as prop.From my point of view Ken cannot really lost at this... Come one it's PROPS!!!! and it's really easy to prove that. plus the lady thing is stupid cause the owner of the card is responsible for the kid's doing.
