Well, here we are again.
Looks like Der Soldat (Richard) isn't one who can be trusted to:
- do jobs in a timely matter
- respond to PMs or emails
- Send items back
- Do the job requested
- Keep the customer in the loop as to progress
Way back in November, Richard wanted some items I had. We arranged a deal that he would get the items I had, and he would paint 1 set of hands, 1 M1 carbine, and 1 MG42. Items were shipped (and received by him). No word on what was going on.
End of January came up. I PM'ed him asking him for the status, since I figured it shouldn't take 2 months to paint the items. Got the standard "been busy, can't get the job done right" response.
Eventually March rolled around. I asked Richard to kindly send me my items back, regardless of the status. He said he would, once he could get to the post office.
Now it's May. Emails and PMs go unanswered, leaving me with no way to contact him.
I guess full maturity hasn't set in yet. When you promise to do a job, DO IT. Don't cop out with excuses, and send the customer their items WHEN THEY ASK FOR THEM.
Good thing he doesn't really come around here any more (claims the mods of the board sent him "hate mail" so he doesn't come by any more).
Beware. Stay away from him doing any jobs for you or trading with him.
