Thanks guys for your support.
I've spoken to him and the situation's like this:
He's all but given up both here and on the mercs site, which is why he doesn't answer PM's. He's not been here since October, not sure about mercs.
He's out of work and owes mommy and daddy money. He's spent all that I gave him.
A sale of a large prop (maybe the one up his a** :rolleyes) fell through and he was going to use this money to pay for shipping the rest of my stuff.
Someone else (possibly his imaginary friend
) may be buying from him next week and he's going to let me know. Just like he promised me over a month ago - then.... nothing. :wacko
So, basically all I'm getting is bullsh*t
I've been doing a lot of thinking and I find myself in a position I do not like in the slightest. However, if his sale (if it even exists) falls through again I think I'm gonna send him the money so he can ship my kit to me.
I would do this because if I don't, I fear I won't ever see the the really important bits of my costume (helmet, flak vest and armor). So I end up spending a little more to prevent myself losing a great deal of money.
this situation sucks big time
