Mega24,

Who do you think MADE the mess left by SlikStik ?

Get your head around this concept :

Christian will ship product to people Christian wants to ship product to.

Do you also chat with the Mormans and the Jehovah's Witness for over an hour, when they come knocking on your door ?

Or just can't bring yourself to say "NO" to those so-called friends who try to flog you Amway products ?

Maybe you've fallen for a $5,000 whiz-bang vacuum cleaner being sold door-to-door ?  Perhaps you even agreed to sign up for the VIP installment plan, at 28.95 % interest ?

Mega24, you seem like a champion guy ...

But there are lots of people out there, who'd like to make a quick buck off you.  Sometimes you need to step back, take a long hard look at things, and smell the BS through the trees.

From what I have been able to surmise, Scott works at / operates a fabrication company that builds custom wood furniture/cabinets/etc. Mameroom is just one facet of the business. He is in Ohio. Christian is in NJ. Scott buys the control panels from Christian because the designs and layouts are great and Christian is very knowledgeable and his products are superior and use some of the best parts available. That being said, Scott does not offer ALL SlikStik products on his page. Only the ones that he can fabricate and ship himself in case of an order NOT being filled by Christian. For example, Mameroom will not offer the Quad FS panel because they cannot fabricate control panels with the flight stick that SlikStik uses.

Please do not mistake anything I have said to be an excuse for bad business practices or a defense of people being ripped off. I just want everyone to consider the fact that control panels ARE being shipped and products are being received by those who have placed/are placing orders. I wonder what it will take to convince people?

BTW, I would like to know who, among all the posters here, have actually ordered and NOT received a SlikStik product? These are the people who have a legitimate gripe and I would love to hear current status for them. I have no trouble reaching Christian OR Scott BTW, so if anyone cant get in touch with them, please let me know and I will try and help.  :)

Fair question ... they're my tongue-in-cheek way of dealing with the frustration of having been accused of being selfish by continuing to post my opinion and supporting facts, while the people who had the temerity to demand my silence continued to run roughshod.

Unfortunately, you really don't have a clue here - you know why the overlays aren't being shipped? Because SlikStik isn't paying the supplier! They owe me quite a bit of money as well for ads, and after a year of waiting, I sent them to a collection agency -- they promised the agency they would pay, then Christian promptly disconnected his cell phone and got a new number.

There's no way this is an ethical business practice, and unless a miracle happens I'm afraid things are only going to get worse...

Kev ... did you end up receiving payment for this advertising ??    ???

Yet ANOTHER reason why this thread is crucial.


--- End quote ---

Nope, although Steele Publishing is now officially listed as a creditor with SlikStik's lawyers. I guess that means I've got a place in line...

Sniping and griping aside, there's still a lot to be learned about what's going on, which is why I'm monitoring this thread (and digging through all the flamewars)
scottp:
For what is is worth, Christian was able to settle the bill with my company, though I am sure it was a much smaller bill... 

I have been in contact with Christian and regularly shipping overlays to him over the past month or so.  So I know he is getting things out the door now and as we have seen people are starting to get their products.  I am hopefull over the next month or so we will see other people receiving their products and things will settle down.
