What Happened To Mike @ F.o.d?

[🪦 The Leprechaun ●]

I need his phone number/address b/c if I don't receive a box from him soon, something has to be done legally. I have been waiting over 2 years for a bunch of hockey masks and he keeps disappearing and/or giving broken promises. I really need his info, someone please help. THANKS!-KEN

Yea man, Goodluck with mike.....There's been a lot of people having problems with him lately.....

[🪦 Dzsturbed ●]

I gave Mike a call and he said this..."Beast, this goes for you and everyone that has ordered from me. Most people's stuff is done and completed. The problem is shipping money. When someone made a false accusation and others jumped in on the bandwagon, people were making paypal claims and having their money taken out which made you negative balance in my paypal account almost $2,000. Only way to get that money back is to get all the orders completed within a week so I could get the money back from paypal. I wasn't able to accomplish that and I ended up losing most of that money. So I'm having to use money from my other job to pay for everything which isn't nearly enough. People keep filing false claims and wont give me the time. Those only a couple people that had the patience with me and didn't flie a claim. There are so may makers that promies things and NEVER ship them out and still post on ebay and no one ever complains about them. I stopped taking orders and selling on ebay so I could get everyone's orders done. Earl, as far as me telling you the only thing left to be done is the eyes was true but that doesn't mean it was going to be shipped out in the next day or two. I'm trying to get everyone's items done in the order they were paid. As far as PM'S, I hardly have time to get on a computer to check anything. Someone from this board sent me an email claiming it was a photo and when I clicked on it, it crashed my computer. I don't have the money to get it fixed yet. Leprechaun...half your order was sent out August of 2006 and you wait until Nov. to ask me where they're at and claim you never got them. After you complaining, I offered to replace them free of charge. I told you that I would send them out in May. Two masks were shipped out to you and I sent you im's on AIM and an email twice to get your addy so I could ship to more to you. I got no reply and heard not one word from you until now. Why is it that you get your masks, ignore my im's and email and when someone starts a thread about me, you jump into the drama? There's other member that have problems with you as well. Masks come second, family comes first! I've been working on the haunted house because that's what making me money right now. People need to be more understanding. Over the past years I've given free stuff to people, lent people money when THEY needed it and all I get is complaints when I have family problems come up. There's only two people that should complain about anything. That is Pugsly and Jvfan. Jvfan sent me two blanks back in the winter to get painted and I'm sure he's getting anxious for his things and he hasn't been an ass. Pugsly has never complained either and that I thank you both for. Family problems and illness is not to be taken lightly. I've never disappeared once from the internet until now and that is because of work and family. I don't understand how some makers disappear when they owe people stuff and keep taking more orders and selling on ebay and no one complains about that. People would've had their orders alot sooner if it weren't for the people spreading rumors and scaring everyone one else into thinking I'm ripping them off and taking their money back through paypal. This person shall remain nameless...they won a mask from ebay, I said it would go out in two weeks and it went out in two weeks. I didn't hear one complaint about this person receiving it until all the BS started up. To the people who waited, I do thank you. To the people who's waiting and caused problems, your order will still go out and that's that. I will always remember the people that started all this crap and rumors. Leprechaun, I can't trust you. Explain to me how eveyone has got their masks I sent out except you? As soon I I tell you I shipped your mask I hear nothing from you for 4 months? I find that BS. Also emazers, this guy has bought lots from and still is waiting on stuff and has not bad mouthed me. For everyone that has ordered from me and has been patient and not jumpimg the rumor bandwagon, I will be giving you something extra."That is all from Mike guys. If you have any ?'s for Mike just please PM me and I'll try to get a hold of him.

My intention was not to bad mouth you. It was just to find out what was going on. I must have misunderstood what you meant in our short emails.

As you all know we don't condone topics like this at nightowl. This is where Justin conducts his business, so lets have some respect for that. However, this topic was not deleted to give mike a chance to reply. We please ask that the rest of your concerns be conducted in a private manner.

[🪦 darko@totalgeek ●]

Please note that this response is not directed to anyone above............but 2 years seems a painfully long time to wait for something once it has been paid for. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":confused:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"confused.gif\" />

The lesson here is that you should pay half for something and once completed pay the rest. Or deal with Rustydowg.

[🪦 SuperDanDrista ●]

Alright not sure if Gary's point came across or if anyone cares, but let's end this. If anyone else makes a thread about Mike I'm deleting it. This has no business on NIGHTOWL

[🪦 fright-rags ●]

Agreed. And for anyone who thinks we mods are trying to protect Mike in any way by deleting threads or posts that put him in a negative light, I invite you to re-read the rules of this board. We don't allow that for ANY member. There have been plenty of other threads made against members that we've had to police, so this isn't the first nor will it be the last I am sure. No one here gets special treatment...well, besides Justin <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" />I understand not all members come here daily so I can see why these posts are popping up every once and awhile. Just please understand why we need to stop them in their tracks before they become bash-fests. I'm not saying this would have happened in this thread, but we can't risk it once that door has been opened.Mike is the one responsible for taking care of his customers. Although some of his business has been done on this board (as many other mask makers have done), all customer issues need to be dealt with him privately either through PMs or email. This goes for all other mask makers as well. Please understand that this is done to keep the board from getting cluttered with business unrelated to Nightowl, and to keep it a fun place to go to.

[🪦 The Leprechaun ●]

Mike told me my masks were shipped back then yes, but I never received anything...I asked him and he was unable to provide tracking for anything. All I asked for was tracking. Then he says why wait until Nov. to ask where they were??? simply b/c there is a wait time involved in this business and I was being a patient, non-nagging customer as Justin very well knows I am... Dzsturbed, I would really appreciate you asking Mike b/c you have his number, to please ship out my full order with tracking and confirmation. I am not here to rip him off, just want my masks and have been patiently waiting for 2 years for a few hockey masks, I mean come on....Not trying to bash him, just trying to get info as to where my stuff is as his e-mail and phone seem to always be down....-Ken
