The current status of Ram Controls:
matsadona:
It is a bit amazing that the people crying most about the whole thing is people that have not done any business with RAM controls, less have been screwed.
People that has been screwed are of course entitled to yell about what a bad person Dave (or whomever it was behind that company before) and that they want their money back. Strangely there hasn't been many of those who surfaced here yet.
Now we have a situation that somebody stepped in and took over not only the stock, but also some of the business. As it appears it also seems that this person is trying to help thoose who has been screwed by the previous owner. He had no obligation what so ever to do that. As stated before, he could just put it all on ebay and try to do as much profit as possible, to reclaim his debt from Dave.
Now, he is trying to salvage the business and keep the parts accessible to the comunity and also has the intention to keep up the business in the future.
It is amazing that more people are bashing than supporting him. I really thought that this communit was more supportive than that.
Of course, in the best of worlds Dan had a lot of cash and paid back all debts. Not because of that he has to, just because he has the intention to reclaim a good reputation of a business that hopefully will be successful in the future and bring more parts to the arcade community.
Give him some slack and a fair chance to show he is the real deal. It might take 1, 2 or maybe 6 months before he has enough time and cahsflow worked out to go through all back orders. I think that is just fine, if the alternative is to be screwed forever by Dave.
If he can do some paralell business with new customers, to both guarantee future business and the continued back orders delivered that should be fine too.
It would be more constructive if those with delivered back orders step forward rather than having the same person spamming this thread with constant wining about how tainted the company and pourly updated the webpage is.
So once again - what is the best situation for those with backorders/debts and the comunity in total?
* everything goes down the drain and a lot of people will be screwed forever and no more part available
* somebody actually gets a fair chance to make things right (even if it take some time before everybody is happy)
Of course, everybody is entitled to an opinion, and as a soldier it is my job to make sure you are also allowed to express it. But some songs are getting old here now. We all know already that Dave messed up and that he ows a lot of money to a lot of people. That is history. Pleae look forward and help Dan to help others!

And just to keep this info within easy access:
If you are owed something from Ram Controls please send me an email at:
sales@ram-controls.com
and I will work to take care of you. I have a business plan that includes compensating all buyers of Ram Controls items EVEN those who purchased the ill fated Star Wars Cabinets. This will take time to implement and I will cover more details of this plan soon. I have a lawyer, CPA and other past business executives helping me with this but I need to make sure I have the details correct before I make a bunch of public posts about it. I am already in a rough situation I do not need to make it worse by shooting myself in the foot. The best thing to do if you are owed something is send me an email and start the conversation going.

So let me get this straight... Duke Nukem Forever has actually been released AND Ram Controls looks like it has a future?
We are so doomed.

Just as long as this business plan does not involve time shares in Tijuana, selling sets of knives and encyclopedias, or a wealthy prince in Nigeria, we can't wait to hear about your plan! ;) 8)
