PlainWhiteTK Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hello all, I'm seeking some legal advice for Small claims court against a vendor who has sold to 501st members. I won't bore you with the the long story, but if you can offer any help I would be most appreciative. Thank you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin-X[TK] Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Interesting post. I'm afraid you need to elaborate a bit before anyone could possibly assist. Typically, small claims court is a last resort and depending on the cost of the "item" or "items", could cost you more than it's worth. Any details you can share?

TKittell[501st] Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I second that. In the end, it will probably cost you more time and money than it's worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlainWhiteTK Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Paid for a TK commission last April for 1200(I know, I was naive), and I've yet to receive anything except the bucket(He even originally told me he could finish it in 2 weeks). He's a well known 501st member and is very hard to get ahold of in the fact that he usually just ignores my messages until I tell him I'm going to post on the forum about him. Personally I've had enough with it. I've been nothing but patient, and he continually prolongs the time, always coming up with excuses for not having it done, usually blaming life getting in the way. Hasn't even responded to me since the end of November, despite me pleading with him multiple times about wanting the armor to troop with for TFA. PayPal couldn't help me and the members I've talked to that know him haven't been able to do anything. I don't even know if it's finished or not, but he hasn't even told me or given any indication.

Griffin-X[TK] Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 May I ask who this is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlainWhiteTK Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm just hoping to get this sorted out without having to publicly name him, so I'm not prepared to do so yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesnarles Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 As a paralegal I'm interested, but forbidden to give any specific advice. Always a good idea to do your homework because usually you'll only get one chance. Hope it gets resolved satisfactorily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin-X[TK] Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm just hoping to get this sorted out without having to publicly name him, so I'm not prepared to do so yet I'm also in DFW and part of the Star Garrison. Hit me up if you want to chat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airborne Trooper[501st] Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 What kit was it? Does he offer the kit and assembly in that price or is this on top of the initial armor kit price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlainWhiteTK Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 ATA I believe. It was for everything. Assembly, painting, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) It probably wouldn't hurt to get in touch with Mark, (captsafe66) who is the Provost Marshal, to see if he can offer some guidance.
