Look, I just want to do a good job of running my store. Let's face it nectarsis, neither you or mike have purchased anything from my store in over a year. Neither of you have any real idea what kind of business we are running now and are really just chasing after ghosts imo.
I'll be the first to tell you that as we were growing we've made plenty of mistakes. Hell, we are a couple of 20-something guys who when we started barely spoke any Japanese. But every year we grow a bit more and learn a lot more.
Peso, I don't think it's right that you are trying to browbeat Nectarsis and others into having faith in you and your store.
As Nectarsis pointed out, Mike Helgeson isn't the only person to have spoken out negatively about your store. Look at Arkhan above, who didn't hear anything for four months...
Mike wrote a bad review of your shop on his website... and he gets a cease and desist message?
The way I see it, it is 100% on you guys to earn positive reviews from not only your buyers but from the gaming community at large.
Oh come on nec buddy. You know better than anyone how much junk he has saved up. I mean the guy still talks about how we left some power adaptors (which were sent out later) out from orders 2-3 years ago as damning evidence of what a terrible company we are. :/
All this because I banned him from my forums for flaming Missa. Absolutely ridiculous.
Look, I'm not actually going to press charges. I don't have time to jump on a plane over to WI. I just want him to drop the wild speculation and false accusations.
Mike's banning from your forums might have something to do with the vitriol in Mike's review, but as long as I've seen him post online he has always been concerned about shady sellers and has always taken it upon himself to let others know when someone is not doing business in an upright manner.
So overall, I read Mike's banning from your forum as completely irrellevant to the issue of the operations of your shop.
Laughable, yes. Also, almost certainly true. Mike is the self-styled Walker Texas Ranger of internet sales and trades of games, etc. The guy is posessed.
Don't f*ck up, or he's going to get you!
I bet he has an Exel template that he can plug dates into and it will determine, based on geographical location and shipping method, exactly how long it should take for your shit to show up and also if you overcharged for shipping by $0.75...and he will offer this service, for free, to anyone that needs it!
The guy is f*cking pathetic and needs help.
I don't see Mike's behavior, at least when it comes to pointing out shady sellers, as pathetic. Actually, I'm thankful that he's willing to take the time to do it. Also, he tends to be "for the good guys" and "against the bad guys" when it comes to online business dealings.
I don't see how looking out for the interests of innocent buyers is pathetic in any way. As Mike said in his review, there are a lot of people out there who may get taken advantage of, who don't want to rock the boat and speak up. Mike is willing to speak up for those people. I don't agree with bashing him for doing so.
