...with an address in the same city as SS?   Offering to send spinners with modified boards to work with 60-in-1's?

Sounds like SS to me.

If it isn't Christian it's the Mascari Brothers.

Most bottles and jars contain at least twenty-five percent recycled Pacman.
And research indicates that Space Invaders are strongly attracted to people who have recently eaten meat pies.

Ddidn't someone say there's an attorney gather a case for this?  You can be sure he's on here snooping around, I wonder if someone should set them up before they get wind that people are onto them.  Like, get a cop sent there, in person, to get his info, by signing for a package or some kind of delivery. 

What they've done went beyond 'oops' and way into the criminal territory, knowingly taking people's money.  Whether it's via the internet or a physical store, a scam is a scam and they bilked a lot of you guys out of your hard-earned money for something that is supposed to be a fun hobby.

I missed the whole thing that happened with SlikStik.  What is the lowdown on what happened?  He steal people's money or what?

But bring your popcorn,  a couple beers and a pack of smokes because you're going to be reading for a long time.

Yeah seems likely. Just saying that if not Christian then someone who somehow got hold of the inventory of SlikStik.

BTW didn't realize that Nutley NJ and Belleville NJ were so close.

Check out the other auctions for lighted ball top sticks and steel stick handles.
He's Baaaaaaaack!

Randy at GroovyGameGear.com can supply most of what is being sold and you can sleep at night by buying from Randy.

On ebay the negative feedback would drive him out of business quickly though.

Either way, he shouldn't be in any kind of business until his debts are paid to the people who lost money to him... THEN he can go ahead and start it up again.  He has too many unfulfilled orders at the moment that he should be worrying about (fortunately I'm not one of them but it still pisses me off).

Maybe that's why he has a 0 feedback rating (new user) assuming of course that it's him.  It's obvious the account is brand new.
