Quoted from vster23:Unfortunately I am one the people who was in on the predator pre-order. I was so excited to be in the Predator mix from the beginning. Predator was to be my first NIB pinball. All this Drama is taking a toll on me, it is making me physically ill. I can’t even look at the games I own without being mad and upset.
The person I blame the most for this fiasco is MYSELF!! I don’t understand how I could be fooled so easily for so long. I should have saw the flags when the Predator Scrub happened. I had met Kevin at two different Chicago Expos and played Predator a few games. He seemed genuine and honest, plus tons of enthusiasm. Had I known he didn’t have a license I never would have never paid in full.
I feel bad that Kevin’s actions are causing pinside members to fight amongst themselves. The manner in which people are treating each other on the Predator thread is terrible.
I have to stick around pinside now so I can figure out the best way to get my refund, if possible. Even if I get my refund , I don’t know if I can still like pinball. Pinball used to make me so happy.
I am getting outsourced at work so, I have to focus my time looking for another job and really don’t have time for pinball.
Hang in there man!!!...I got wrapped up reading the crap too, and didn't even have money in the Project....it's bad for pinball, and bad for anyone who wants to believe in the good in people first.
Is what it is, but things could be WAY worse....find your new gig, and enjoy the awesome machines you have. Don't ever let stupidity around you affect your outlook on life. ( because there is a lot of it out there)....mark
