So about a year ago when I found out RVL8 and release bindings , and the skiboardonline store and this forum . I wanted to start my collection getting something good for family and friends and the best for me.
I did some reading up and figured what’s for me will be brand new and the loaners could be used.
I started fast and furious without any caution , and boy has that bitten me pretty bad.
I found someone selling some cool looking boards that I haven’t seen before for sale on the Facebook connection. Seller by the name of Brett Connor. Did a little look up on him to see he was once a rider for RVL8 and they even named a board after him. The Condor . I’ve hear nothing but good things about the board so with Mammoth getting snow as often as the sunshine in LA I was in for buying a pair of his originals from him. I also got a pair of revolts with non release bindings , just because.
So figuring this is a reputable guy I seen him money thru PayPal and as friend so there’s no fee to him . I kick down 550 for everything .
So the first promise comes in that he’s shipping them out come Monday when the ups store will be open. I wait about a week and a half and NO DELIVERY. This happens for about 7 months promise after promise excuse after excuse , lye after lye . Finally I threaten to get in and get a small claims court claim started , so one last promise that he will refund my money .. and another 3 months of weekly check up for when the money is getting to me .. always the same ... excuse after excuse
I know this is long but the moral of this is never send this crook (Brett Connor ) a penny , his word is worth nothing.
Dam pity that since then I’ve not bought anything from anyone again. He really put a bad taste in my mouth.
I guess it’s good for SBOL and Spruce as I’ve only bought new items since that bad deal.
Thanks for reading ..Tom
