I am not one to really speak on these things but I was personally stolen from by Mr. Zenk. I was unaware I was stolen from for a significant amount of time, then when I called to ask him about the matter I was told his autistic child found his wife dead in a pool of blood. Ay that moment I was concerned for a human being on the other side of the coin. I didn't bother joe and assured him I would be there for him if he needed anything. When I hung up I felt like a piece of trash because I was calling about my property and a man's wife was lost. None of this was true however. I found out by a mutual acquaintance telling me that I was dreaming and this dude is a known scam artist. I then spoke with some of our staff and other individuals I knew within the pinball community. I reached back out to zenk and he then began some of the thing antics that are described in this thread. "you theatened my son" "I have dirt on you and I'll tell everyone, etc". I just simply told him that his wife was not dead. That was not cool to pretend that and I will see him in court of some manner. Unfortunately for him I now have what I need to proceed with court. Video footage at my shop, testimony from employees that helped him and a paper trail. If anyone wants to join me in this venture that has been wrong by Mr. Zenk aka being "zenked". Please reach out to me here and I will help you in your journey to bring this dude to justice. Keep in mind he will threaten you with "he will protect himself" and "I'm a licensed firearm card holder" but let's not forget the classic, "I'll do whatever is necessary to protect my family"
Sorry for the long and drawn out response to this thread. Thank you to the OP for making us aware of the situation. I personally will never start a thread in this manner but it takes some guys to call someone out and for that I appreciate ya. I don't know some of the people chiming in about zenk but please reach me if you care to know another friend in the hobby.
Cheers,
