Re: Jets22\"Blackbird\" Run2 Part2

Yep, IIRC Psychomodo paid 6/18/04 as did I. However as mentioned above, Fitz made a post on 6/29/05 of "Paypal sent" but he received his 06/10/05.


I don't know when this was written but I just saw this in Brock's Profile:
"Location FL (soon to be PA.)
Bio I will be relocating my family to PA. (Mid month)
I will be moving accounts for e-mails and revising things as needed during the cross country move. Be back soon Everyone.. thanks and talk soon

BK"

Re: Jets22\"Blackbird\" Run2 Part2

Hi guys I was just looking at this thread. Just so you know it took a year from pay pal to delivery. While I admire Brock and his flashlights (especially the finish). I hate to say this but the Pre-Pay system just is not working here. Personally I do not think I will participate in them any more.
It really is not fair to take peoples money and the make them wait 1 year to get the goods. I had the same issue with Dspec up north as well. There is a better way. I understand that some times disasters and sickness can get in the way. Personally I think that there is a whole bunch of pressure on Brock to finish. He has collected money and now has this build hanging over his head. What a terrible feeling it must be.
Brock I support you. I also think that when you are holding these monies people deserve better communication. The Broken E-mail thing sounds like an excuse. G-Mail and Hot mail accounts are free and require no internet account. They are HTML based and are accessible from anywhere in the world. I still have the first mail I received on my g-mail account.
Please don't follow the path of some others on CPF follow through at least with regular communications.
Just my thoughts.

Re: Jets22\"Blackbird\" Run2 Part2

If there are any recent recipients still checking in, did your BB come with a "hanger box"?

I always thought those were slick but info on them sort of got swallowed up. I never read if the ones that were incoming ever made it.

Re: Jets22\"Blackbird\" Run2 Part2

OK. we landed in PA. What a stressful trip with the family moving cross country. I just got a DSL service hooked up today and Bellsouth killed my old account after I told them to keep the e-mail alive.. (just found that out couple days ago) Soon as my new e-mail is started I'll update that iun the profile..PM still work. E-mails to the old accounts have been killed and lost..they said 99.9% they will not be able to retrieve them. I have 3 of the last BB's built out befor I left Florida and will be posting some PM.s as soon as I pull my list out of the mound of boxes. Just a quick post to let everyone know what's up and looking forward to being up and running. thanks

Great to hear you're out of Florida, Brock. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mpr.gif

That was one very tough year for you and being close to family will be good. I guess you'll be putting the Aloha shirts and Guayabera's in storage, eh? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Great to hear that the move went well. Now time for the unpacking (it took us about a year when we moved!).

Re: Jets22\"Blackbird\" Run2 Part2

I'm looking at average life expectancy tables and wondering whether I'll see my BB before I die?
