He was good about responding to me too for over a year (until about 2 weeks ago) and very good at excuses and stalling.

I have been waiting for a working machine since november 2011 when i got my first one that didnt work at all, like, didnt run.
I think it`s shady that he is willing to take peoples money for orders here (again) when he has had my money for so long and still not sent me the machines.

All that aside, I hope it works out for you! (and me...).
I think he has a lot of work to do to redeem himself in the eyes of many forum members.
