warning about track pin purchases
 

For those of you who might attempt to order some new track pins from Mr. Rob Groves, I wish to share with you my experience.

On May 1, 2007 I paid him for a set of track pins. He assured me that they would be sent. Transaction completed through the use of paypal and records were kept.

After repeated inquiries he again reassured me in July that they would be sent.

On August 9, after inquiring AGAIN, he told me he didn't care if I advertised our transaction on this website as he didn't log in here or have anything to do with militaria anymore. I assumed this was tantamount to his agreeing that I should post the details here. He said I should "relax man"! I have been waiting 3 months at this point for him to mail them.

I will leave it to the readers of this post to make their own conclusions about the reliability and honesty of such an individual. I just wish to share my experience so that others may not need to "relax" so much after paying for a product in good faith and receiving nothing in return.

Thank you, John, I appreciate where you're coming from on this. Indeed, Mr. Groves hasn't been on here under his username "cmp_uc_guy" since March this year, so I'm presuming he has tired of the work he was doing as a fabricator.

Mr. Groves, if you'd like to refute or challenge what has been alleged in John's post, you are invited to do so at your earliest convenience.

I shall move a copy of this to the Sources Subforum in Restorations as well.
