PassTheLoot
We say Pass the Root ... not quite same ...
I LIKE USING CAPS, IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO READ... I'M ALSO O.K., WITH OTHER PEOPLE NOT LIKEING IT. IF YOU DON'T, THAN DON'T READ MY POSTS.
I BET HIS FAMILY CARES.
NEVER SAID HE DIDN'T HAVE THAT RIGHT.
GOOD, YOUR A BUSINESS MAN, YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND. I NEVER SAID THE GUY COULDN'T/ SHOULDN'T POST. I JUST SHARED INFORMATION THAT I FELT WOULD BE PERTINANT TO THE SITUATION.
I HAVE DONE BUSINESS WITH JACK IN THE PAST, AND CONSIDER HIM A FRIEND...... AND YES THE PHONES ARE TURNED OFF.
THAN I WOULD FEEL SADNESS FOR HIS FAMILY.
AGAIN, I NEVER SAID HE COULDN'T/SHOULDN'T POST.
SOME PEOPLE ARE A "1 PERSON SHOW"...... AND PEOPLE ARE HUMAN, AND BAD THINGS HAPPEN.
AGAIN, I NEVER SAID ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT THE OP, OR THAT HE SHOULDN'T HAVE POSTED. I WAS JUST SHARING INFO.

I was going to send you a PM but your box is full. Now would be a great time to become a club member you get double the PM space. :grin:I'm not mad at Sutton for not getting involved I just think he is very immature and should keep his thoughts to himself if he doesn't intend to say anything meaningful. The worst part is I was buying this cue for a friend of mine who is a beginner and doesn't have access to a computer, this was his first cue purchase and this is the introduction to the world of pool that he receives :frown:
Man I hope you get your refund or cue, but take it easy man. I got flat-out screwed on a cue by a guy named Matt Sclafani on ebay, and I never saw a cent or even a splinter from the cue, so I can truly relate to you. However, Marcus is a valuable member here, and would probably have helped you out if the attitude wouldnt have gotten so negative toward him. I have bought a few things from Marcus, and he is a great guy to deal with, so if his opinion or "speculation" is that Jack or Myra or who the hell ever will make it right, then I gotta believe him. I am also sure that Marcus cannot control what Jack does, so it is still very possible you got ripped. I REALLY hope not bud. I still get pissed thinking about my bad deal, but there was nothing I could do. At least Marcus and Dave know the guy, and might even try to get in contact with him. So lets all just calm down, drink a beer, (or kool-aid) and hope the dude gets well first, then makes the business right.

SOMETIMES SICK AND BROKE GO HAND IN HAND. I GUESS YOU OR ANYONE YOU KNOW HASN'T FALLEN ON HARD TIMES BECAUSE OF A SERIOUS ILLNESS. CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY.your "sick" friend doesn't sound sick he's sounds broke.
NO, BUT THEY TURN THEM OFF, WHEN YOU'RE SICK AND CAN'T WORK.last time i checked they don't turn your phones off for being sick.
NO ONE IN MY FAMILY WOULD HAVE MY PASSWORDS OR INFORMATION TO RUN MY BUSINESSES.and as far as him being a one man op there have been a few posters who mentioned a few different names they had spoken to. and if the guy's got family you're telling me no one in the family is going to watch out for his monetaty interest.
SO YOU ARE SURE THAT HE JUST "UP AND CLOSED SHOP"? AND THAT NOTHING ELSE COULD HAVE HAPPENED? I'M NOT SURE ONE WAY OR ANOTHER WHAT HAPPENED, I WAS JUST PROVIDING INFORMATION THAT WAS PERTINENT TO THIS SITUATION.nah - i am not buying any of what you're saying. no one was bashing just on speculation they are bashing your buddy because he up and closed shop and owes at least one of the poster's here money.
MAYBE, MAYBE NOT....... AND MOST LIKELY NOT AFTER A FEW WEEKS. BUT WHAT I WOULD OR WOULDN'T DO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE INFORMATION I PROVIDED HERE. I NEVE SAID THAT THE OP SHOULDN'T HAVE HIS SITUATION RESOLVED.with all of your itrader i am willing to bet if you didn't get restitution for a deal you'd be right here letting everyone know you got stiffed
POSSIBLY, AND I'LL TAKE YOUR WORD FOR THAT...... NOW, WHAT IF IT WAS A FRIEND OF YOURS THAT WAS SICK, AND COULDN'T WORK, AND DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION??? WHAT WOULD YOU DO IN THAT CASE?and if it was someone i knew who stiffed you i'd be calling my friend out on it.
THANKS, I'LL STILL CONTINUE TO DO WHAT I CAN. I UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE GET ANGRY AT EVERYONE IN THESE SITUATIONS. EVEN THE PEOPLE THAT TRY TO "HELP"However, Marcus is a valuable member here, and would probably have helped you out if the attitude wouldnt have gotten so negative toward him.
I CAN'T REALLY SAY HOW THIS IS GONNA WORK OUT, BUT I CAN SAY THAT JACK HAS STOOD BEHIND THE STUFF HE SELLS, AND HAS FOR YEARS. HE'S ALWAYS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING TO HELP THE POOL WORLD. BUT NONE OF THAT HAS ANY BEARING ON WHAT'S GOING ON NOW.I have bought a few things from Marcus, and he is a great guy to deal with, so if his opinion or "speculation" is that Jack or Myra or who the hell ever will make it right, then I gotta believe him.
I WISH I COULD CONTROL IT, OR GET IT TAKEN CARE OF RIGHT AWAY, BUT I CAN'T. HOPEFULLY THERE IS CONTACT SHORTLY.I am also sure that Marcus cannot control what Jack does, so it is still very possible you got ripped. I REALLY hope not bud.
I WAS ACTUALLY HAVING A TASTY BEVERAGE WHEN I TRIED CALLING JACK THE FIRST TIME.At least Marcus and Dave know the guy, and might even try to get in contact with him. So lets all just calm down, drink a beer, (or kool-aid) and hope the dude gets well first, then makes the business right.

