I will give DZ a buzz....he might have some from when she picked up the Cyberlead.
So is the only member of NG.com to successfully organize a group buy in prison on charges of homicide?
This is a tough market.
Also: I always suggest that whenever a member, established or relatively new, goes rogue like this that all their personal info should be posted publicly. If they fix things I or someone in the mods can always go remove it later.
Also 2: I had no idea BIG was scamming people--but greed turns some people people into scumbags.
That was an epic group buy. A few of us ordered extra popcorn when she kicked that off.
I got 3 stools out of that deal with no troubles/hassles. Just throwing that out there.
Reading this thread is really depressing. I had no idea she had screwed over this many buyers. After skimming through all of this and seeing she had a habit of selling busted items, I might as well share my experience in dealing with her.
Last May I bought a PCE Duo from her. She listed the item for $110. Eager to get my hands on a Duo I shot her a PM and she said the item was still available, but told me to send her 20 dollars more than her original shipped price (after I sent payment she edited the price in her original listing). Kind of flaky on her part, but I wanted the system and wasn't going to pass it up when that was still a good deal. She said the system was fine but she wanted to sell it to fund the purchase of a Duo-R.
Well, after having the system for just a few days I noticed that almost all redbook audio in Ys skipped (a common sign of a system with faulty capacitors). It got to the point that the game would freeze in dialog heavy sequences of the game. After playing the game for about six hours total the CD drive completely stopped working. I never reported this to her as I figured it was just my luck, but looking back at the experience people have had with her I find it very hard to believe she didn't see the signs that this system was in its death throes when she sent it to me. Capacitor failure is extremely common in Duos, and the fate of this system combined with her talking about upgrading from this unit to a Duo R is pretty telling, at least in my opinion. Either way, now I'm stuck with a pretty looking paper weight until I get this hunk of junk repaired. Admittedly, I should have brought this to her attention, so I don't know if she would or wouldn't have made steps to make this right. I'm not looking for anything out of this, but figured it was worth noting considering what other buyers are going through in regards to Sammybean.
From this experience and that of other members here, I'd say deal with her at your own risk.
I helped EG when he sold a few cabs to her. The boyfriend and his friend or father showed up to grab them. Mike and I both confronted her on shit that didn't add up on here ages ago and no one backed us up... I will keep an eye on NEACF since she is from Maine if she tries to join.
"Oh, I just chained the first stage in DOJ"
lol, it's funny how some of the people in this thread backed her up when I tried moving her ass along in that stool thread.
What the........
Making restitutions on this. PM sent.
THE RETURN pt IIYou've PM, Sir.
Anyone else I owe anything to can come forth via PM as well, but I'm not dealing with the drama above.
