i hope paypal refunds your money...
i mean that's the reason why we use paypal in the first place to protect the buyer right?

this is just total B.S. man...
i was happy you were getting his suit, because i was pretty psyched about seeing it in person...but man...this is just too much crap.. =(

and u know what?
u did everything you can to handle this professionally...
u sent numerous emails, they go unanswered for weeks and weeks,
hell yeah i'd be mad as all hell, especially if he had my money.

btw...did you send him the full amount?

 

[peterparker30]

hold on..you spent $2400 on just webbing or on ollie's suit?
and if you spent in on his suit, did you receive it?

That was $2400 for the whole suit, and I recieved the body suit with no undershell or mask. The fit is good but the webs litterly fall off!

 

[Gundam]

he got all of my money

the webs fall off?
wholly crap...
i guess they weren't properly glued.
Even if you could order a set of new webbing,
it's kinda difficult to get the correct sized webbing because they all are a bit different in length and size.
for example;
Ollie makes the smallest webbing, and then brad and nayef makes the biggest. ones..
this is a freaking nightmare..

i take it paypal probably still has in bank and credit information to back charge him... t:

I've had 2 disputes in which I was left without receiving the items. Both times of course Paypal ruled in my favor. Both times, Paypal told me that the sellers accounts were empty and there was nothing they could do.

It would be in Ollies best intrest to come threw on what he owes... If i have to pull in favors with friends that can do something about it. the money he ripped off wont cover legal fee's.

I truly hope you get every dime back. The thing I would be concerned with is the number of people he owes money to. The people on the board could just be the tip of the iceburg.

If this will not work, we have his adress and his phone number.
I've send him a mail and Jens is trying to reach him by phone.

If all our attempts fail... you know.. only 2 hours for me to drive

It's really cool that you guys do this kind of thing for each other, I'm really new to the world of costuming and it's nice to see people helping each other like that!!

 

[young-nyc]

i have to agree,
that's really cool u're looking out for each other.
let's see what ollie has to say.

 

[Germanspider]

Till now, no reaction to calls or mails... nothing.

Are there any others who are waiting for stuff from oli?

 

[Gundam]

So far that i know of Roken, Peter30, and myself.

 

[Gundam]

I was just sent this e-mail by someone that was up for an Ollie suit till he saw my post on the LOH an hour or so ago...
So ollie is around he is just hiding from anyone not willing to buy a suit.

Well i know my suit is done i will just never see it...

Hi,


I usually take a down payment of $900 to cover the material costs and the rest when the suit is ready to ship. Payment can go through paypal or any other service that is reliabe. Also, making a costume is a lot of work and I also have a daytime job, so it can take up to 3 months to finish a suit depending on the free time I have. Attached are some more pics.


Best wishes
Ollie

 

[GRIMLEYFIENDISH]

looks to me like ollie is a lying, stealing, lower than a rattlesnakes ass piece of crap. hope you guys get your hard earned cash back and that someone gives ollie a smack in the mouth for his actions

 

[peterparker30]

I can't freakin believe that!!! I can see why in his #@!$%bag way he would keep the other costumes to show, but he sent me a bodysuit with no mask, I can't see why he would just keep a mask unless hes planning on selling it without the full costume or he is just plain being a #@!hole and not shipping it out of spite. I can't imagine how mad you must be Gundam!!

 

[matthooper]

It's one thing if a suit maker gets in over his head and simply is overwhelmed and can't ship out.

It's another thing if they continue to lie and steal after they have been exposed as frauds. He has gone from a great suit maker, to a guy who doesn't return e-mails, to a thief!

I am very displeased... But he will Get his if he decided to continue on the path he is on. I also have some major personal problems that have taken up a lot of my energy..

Sorry to hear about your personal stuff, but hey, at least you don't take peoples money and lie to them repeatedly! If you handle life's ups and downs like you make costumes I'm sure you'll be ok .

LOL to tell the truth this is another reason i feel like leaving the prop world there are so few good people to deal with.

I wish Ollie would just be a man of honor and send us a damn refund or what he owes us.

I wish urethane webbed masks would fall from the sky but I don't think thats gonna happen. If Ollie was a man of honor this garbage would never have happened. ARE YOU READING THIS OLLIE, I WOULD LOVE TO TELL YOU THIS FACE TO FACE.

I got this e-mail this morning!!! I have sent e-mails to thank everyone that offered a helping hand!!:heart:

Hi Chazz,

OK it was very dumb of me to act that way. I had serious problems
with the suit: Before I went into my vacation I was nearly finished
as I told you and I've put the suit on a mannequin for the time I was
away. When I came back many of the webs around the upper body, the
mask and feet were broken. I can only guess, but it could have been
that some humidity was left in the mold when I casted your webs.
That's what my supplier told me. Because of that the color also
didn't stick that well. I don't know why I didn't tell you that. I
just thought I could fix it somehow, but it took a long time and the
results were not what I expect from my suits. When I first said the
suit will be shipped I was finished, just to see new broken webs on
the next morning that appeared over night. That depressed me and I
didn't know what to tell you, well it should have better been the
truth instead of nothing. Anyway, I fixed it again and I brought it
to the FedEx center to frankfurt today, tracking is the same as 2
weeks ago: . But the suit has flaws which I will not
accept and you won't also. Please see this suit as a temporary
solution, one that you can work with and make some appearances, until
I'm sending you a complete new suit that we both are satisfied with.
I will try to start with it as soon as I can. If you don't want to
agree to that we will find a different solution.

Best wishes
Ollie

We are now talking and everything looks like it will pan out great!!

Hey Ollie,

I Would have understood if you had just told me before, I myself do props and suits for others every now and then so i know how it is to have problems with your work. I really wish you told me before hand instead of ironing me.

e could have work it out with no problem, I am sorry for my last rash of e-mails. The lack of communication witch is all we have can only lead to me thinking bad things if you couldn't have e-mailed me, You could have called i have tried to reach you by phone many times. So i will take your word and believe you when you say

"Please see this suit as a temporary
solution, one that you can work with and make some appearances, until
I'm sending you a complete new suit that we both are satisfied with"

If this is true that you will do this then i will gladly accept your offer. Please just be honest with me.. or people in general it's the best policy. I'm glad you decided to e-mail me i thought i would never hear from you again. Please keep me posted.

Chazz

Hi Chazz,

you can take my word and I totally understand your anger of the last weeks. I will start from the beginning now with ordering new prints (also for Josh).


Best wishes
Ollie

That is great news Josh will be pleased Also!! what will you do for Roken?, he has been really humble about the whole thing.

Roken will get his money back as he wishes, I'll send him a mail tomorrow, I hope he will give me another week to get my finances back up. His suit might also share the same problem, beside the small hole in the fabric where I was waiting for a replacement part from my printer.

Best wishes
Ollie

That's great new!! I know Roken will give you the time you need he is super nice! I'm super happy everything is out in the open and being worked out!
thank you

Chazz
