This is a good point. No excuses for this. 1 month, probably 2, but 7 months! That's not serious at all. |

Damn Mike, tought times for sure. I know I have purchased some great tapes from you over the last year and even though times got tough, I still managed to PAY for them. a DEAL is a DEAL and if anyone's gonna make one with Mike, Then you know you must honor it in a somewhat relative time frame. We all know the economy sucks right now and we all know jobs are at risk And WE all know that's one of the defining reasons Mike sold off so much of his collection. It was for his and his families best interest and security in these troublesome times so it goes without saying anyone that bought from him had some understanding of these things as well and it only makes sense to do the right thing and work with him...especially like he says, cats that owe him cash who have bought tapes from others since the deal he made with them...again, times are super tough, but in the end, if you cant afford the TAPES dont buy'em...Sorry it's gotten a bit dicey bro...global nightmare & gloBULL Nightmare!

First off this is a good lesson for the future. But that doesn't clear the current situation. Getting their names out would surely make the collecting world less enjoyable as this will be heard in any discussion regarding one of the 'bad payers'. I think first off I would contact the moderators or the owners of the particular site they were sold to negotiate on behalf of you. In these kinda dealings a third party is the best wauy to handle things. In normal life you get a lawyer to fix things but that is not likely in this case. So this is what I would do I guess. |

changing collecting habits is no real reason. what he should do is just buy them and when he gets them just sell them straight away. |

I don't want to start another off-off topic but once I posted something similar to Mike about some abuse from some people (I named someone from Italy at the time) and you closed down my thread and opened a new one saying that it is strictly forbidden to POST names or to point out that someone did something wrong. Here I can understand if you ask Mike to PM you the names but in your previous post right above you state: YOU CAN POST THE NAMES HERE... I mean? I understand the guy I was angry about at the time was one of your acquaintances but you should stick to the rules you posted earlier

I think it is a good thing Mike brought this up, been wondering about how other members thought about this for quite a while... I share your experiences and I think that those doing a lot of trades or sales through this great forum don't need any names to know very well who these few folks are... Good to know I'm not the only one who is bugged by this behaviour, won't let it ruin the fun for myself as I very well know this mentality is just how some people are and I try to live up to my agreements myself so I can at least face myself in the mirror as far as trading VHS is concerned... Sometimes unexpected financial difficulties can hit you hard but I've heard the "I now changed my collecting habits to other sorts of tapes" talk in the past as well... I have great love for dusty old VHS tapes and I try to keep my collecting about love for VHS in the first place so I try not to let it bug me because then it takes the essence out of what it once started with; PURE VIDEO LOVE!!! |
