Been well over a year for me. I aint gettin nothin. I just keep this goin to keep newbies from going through what I went through. I've done enough deals with many folks here and this is the only problem I had.

Car Driving2

Phil,...Did you ever meet him and buy him dinner ?

I for one would love to hear the real deal about this guy....

I smell a rat........

And it would be nice for the new people on here

To know exactly who they are dealing with

I wish someone had spelled it out for me in plain english....

Perhaps his title should be

MIKEY777 i will ship whenever i damn well please

And you should be honored to do business with me!

Mike ahl, ken ahl, whoever you are

Shame on you! Phone number linked to paypal is not you..

Your address on paypal is not you.....

Your ebay account has been closed...

You dont answer your emails

You havent cleaned out your private msgs so I cant contact you there!

Love this forum but I have learned a lot ....

And someone on here when i first joined

Told me to throw away my rare green vistalite bass drum

Because they said it could never be repaired...

And I could get a new rci replacement shell for oh..... Six or eight hundred bucks.

Glad I never took that advise! Just sayin!

Take personal responsibility. Accept it when you make a bad decision and learn from it and let it go.

Hello... I have one father and he died years ago..

Why should i take advise from you....

Have you ever dealt with mikey777 and been ripped off..?

Have i ever dealt with you...?

I noticed your posts..........

Mind your business. Then.........why comment?

If you dont like my posts, or me.

Simply dont read the posts.....

Or block me....

People like you. Are starting to ruin this place.......

Really,....If your Bonham vista is cracked,...it aint worth a nicke !i I know it wasn`t me that told you to chuck it,..but it aint worth a nicke if it`s cracked !i

Yes, I'm new here and forget my place at times. Sorry.

All I'm trying to relate is this is blown way way out of the realm of real.

You don't have to take advice from anyone. I'm not riding you. I'm offering a tiny bit of truth. Take it. Don't take it. Doesn't matter. It's your life.

I don't know you and could never formulate an opinion as to whether I like or dislike you. That's not possible.

And yes, I did have a very bad deal with Mikey. It cost me a near perfect 1960 gold sparkle Slingerland snare with wood hoops.

But, the thing is, I chose to admit I made a bad choice in dealing with him. The responsibility lay on me and me alone. I learned a lesson. I moved on.

Cool.. I posted before i thought about what i was really saying..

I didnt mean to personally attack you..i apologize...

In fact i deleted on of my earlier responses after i had some time to think about what i had written.....

This whole thing has got me so mad......

I am sorry to hear about your transaction

But that just bolsters my point

I think we should have a thread on here

That names those who have been slow to ship

Or just plain ripping people off.....

I would have liked to have seen the posts of people to avoid dealing with

Instead of one with a link to one seemingly sponsored by the admin...

But i posted all of that in a previous post....

Again my apology for the heated response....

hey guys,

i did business with drummers around the world. it was always based on trust and honesty. i sold stuff from japan to the us and, as i sit here, in europe too!

i usually start with buying small things bevor i trust a seller fully. so i will not

have lost much, but i would be really angry if he would try to rip me off!

so is mike going to send the stuff or what?

=>no items send, no happy sonorfan!!!

maybee mike can answer to this?

No Doubt! I bought a Camco shell from him and that was after a year or so of reading complaints of slow shipping...So be patient, he hasn't ever ripped anyone off here...And Phil V. from Scottsdale? Yeah Right!!! I was born and raised there and never have I ever even heard of someone being so petty from Scottsdale...You maybe saw it in a magazine once...Lol...More like Blythe or Riverside maybe...(Eponymous County)
