No, Edwood, I'm not vindictive, nor am I angry, and am not cavalierly deciding not to sell you something because you "pissed me off" as you put it; I never offered to sell you anything to begin with.
If I "have a lot to learn about customer service" I guess I must have been wrong all these years and after hundreds of happy customers in group buys, custom lights, etc. Fact of the matter is you requested me to prepare a package for you of spare parts which I did not have for sale and have never generally sold in this project or in any of my previous ones, which entails roughly an hour of my time to prepare, pack, drive the the post office, and ship your parts, during a time when I'm already very busy to begin with. I'm happy to do someone a favor when I have time, and had planned to do for you what I had done for the handful of others who requested parts, and simply mail them to you at no charge once I had a chance to get to it. Favors aren't reserved to those in some sort of arcane "inner circle", but I'm not going to go out of my way and do a favor for someone who's rude and goes out of his way to try and make a scene on a public forum.
It seems to me your main point of contention was that I didn't get back to you quickly, and for that I apologize; Your suggestion to implement an autoresponder in such cases will probably be acted upon. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to get back to you sooner, but there's also a reason why I haven't been active here in over a month.
Regards,
Enrique
