- Although the dealer I dealt with had many E-mail addresses,
I used one Flipper774@aol.com. His full name was Cris Adrian.
He also had many other aliases, propdealr@aol.com and the most
recent Impervium@aol.com. I found this to be very demeaning,
as he couldn't keep one address, but required multiples so he
could not be tracked. All started well and throughout the purchasing
process, he would answer my many letter cordially. It was not
until the final portion (ready to ship) time when I ran into
trouble. I had just read some propaganda about him stripping
molds off other peoples work and selling the poorly finished
product for a high profit. I found this to be very immoral. Well,
as my order went on and it was about time to ship, I requested
(although a bit more harsh) that he send my products by FedEx
COD. I stated I would pay the shipping costs, since the parts
I ordered were already paid for six-weeks earlier. He replied
with a blunt letter stating "Deal off." I was stupified.
There was nothing in my letter to cancel an order. I requested
a reply (which took some time to get) for the reasons why he
cancelled. All he could say was he didn't like being ordered
around by customers. In no way shape or form did I order him.
I made a simple request to ship on a provider other than the
US Mail. This has been later concluded that he wished to keep
the profits from shipping costs. It even included in his original
website (fractalcow.com/propdealr) that he could ship FedEx for
an extra cost that I was willing to send, but since I requested
COD, he replied negatively. As for the actual quality of this
hack artist's work, I have conjecture from many sources (available
upon request). I did receive the Bounty hunter armor vest, but
that was not his work either. He is NOT a professional seamstress
nor is the quality of the work of the seamstress. After the first
washing of the tunic, seams began to rip apart. It required immediate
attention and if strained it may fall apart or rip. I know it's
long, but it's the truth.
