Hello again,
Just wanted to follow up on a previous thread I started about my displeasure in doing a deal with Justabanger: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=156875&highlight=justabanger.
Please be aware when working this guy..."Tomorrow Never Comes".
Background (leaving out many details):
As you know I purchased a Sniper 2 j/b from him because he said he would send that money to Max Eberle to go to a 14.1 tourney. He said it was in very good condition. Well, when I received it, it was not.
It was packaged horribly so that when it arrived it was totally out of the thin layer of bubble wrap he used w/no tape. NO TAPE!!!!??? This caused scratches in the handle and a nice dent in the bottom of the shaft so when screwed together you can see it doesn't seat.
Plus, the cue when together is not straight. Each individual piece is straight so maybe it needs facing, but it is bad.
So I contacted Justin to resolve it. I suggested he send me $25 and I'll donate it to some young league player or have it refaced if that's the problem, or he can refund me the $100 + shipping and I'll return the cue to him. I just wanted to make it easy for him. Justin wanted to send me the $100 and I can do what I want with the cue, he said he just wanted to make it right. Here come the Tomorrows:
I'll send you the check tomorrow. 2 weeks later I contacted him that it was not received. I suggested he gets a $75 USPS money order and send it Priority. He said that the check was sent. So I waited another week, no check. Finally he said he would send me the money order tomorrow and stop payment on the check. After not receiving anything for 5 days I contacted him again. He said he didn't send it but he will send it tomorrow...he even said he got the money order from his bank (not USPS as agreed) and it will go out tomorrow.
Anyway, you get the idea. It's now been about 10 days since the last tomorrow and he has stopped answering my emails.
Justin seems like a nice enough guy when we talk (and he calmed down) but he has not followed through with any of his "Tomorrow" promises since this started. It was like pulling teeth to get him to send the cue to begin with (a few tomorrows sprinkled in that as well).
Thanks for listening

And just so you all know, this is the 1st time I have ever felt compelled to create this type of negative post and I don't like it. Justin just got on my last nerve throughout this whole process.
