    n00b 0f l337?

    Anyone heard from Adam? I haven't been able to make any contact since the end of Sept. I know he has school and all that, but he also has breaks. I've paid him in full for a unit that was to be completed before the school year started. He ran into a setback so I said no worries, just finish it up on a weekend or break. Now I get no replies to emails or any other forms of contact I've attempted. If anyone has any info on his status I'd be grateful.

    would you crunch if you thought it would save her life?

    maybe it will!

    Well he's done builds for a few guys here..... maybe they can chime in? Maybe the OP can contact them and check the numbers? loonym check this section for builds, and build logs for the customers.

    I've never done business with anyone here, but how will checking build logs help loonym? I think too often we place the burden on the person being ripped-off (if this is in fact a rip-off) to chase down the person in whom they put their trust. As a community we should pull together when there is the appearance of wrongdoing.

    Plus, I know loonym wouldn't mention this, but he's not in the best of health. As someone who knows what's that's like, I can tell you that even simple things can be very difficult. They're only simple when you're healthy.

    If this guy lives near me, I'll be happy to go knock on his door.

    I think his most recent build log is the one for me. I have a current cell #. I get voice mail. Contact was good until the end of Sept. and since then nothing. I like the kid, I just want my unit.

    Its that he can contact the other customers and see what numbers they have for him. I thought that was made clear...

    "Maybe the OP can contact them and check the numbers?"

    hehehe funny you mention location Twilyth as he does live in Jersey, and only about an hour drive north/north east of Philly.


    Cpt_Planet, INJViper, Philly_boy and I hung out with him a few times.

    Same story for my unit loonym. Great contact and pics of the build and then nothing. Last pm he sent was that my unit was truly done this time and would ship that weekend (weekend before Halloween). He started my build way back in April this year and still I've got nothing same as you. I hope that someone can get in contact with him and get these issues settled in a nice way. Things happen, but damn it's been 3/4 of a year already.

    Ruh? Photo? It's not like I'm a hitman you know. OK, I'm retired, but let's not quibble.

    Well I mean we all saw the Sopranos right and that was based in Jersey, and after all Jersey is in between Philly and New York and we all know how popular Mobs and associated crimes are synonymous with those cities

    I spoke with Adam last night. Seems he's laid up in the hospital.
    Will keep all advised as to what is going on as I hear from him.
