That depends entirely on the people actually involved in the transaction. This guy hasn't hurt a single person, and has helped many. Piling on and trashing him and other folks, as has happened sadly in the past, hurts our hobby. He's not in the same situation as vendors who have ripped people off. It boggles my mind completely that people don't see the difference.

Bender:

look, we're all disapointed that the star wars yoke seems to be on indefinate hold, but he has offered and refunded to everyone who asked for it
what else could he do?

Thanks.

Stop bullshitting the community perhaps?  By his own account everything is done aside from powder coating certain parts.  I call BS.  I've never heard of powder coating taking over a year?!  But since I don't have $$$ involved in this my opinion doesn't mean squat...

...this yoke is the Duke Nukem Forever of the MAME community.

I don't know the guy so I can't comment on any of the past history.

However as FrizzleFried said according to his own site and blog everything is done except the handle powder coating (how on earth could that take so long though?).  I emailed him and asked if I could buy one sans the grips and then I'd just put on a set of either Happ's grips with the thumb buttons or even the handles off a Road Blaster... I would be perfectly happy with that if the rest is as high quality as it sounds.  I never got a response back.

Usually I take a lack of response as a bad sign.  I understand he's probably busy, but it gives off a bad vibe to potential customers when they feel like they've been blown off.  Even a reponse saying no would be better than no response at all.

Maybe he will get these done someday.  Sad thing is by that time I'll probably have a yoke from someplace else by then.
