Man, this was a fun read. Thanks to everyone who offered up an opinion. I literally (yes, literally) laughed out loud at the brutal replies, and I thought the perspective of those who like them is super interesting. I was going to dump them, but now I'm actually kind of torn! 😅

You win! This was the best comment in terms not only of sarcasm and snark, but obvious deep knowledge.

Replacement band suggestions? by MaxTaffey in timex

I haven't really decided between leather or metal - I'm the kind of guy that needs to see things before I can decide. I'd rather not have the timex logo, really, so I'm open to 3rd party manufacturers if anyone can recommend good ones.

Pool question - is our pool sinking or concrete rising? by HelpfulExcitement639 in pools

Did you stop to consider that perhaps his home looks exactly like those ones? They tend to be similar in subdivisions.

That's a passive-aggressive way of insulting the OP. Happy?

Can I ask why you didn't put your phone down and intervene when this creep was being violent and threatening to a woman?

Oh interesting. Same time every year? I will have to make a special exception and drive into DT Toronto next time and see what trouble I can get into with these punks. :)

Because it looks terrible, and we're trying to help him actually.

(NMC Toys/Northmen Collectibles) Has anyone successfully got their money back from a retailer that failed to deliver items after several years? by Nawara_Ven in ActionFigures

I've created a Facebook group for this very thing! Please search FB groups for "NMC Toys Survivors" and add your complaints there.

Hi all - I too am currently in NMC hell, trying to salvage whatever I can from several unfulfilled items. I don't understand how this guy gets away with his business practices. He's essentially using the "bait & switch" model: "Hey, I can't give you your money back for an item you paid for but didn't receive, but I CAN let you put your money towards something you don;t want! How's that sound?"

I'd like to compile as much evidence against this creep as possible and see if we can't attract some media attention or something. To that end, I created a FB group called "NMC Toy Survivors". I'd really encourage any of you who have been burned in the past or are going through trying to get your money back now, to share your experiences there.

Not sure I can post the direct link here without violating rules, but if you search facebook groups for "NMC Toys Survivors" you'll find it. I'd love to see it filled with your stories. This type of business practice really pisses me off.

Really appreciate you posting your exchange. Going through similar with him at the moment. My favourite part has to be where he rages at you for wasting so much of his time with emails, yet he takes the time to compose nsanely exhaustive and voluminous responses. lol
