wombat Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I'm not sure whatever happened with this in the past, but it appears something similar happened a few years ago. Randall Dowling and lizards2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never made a stink about it for the 2018 Troll King deal. I filed a Paypal claim, but all the correspondence was sent to an email I wasn't using very much at the time, and I missed the deadlines for reimbursement. However, when he came back in 2022, he PMd me, and offered to sell me the same TOZ book that I had already paid for back in 2018, and I told him that I had paid for that book already, along with three DC archives - never got the books, and I never got the money back. The archives were taken in the thread, the TOZ via PM. He said I was apparently the only one that actually paid from the 2018 threads. (In reviewing the threads, this appears not to be the case.) He said he had given the archives to his kids, so didn't have them anymore, but could ship me the TOZ. He did refund all of my 2018 money/payment in 2022, and said he was going to ship me the TOZ anyway, but I told him to keep it, as I didn't feel right about keeping the book if I was fully refunded. greggy, RockMyAmadeus and ThothAmon 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Dowling Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 FWIW, I purchased several books from him in the same sales thread and he did pm me after a delay, had been sick, but then shipped the books and included a really nice extra book for the inconvenience. My experience was very positive, all in all. @The Troll King, just give this buyer a heads up on status. I'm sure they just want to know that you're doing okay.

I tried buying the Vampi annual from him in 2018 but never got a response after asking for payment information. I think I even pm’d Lizards back then about his results but since he never got any money from me I moved on. I did get another Vampi book from him in this current sales thread got the payment info. quick enough and paid for and got the book quick enough. He sent me a screen shot of mailing address before sending book too. He’s doing a big move so maybe that’s an issue now? jimjum12 and Randall Dowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montezuma Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 Update Initiated a refund request with Paypal, but it most likely will fail since Paypal has tracking for the 9.0 he sent me instead of the 9.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehumantorch Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Sorry to hear about this. Looks like The Troll King has trouble following through on his promises and it appears to be a repeated behaviour. @The Troll King could you fix this problem please?

Hopefully the PayPal case works in your favor or the Troll King steps in and resolves this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NP_Gresham Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I think he holds some sort of record for the most strikes from his postings in the Water Cooler. He took this new name from his dealings there. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Dowling Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 FWIW, I remember him posting about the reason he was selling was because he was going to move to Belarus. Mainly, I just hope he's okay and we can get this sorted out. His daughter also has posted on the boards recently: @tiffleberry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crassus Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 @Montezuma hope you are well. It seems to me that you have been very patient, we are long past the 72hr rule, and at this point it is your right to have him added to the PL, if/when you wish to do so just post here to confirm and I'll add him. Hopefully the word will get through so this gets fixed, and of course update here if anything develops.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Montezuma Posted April 23, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2022 He shipped the book, so I'm only out the money I spent sending the 9.0 back to him.

I generally adhere to the philosophy that you paid $15 to never talk or deal with that person ever again - which is a bargain in the big picture.
