I got the greatest gear haul of my life today.

In: Traynor YBA-3 + PV 2x15, rehoused Driving Notion, favorite switch for my El Cap, and a MicroKorg. On temp trade, I got an Infanem STEP and Compact Faye Sing, and a Demo Tape Fuzz clone.

Out: Mountainking Magnetar (for rehousing) ss/bs Mini for SUPER SECRET SURGERY.

It was a good day.

One day I'll finally buy one of these. Probably when I stop blowing all of my money on pedals.

I'll tell you what I have anti-GAS for: anything from Midnight Amplification Devices. Dude is deleting posts of dissatisfied buyers from his Shark Tank noting that:

- He takes about four months to send pedals with no communication, and makes excuses instead of just taking responsibility
- Pretty much only sends pedals once you have filed a Paypal dispute
- Lies about when he ships pedals

I guess the only good thing is that of the half dozen ILFers I've been in touch with, everyone gets their shit eventually, it's just like pulling teeth to even get a fucking response. So note that I'm not calling this dude a scam artist or ripoff, just stating he is not being transparent. And in the end who gives a shit, they're just pedals, right?

I don't know Nic personally, maybe he's a great guy in real life. But I think it's pretty disrespectful to take money from people then just leave them hanging, make excuses when called out, and offer them hollow gestures like a discount instead of just owning up to being overwhelmed with orders or whatever the case, while listing new pedals and promising a delivery time of two weeks when others have been waiting four months.

Maybe this is bad form and I am usually pretty drama-averse, but deleting posts of dissatisfied buyers is pretty weak.

This is complete bullshit and a mod needs to step in and handle this in my opinion. I get deleting threads and posts that are damaging but you don't get to just fuck people over on ILF and get away with it.


We have a couple of folks on this forum that shouldn't be anymore. Mammoth anyone??? Seriously the worst service ever. Why the fuck are they on here?

[Chankgeez]

jwar, dude, wildebelor IS the moderator of the Midnight Amplification sub-forum.

He and Mammoth pay to have their Shark Tank spots. That's why they're still there.

Since I don't have a Shark Tank, I don't know what kind of agreement they have with Tom about what they are or aren't allowed to do. Maybe you can answer that question since you do.

Damn, I just went and saw my posts got deleted (except for the one where I talked about how good the pedal sounded). I mean shit, I wasn't even being mean in that thread, just said there was confusion / excuses with the shipping, and it took about 4 months to get my Holy Mountain. For shame. There's nothing wrong with telling people they'll probably have to wait 4 - 5 months when you're one guy with a lot of orders for pedals, but fer chrissakes, tell them.

[goroth]

Start a thread in general gear??
I understand chank's point but deleting posts in that way is poor form, and definitely testing ilf's one rule...
