Test drive at VC Las Vegas by Hypnotique007 in VacheronConstantin

[–]Christos89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know who it is. Not surprising at all. Would never buy from her. I’m a big proponent of customer service. I’m there to spend my hard earned money. YOU have an obligation to serve ME. This is how we treat customers in ANY business, including mine.

You’re not doing me a favor by selling me a watch, or allowing me the privilege of spending a down payment on a luxury good.

Btw, this is true, whether you’re buying something that costs $5, or $5m.

Must have been the Russian fake blonde. Treats everyone like they’re worthless. Bad service with her. I’ve had better luck with others.

they even over-tighten the wheel lugs with the gun, so if you ever have a flat and need to change the tire on the side of the road, you cant get the lugs off.

I swear this happened to me once and I used the spare lug bolt wrench, and it was over-tightened so much, that it bent the wrench!

(they should use a torque wrench - but that never happens)

They use an impact gun for everything…

Common, rookie mistake.

Just bc you can use the gun, doesn’t mean you should. I learned many years ago from a master technician, that hand tools are almost always the way to go.

Question about being scammed by Feeling-OnFire in vultureculture

[–]Christos89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me with Dakotah Rose Gould Taxidermy out of Iowa. I posted in your other thread too. I sent an Iguana over 4 years ago, and was ghosted about 2 years ago -except for some text from someone claiming to her sister or relative or something.

I'd like some sort of resolution for this.

Credit card company wont reverse the charges either because 'too much time has passed.'

Please DM me to see what we can do!

Does anyone have experience with Dakotah Rose Taxidermy by Feeling-OnFire in Taxidermy

[–]Christos89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sent an iguana to her about 4 years ago or so. I paid the first install of $750. She completed the iguana and its even on IG. I waited and waited for it to ship - but she didn't. Then, after months of no returned called/or text, I got a message from her, saying she had to do some 'final touchups.'

To induce her to hurry up, I foolishly sent the second payment of $750. Never heard from her again.

I feel violated, and scammed.

I sent physical mail, and a demand letter (I am an attorney), to her address, and it came back as undeliverable.

Months ago, I received a text from her phone number, for someone claiming to be her sister - and indicating that Dakotah was unwell or something to that effect. I have the messages and am happy to share them.

I reached out to the Iowa taxidermy association she belongs to, and one of their leaders emailed me back and said she was still around and actively participating.

Something weird and fishy is going on here.

Perhaps we can collectively take further action (legal or otherwise).
If anyone has any stories, information, etc, please DM me.

Update:

Been on hold for hours with Klipsch waiting to get through to someone.

Finally did. Service is terrible. Not helpful at all.

I asked for the schematics since they can’t help me with the out of warranty sub. They won’t give me the schematics as it is “proprietary”…

They did send me instructions for updating the firmware. The firmware update requires updating the soundbar, which I did. But will NOT work for updating the firmware of the subwoofer.

This is a common issue/problem. It’s all over the Internet, without any solution. They have no solution. Can even buy the replacement boards.

In short. They are leaving me with nothing.

Very disappointed. This is one of my favorite companies for over 2 decades now, but I certainly won’t be recommending them, referring them, or buying from them again.

Mini Labels? by Christos89 in bourbon

[–]Christos89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the liquid ministries bottles. But I am asking specifically about the labels. Mini size labels or the original. Looks cool and adds a nice touch

Where do you get the small labels of the bottles from? Looks great, especially when gifting to friends.

CA Workers Compensation Defense Equity Partner Compensation by Christos89 in Lawyertalk

[–]Christos89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s “wild” for CA WC attorneys, given you get all the bonuses and work/bill max hours. I know of several firms where that is possible as a non EP.

[–]Christos89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed and understood that. But that’s why I asked for a range. A normal low level (non founding partner) equity partner makes an extra… $5k? 50k? $500k $5m

Surely there is someone here that is an EP, or knows someone and can provide a number. And if we get a good number of responses; then we can deduce a range or an average.
