+5-11under #1626 Posted March 19, 2014 A complicated life does not prevent one from taking five minutes out of the last however many months to post an update. True enough, usually. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+opcode #1627 Posted March 19, 2014 And no, I haven't been lurking these forums, otherwise I would have just posted... As I said, issues in my personal life... but I am even going to waste my time trying to explain. For what it is worth, I sincerely apologize for the lack of communication.

slab0meat #1631 Posted March 19, 2014 Post #1568 sound pretty rude to me That is a valid opinion to have, but to say anyone was called an asshole is incorrect. You can certainly feel he was rude. Much as Yurkie's feelings that Eduardo's silence and long absence (and everything that goes along with it) was rude. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+FujiSkunk #1633 Posted March 19, 2014 To be clear here, Yurkie called no one an "asshole" other than saying that HE, HIMSELF risked looking like one by stating his feelings. No, he just implied a bunch of us are ass-kissers. I'm afraid he's lost any business he might have received from me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you kidding ? You're selling some SGM before sending our SGM's (first run) we paid there a lot of months ago ? Can you explain please ? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slab0meat #1637 Posted March 19, 2014 Alright, let me finish what I have started... sad stories and apologies later... First I need to put first run behind me. For that I still need to: - Sell 8 SGMs on eBay, as part of my 10 SGMs agreement with one of the buyers - Sell the remaining 2 crystal clear SGMs on eBay - Contact remaining SGM buyers from 1st run and ship everything. I will no longer offer the option to hold the SGM because of the name plate Once that is done, I will take care of the 2nd run, but I can already say that cases and connectors have been ordered. Back in a moment, going to list some SGMs on eBay... Eduardo Are you kidding ? You're selling some SGM before sending our SGM's (first run) we paid there a lot of months ago ? Can you explain please ? I think that's the best you're going to get.......... BUT... everything happening today is a positive step. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scalpel #1638 Posted March 19, 2014 I think that's the best you're going to get.......... BUT... everything happening today is a positive step. you're right.... actually, I didn't read the first Opcode's post. Hope everybody will receive the SGM... and enjoy their, ours Colecovision and new games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+opcode #1639 Posted March 19, 2014 Two things: I sent emails for all buyers of the 1st run not once, not twice, but at least 3 times. I gave buyers two options, wait for new name plates or to have the SGM shipped immediately. Those who replied and chose option 2, received their SGMs long ago. If you didn't receive your SGM, that means you either didn't reply and chose to wait for new name plates. Secondly, those SGMs going to eBay are part of the 1st run. Someone bought 10 SGMs under the condition I would list them on eBay. If someone is to complain, it is the 10 SGMs buyer, who was generous enough to pay for 10 and is still waiting for his money back. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chart45 #1640 Posted March 19, 2014 like ed said the one he sell on ebay are the 10 that he make a deal with a customer but at least he is back we wait the last years for news we could wait 2 or 3 days for more good news Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to check about your email(s) but it was a long long time ago ^^ EDIT : I checked my emails and I didn't receive 3 emails from you, neither 2, neither only one... I NEVER received any emails from you (I paid 30th of October...2012, First Run) About my order, as I live in France, I use a Scart version, that explain why I didn't receive my 2 SGM, IMO. Could you conquer ? Thanks a lot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGameCollector #1642 Posted March 19, 2014 Very cool. I was only poking at this to see if it would wake anything up. Much like Tarin in Link's Awakening when he hit the beehive with a stick and got chased around & stung. lol Unfortunately I still don't have a ColecoVision again yet. I've had problems with some Coleco's RF ports on my old units (only displaying black & white on certain TV's?!?!?!?) so I might prefer to get a composite AV modded one with new jacks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pumantor #1643 Posted March 19, 2014 I live in France, I use a Scart version like Scalpel and I didn't want to wait for new nameplate 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jblenkle #1647 Posted March 19, 2014 Just my 2 cents... I received your emails I followed the instructions I opted not to wait for the new name plate I received my SGM quickly Had everyone else done the same there may not have been as much ill-will floating around this forum. Two things: I sent emails for all buyers of the 1st run not once, not twice, but at least 3 times. I gave buyers two options, wait for new name plates or to have the SGM shipped immediately.

Pixelboy #1649 Posted March 19, 2014 About my order, as I live in France, I use a Scart version, that explain why I didn't receive my 2 SGM, IMO. Could you conquer ? Correct. Eduardo specified that he would take care of the SCART issue while handling the second run of SGMs. So you were going to wait even if you didn't want the "improved" nameplate.

+opcode #1650 Posted March 19, 2014 That is right, 2nd run can handle both connectors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
