Ah, sorry. I checked the very last page and the first page(saw the red text stating he had room for 1 sanwa left) I just checked the second to last page and saw his ‘retirement’ deceleration.
Sorry, my goof.
Where oh where could our PaintedPale be, oh where oh where could he be?
oh wheres my stick?
Yeah, where is it?
yo paintedpale do you still have that sanwa spot open?
I really want to play Neo Geo Battle Coliseum with it:sad:
Paintedpale ur messagebox is full anyways i need a custom sanwa stick so PM me or IM me on aim on my sn nicktoon516 when u can i’d appreciate it.
It saddens me to see people so unresponsive to their paying customers, but I guess that’s the risk of purchasing sometimes.
It saddens me to see quality builders retire. I’ll miss seeing your new creations PaintedPale.

DAMN! i contacted every1 still i can’t find any1 to make me a custom sanwa stick.
man i am worried :sad:
I wouldn’t sweat it yet.
This has been the patern. There has been “a step,” then " a absense," and then a contact/update. I would say give it a bit more time. This has been the M.O…
The sticks are built, you’ll get them somewhere/sometime. (I hope.)
yeah I know its just like “damn!” its already 2008 and I still aint got my stick
Anyone here know where I can find my Blank stick? Ive been looking around my home but I have yet to find it. Perhaps “SOMEONE” in this thread can show me my stick and perhaps mail it to me too.
yeah much help is needed. I would really like to play :wgrin:
I wouldn’t jump to conclusions, while no one came to aid my thread, when people bombarded it with bs, because I never lost communication, and everyone knew what was going on from people who didn’t even order one of my sticks, I think its unjust to post nonstop negative feedback on the thread. And I don’t want to see another thread derailed.
I think the mistake was to lose communication though, mind you, you guys should never be left in the dark, that I agree is a problem.
Heres my suggestion, being a builder, and I bought stuff before,
Get their phone number, I personally give my number to anyone who does business with me, though no one calls me to say hi or anything. Try to get as much personal information as possible. Send them a real life letter if need be.
If you feel to much time has passed, ask for a refund.
The best way to refund someone is simple, give the builder of your stick a little bit of time, a week or two, or how much time you can spare, so they can transfer the funds, or sell your stick as a premade, or change it for another customer. Cooperate with your builder, we are normal people just like you, just because you paid, not all that money goes into our pockets, and its not so easy to just refund off the bat. Every time we refund, we lose money trust me, unless your lucky and sell the stick AS IS, and fast. Though we try, when I had to issue a refund, I went into debt, screwed myself and paid interest, but I did it, but its always more pleasant, when both parties cooperate.
If communication is completely closed, for more than a month, and calling them or sending a letter is not an option or not working, then I would start using the tools at hand, start a paypal dispute, but only if the builder has not responded to you at all. In this case, there were pictures of the sticks, I believe, so they should be coming.
If you started a dispute, but your out of the paypal window, and or can’t act on it, and your seller isn’t verified or confirmed, then your screwed out of normal options. Personally I am verified and confirmed, if theres a dispute with me, my bank account is frozen, and money is sent automatically to escrow until I deal with the dispute. But thats not always the case with your seller, but check those two things. Then you have to take it to court.
Laters
The bottomline, Painted, has been here a long time, has a great track record, and makes great sticks. He defaulted on time, which something obviously happened and caused that, so I would try to contact him, and if you feel time has passed to much, WORK with him towards a refund, give him time to recoop or transfer funds. Otherwise wait patiently recieve your stick, and feedback accordingly to how you feel you were treated, fairly unfairly etc.
Following those steps should lead to a pleasant transaction, again painted been here forever, I have a good feeling hes taking care of the situation. But good luck to both parties, I suggest you don’t really keep posting on this thread, until your forced with legal action, or he basically tells you hes not delivering and keeping your money (not likely) etc. A customer waiting on a late stick, is always right, and has every right to be annoyed. But posting in a forum without communicating with the builder is the worst way possible to deal with it, until your forced with legal action. At that point, you must feedback, so people don’t fall into the same problem.
^ thanks for the tips
Ive seen feedback on paintedpale hes good. Its just that lately he hasnt really been consistent.
-I just got a fortune cookie and it said this "you will be expecting a package this upcoming week"
no lie.
Well, I did not want to go there.
I placed my stick order about the beginning of Oct. I have asked for a refund thru his e-mail. I only post once in a while asking for an update.
I understand he has gone thru a personal loss, It does not really make me want to make him go thru any real other hardship financially. I believe I am well over the refund window thru paypal.
Everyone else got a preview of what their picture looks like.
Like Painted said “my stick should of been finished first”. Yet I received no preview picture of what or where my stick is.
If you feel I am going overboard on these post, then I will gladly comply with a request to not post negativity on any kind. Hence it is my loss and my loss only. or delay whichever sounds better.