I'M NOT TRYING TO "SELL" ANYTHING, NOR DID I SAY THAT THE OP SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN CARE OF. AS A MATTER OF FACT, I FEEL THAT THE OP SHOULD GET WHATEVER THEY FEEL THEY NEED TO BE HAPPY WITH THE SITUATION. I'VE NEVER SAID OTHERWISE. MAYBE IF YOU WERE LESS CONCERNED WITH MY CAPS LOCK, AND READ WHAT I WROTE, YOU WOULD KNOW THAT.

P.S. THE FIRST THING I DID WAS MAKE A CALL TO GET JACK TO RESOLVE THIS.
marcus,
i could give two s*its less about you or your caps lock. i did read what you wrote every time. your first post says you got tired of people speculating about what happened and you made a call. the phones were turned off. then what did you do - you said your friend had been sick a year and a half ago and you THINK that's what's wrong now. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm seems like your speculating there chief. i call people like a see them and if it was my friend i wouldn't just have called his business lines, i'd call his house phone, his family's phones, other friend's phones, guess you haven't gotten there yet. but i am sure you will since you seem so tight with thtis guy. what ever skippy i could care less. i am just sick of seeing people get burned on here. i don't care if it's because of sick or not.
I THINK YOU DO CARE, YOU'VE NOW MENTIONED THEM 3 TIMES.marcus,
i could give two s*its less about you or your caps lock.
I'M GLAD YOU READ IT, MAYBE YOU SHOULD WORK ON READING COMPREHENSION. YES, I SAID THAT I WAS TIRED OF SPECULATION, AND I DID SAY THAT I CALLED, AND THAT THE PHONES WERE TURNED OFF. BUT NO WHERE DID I SAY THAT THE INFORMATION I WAS PROVIDING WAS 100% ROCK SOLID. I WAS SHARING INFORMATION, THAT'S ALL. I'M HONESTLY STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT I SAID THAT WAS OUT OF LINE.i did read what you wrote every time. your first post says you got tired of people speculating about what happened and you made a call. the phones were turned off.
I CONTINUED TO DRING MY TASTY BEVERAGE....... I WAS PROVIDING INFORMATION. HAVE YOU CAUGHT ONTO THAT YET? I NEVER SAID I WAS SURE, OR THAT HE WAS DEFINATLEY SICK AGAIN.then what did you do - you said your friend had been sick a year and a half ago and you THINK that's what's wrong now. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm seems like your speculating there chief.
I'VE DONE BUSINESS WITH HIM...... I NEVER SAID I WAS "TIGHT" WITH HIM. I HAVE HIS BUSINESS LINE, AND THAT'S IT. WHY WOULD I HAVE OTHER NUMBERS FOR A GUY THAT I DO BUSINESS WITH. I DON'T GIVE MY CUSTOMERS MY HOUSE NUMBER, OR MY FRIENDS NUMBERS TO GET A HOLD OF ME, WHY WOULD JACK HAVE GIVEN ME HIS?i call people like a see them and if it was my friend i wouldn't just have called his business lines, i'd call his house phone, his family's phones, other friend's phones, guess you haven't gotten there yet. but i am sure you will since you seem so tight with thtis guy.
SKIPPY???? THAT'S AWESOME. I ALWAYS WANTED A COOL NICKNAME. IF YOU COULD CARE LESS, WHY KEEP POSTING ABOUT SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE YOU?what ever skippy i could care less. i am just sick of seeing people get burned on here. i don't care if it's because of sick or not.
I sure Marcus and Dave had the best intentions of Helping the original poster get his issue resolved .
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!You are not doing anything pro-active or constructive other than being an orfice for bodily excrement removal.
THANKS MATT..... I WAS PROVIDING BACKGOUND INFORMATION, AND SOMEHOW THAT WAS WRONG. COOL PART IS, THIS ENTERTAINS ME, AND MY SHOP IS SLOW THIS TIME OF YEAR.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
