    Quoted from beelzeboob:

    This thread is starting to bore me. Can we get back to the subject of me possibly getting a check in the mail? That was much more interesting. I'm about to start a GoFundMe to get my Escalera fixed if I don't see some jing coming my way soon.

    I am sure the check is in the mail....it has been delayed because of COVID. Once that is done you will get your check, barring any other pandemics, natural disasters, sunny days, cloudy days, extreme temperatures, UFO sightings. But your check is in the mail.

    Quoted from beelzeboob:

    Just an update: gorillabiscuits has offered to buy the Otakuscalera provided we can come to an agreement on price. And we will. He's local, and he gets great kudos for stepping up to help me out. I'll be buying him a yuppicide shirt as part of the deal.
    Zach will work with me on replacing it. I'm thinking about the forklift option...anyone have experience with that?
    And I'm very excited to wear my #paytheboob shirt at the next Pinfest in 2025.

    I have been following this story all the way back when the kid’s Grandma’s basement was flooded. Boob was nice enough to lend his Escalera to him only to receive it damaged upon return. I am tired of no good deed goes unpunished!! ZMeny i am calling you tomorrow to donate to Boob’s new Escalera!

    Boob is a music teacher, my major in college, his dedication is very much appreciated. He shouldn’t have to pay for another Escalera because he did a good deed.

    I usually do these type of things anonymously, but my contribution won’t be enough to cover it. I am hoping we can make this right.

    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    I like boob and feel bad for him but I don’t think he deserves a free escalara on the pinside house.
    We all make mistakes and we all learn from them. Giving a complete stranger the use of a brand new $1500 tool to move 30-40 (!!!) games with was a mistake, as well intentioned as it was.
    Totally fucking nuts, really.

    I want to make this clear, Boob did not come on pinside asking for money. I was the one who said I was going to chip in to help. I am glad he is nuts, went out of the way to help someone in need and got burnt. It happens, but I felt he deserved someone being nuts to help him.

    I dealt with ZMeny and did a paypal transfer. Zach was understanding and gracious.

    If you see somebody in need help out, no matter how nuts it is. Boob did that!! If you see something wrong try and make it right. That is what I did; but don’t chastise those who act in good faith because it is nuts.

    Finally Boob I am sorry for bringing this onto you. As I said in my original post I usually do this anonymously, but I thought if it bothered me then it probably bothered other pinheads.
