I filed police reports with the local authorities there and here. I filed an FBI Internet Crimes Commission report as well. Haven't heard anything from any LE organization. When I talked to the Jackson PD, they basically said they have so many cases of fraud to muck through that they can't get to them all... they just don't have the time, money or manpower to care. Talked to a lawyer as well. He said unless it was just to prove a point and I had a lot of money to blow, don't waste my time. I'd never see the cue again and I would just end up paying 10 times more than it was worth and even if I did win, I still wouldn't get sh*t.
Nothing I can do.
As far as Jess June goes... he doesn't care. He's essentially done making cues anyways. I doubt he picks it up again for anything other than a hobby. Why would he in this economy? So, don't hold your breath to hear from him.
For me.... this issue is dead. I've done all I can other than buying a $2000 plane ticket and showing up on his door step which I still think would be worthless and in Tennessee.... might get me shot.
Lesson learned. I don't buy cues online anymore or do much else other than shop from reputable stores. Just the way it is. Too much chance for nefarious behavior and too little checks and balances.
Have a good Thanksgivings folks!
