Wow Tollie, that blows bigtime! You would think in the guitar world there would be some unity, but nope, scammers are everywhere. The world sucks. At least sometimes. Im real sorry to hear it Bryan.

Thanks, Eric. I almost didn't post it since I am embarrassed that I got screwed, but I'd rather warn you guys about it since we all use amplifiers and this guy pretends to make pedals for tons of different models.

I just got off the phone with the detective. James has moved to a different jurisdiction (Portland, Oregan) so they cannot go after him. I'll have to give the Portland police department a call.

I'm 99% sure I have a switch by him. It was a clean transaction for me. Sorry yours wasn't.

EDIT! Sorry, mine is from Switch Doctor.

The pedal I eventually received was very high quality and well made.

That is really strange that this guy occasionally ships people a pedal, but at least 53 times he just kept the money and shipped nothing at all.

His last communication, before I even sent the money order, was that the pedal was done and ready to ship. ZERO communication since then.

Damn Bryan(or is it Byran?). Hope a little humor lightens things a bit. That sucks. Is there any way that you can use resources from your previous job to help? Or can we put our collective heads together to try to "re-scam" him?
