i haven't seen him around since he moved out of town. he comes back to visit once in a while, but i don't know what he's up to. i wish i could see his collection in person again!
You too, J? That's what I'm afraid is happening. He came across as a nice guy, pretty genuine but the fucker just couldn't manage his money. Takes our money to "pre-order" stuff, use up the money couldn't pay the toys, then gave us some bullshit story that the toys didn't show up. Anraku Ansaku, if you or your contact is reading this, John Murray is a douchebag that has been accusing you of taking his money and not sending him the figures. He's been doing this for more than 2 years now.
i am friends on facebook with John Murray, i think because of my being friends/facebookilly involved with Wayne Ho (who is totally awesome, by the way! his baltan collection is unbelievable!). ANYWAYS! First, I never knew he was The Lost Kaiju, and second, I will send him a message for you all to see what is up.
^Thanks, S_L_M. Appreciate it. FYI, I know there're more that'd been scam and he did try to make good by refunding the money. I'm not sure how many got back their money but definitely not me and J.
He'd probably not open it since he knows who its from. I used the paypal email instead. I've been extremely patient and polite but it's gone on long enough. All the cock and bull stories and excuses. When he started blaming Anraku, that's when I thought this guy is totally lame.
John is a douchebag, plain and simple. If he wanted to, he could make this right for all that are owed. (me included)
