The "TRUTH" about CAF

[Captain Australia-migratio]

Plus just how responsible are the people who run caf, many believe that The Original Comic Art Market has peeked and is now ready to crash, surly the success of the caf site has to except some responsibility for this.

Vince,

I agree that CAF has an obligation to its members. Wwhich is to protect them from shysters and con artists who try and take advantage of them thru fraud or lies.

[Captain Australia-migratio]

Keeping fees paid by members, who are the con artists their ?,

THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE

THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE

 

not "their".

[Brian Peck]

Yes, If you break the agreement you signed up with CAF, you will forfit any money paid for the service.

[malvin]

You know, you may have a point about the membership fees. I passed on a note to Bill to let him decide.

 

Regardless of that, surely you see what you did was wrong or do you still think there is nothing wrong with that?

I’ve noted by some of the comments that some of you think I am two or three people that you have known in the past ?, possibly because this issue has been raised before at some point then squashed ? What I am doing here is simply bringing the issue regarding caf to a place for comment.

[Captain Australia-migratio]

there, sorry

[Brian Peck]

But you don't give any concrete examples of CAF not treating its members properly. Because if you did you would show your true colours and we would all see its just another scam.

How would it be possible to scam from this ? once a member is bared where does he or she go to voice his or her opinion, his or her side of the story if not to a place such as this, you might be one of the “in” group who can call the owner by his first name and manipulate the caf gallery for ego benefit, that I do not know BUT their is a small group that does.

[Captain Australia-migratio]

imagine you went to view your caf gallery one day and just couldn’t connect, no reason given, your a paid up member but you have be bared, possibly the management of caf had a good reason to bar you BUT they should have warned you first or said something AND DEFIANTLY OFFERED A PART REFUND OF YOUR FEE.

[font:Book Antiqua]Your conspiracy theory and inner circle sounds cool,

could you elaborate...?[/font]

 

 

[Flint Ironstag]

Richard Rae, you swindled a number of collectors, tried to chisel others, and got called out on it. Demanding your money back from CAF is like an airplane hijacker demanding frequent flyer miles.

 

Being barred (not "bared," you submoron) is the least penalty you could pay for your transgressions against our hobby.

 

You are an abomination in the eyes of god and man. Every time you attempt to con someone into buying your misrepresented lightboxed art, an angel gets set on fire and baby Jesus cries a tear for the world that you stain with your perfidy.

 

On a positive note... hey, David/Ucleben! Drop me a message if you can! A while back, you offered up a page from a book that a friend of mine is trying to reunite, so I want to put you guys in touch with each other. I tried PMing a few times, but maybe they're not getting through. Thanks, man!

How I see that it works is a small group of ego driven members either like or dislike another member, if they dislike the other member they start emailing each other then put in a mass amount of complaints to the caf management, an amount of complaints that can’t be ignored, all organised, I’m not suggesting conspiracies are everywhere BUT their are some in caf.

[malvin]

Its not a matter of dislike. It's a matter of warning others of artwork that is being misrepresented so that they do not get swindled

Case at point.

there, are you doing this on purpose?

[Captain Australia-migratio]

An original page of comic art is placed in a caf gallery and is for sale, if one of the small ego-group like the art and want to buy it they then start sending negative emails to the seller, saying his price is to high and he is a con man, stuff like that, if the seller does not drop the price to what the buyer wants then that members name is rubbished around other caf members, negative comments are left on the sellers items in the gallery plus he is run down in the chat rooms, then the name calling gets worse and unfounded accusations are levelled at the seller, THIS IS BULLYING !, Anyone should be able to list their item for the price they wish without BULLYING, then if people think the price is to high they just won’t buy it BUT if someone is willing to pay the asking price that should be fine.
