So help me understand this...., if Bumper was your distributer and Bumper sent your money to JJP, how would JJP refund your money? How would he even be able to determine who and how much money to send back to? I don't believe JJP gets a list from distributers that would list who these games are actually being ordered for. Wouldn't that be documented by Bumper only, since JJP doesn't really care who the end user is in this case, only that Bumper ordered X amount of games they need to build and ship to Bumper?

I know this is the last thing I would want to hear if I were in your shoes but you guys really need to fight this on a legal angle in Aussie. I feel really bad for you guys and I'm not sure what I would do myself if this were to happen to me. I can't believe corporations can get away with this stuff in your country.

How do you know JJP isn't going to build these 22 machines?

Has anyone in your WF group tried to talk to JJP and see where they are on building these 22 machines? I'm just trying to come up with suggestions..

I don't believe this is true at all. In most cases a person applies to become an authorized distributer. If you meet their requirements, then they grant you as an authorized dealer. They don't pick up the phone book and ask Joe Shmoe if he wants to be a distributer.

The burden does not lie with JJP. There only obligation is to build what they were paid for, nothing more.

I was just there maybe over a week ago and i did notice several machines boxed and bound for Australia. I am almost positive they said Aussie LE, ....but they were there. Maybe a ray of hope. Hoepfully they are for the group and not just a distributer order.

I though the Aussie LE's were for the group, and anyone else in Aussie who wanted an EL but never got the chance because of the Bumper debacle?

Sorry, my mistake.

Hang in there guys. I dont think Jack is out to take anyones money. I think he has to be very careful given the circumstances. I dont think anyone knows all the details or what is invovled here. I beleive Jack will build the games he was paid for and him offering them at a discount is a very nice gesture.

Another thing, i dont think there is a person here who doesnt feel for those who got screwed by Bumper. So the comments of "well if this happened in America..." are uncalled for.

Most likely so. The situation is not as cut and dry as some people might think.

And I thought Jack was offering the LEs at a lower cost so the group would be sent as many as possible for a better chance of everyone recouping as much of their money as possible? Where did I read this?
