nah. no deals with them anymore. thomas is doing everything with his buddy now on their own.
no major problems, no more parts missing since they parted.

yeah... imagine how i felt. people told me there were certain things in their cabs that i stored in my shop. when they came... this stuff was missing and i felt terrible because i was all new to the community... and was afraid they might think that i took the stuff. :(

yes. but this guy is the guy who is doing the us stuff with Thomas now. And guess what? C3 and C4 went as smooth as a baby butt! :)
he takes so much better care than coinop. the cabs are really well prepared for the journey. nothing is missing. i was really happy with how everything went with the bitburg delivery.

I was told the cabs had been stored in a restricted area. Then, a few days later, an employee OR A CUSTOMER was suspected of having ripped the cabs (bad english?). Feel free to make your own conclusions...

There´s no doubt in my mind that you speak the truth! - this is such a small community, so if anybody would do anything wrong, it would only be a matter of time before we found out, and they did too on the other side of the pond... (Mikonos..)

Oh yeah.. Mr. Mikonos. :)
There was stuff stolen all over the place. It did not only happen to the candys from ChrisChris. :) It was not only the stuff that was stored here.
Nah.. this did happen in the US.

What's the Mikonos and Chris' candy story about? Never heard of these...

Reason for Lloyd not working with me anymore is my US partner Chase. He is an ex employee of Coinopwarehouse and Lloyd claims he stole a lot of parts from him when he worked there. Like A LOT! Chase had an ebay store back then, so it makes enough sense to be a working hypothesis. Coming up with any evidence is another story. Somehow Lloyd seems not to be able to even imagine that there is a world out side of Coinopwarehouse. Like a world with arcade game parts for sale?

I didn't say anything regarding this as I want to wait for the outcome of the trial he brought upon his ex employee. I wont say anything specific regarding this matter for now. The trial should be over sometime soon, if its gonna happen at all.

What I will say:

I am convinced that Chase, my US partner is innocent and got crushed financially and socially for no reason at all.

Thanks for clearing that up and partly reminding me, now that you explain it it all comes back. Now I also remember why I had kicked coinopwarehoise from my Facebook...
