toptenmaterial Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Has anyone been in touch with the old guy? I miss seeing him on these boards; his Secret Santas and Mystery Boxes (not to mention his contributions to the corn thread) sure livened things up. If anyone has any info regarding his health please let us know. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+thanatos Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Been almost 2 years since I've heard from him. Very sad to not see him around anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 He had some serious health issues going on, is he still alive? (not meant to be funny) I know he still had his wife doing the Ebay thing, is his Ebay account still active? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'm interested in his condition as well. We miss him at MGC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I hope he is in good health and also hope he's able to get those 25th Anniversary consoles out to all those that are waiting on them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Haven't seen him in forever. curious too. Anyone have email or know his ebay name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Synergy Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I was just thinking of him the other day and was going to ask the same question. I hope he is healthy and happy, wherever he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Haven't seen him in forever. curious too. Anyone have email or know his ebay name? He didn't leave do to health reasons so much as he ran cause he owes people on this forum thousands of dollars worth of pre-paid goods. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassGuitari Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) I miss seeing him at MGC. I think the last time he came up to the show was three years ago (or was it four?), and he was in pretty tough shape then.

Crazy Climber Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 He didn't leave do to health reasons so much as he ran cause he owes people on this forum thousands of dollars worth of pre-paid goods. Yeah, I didn't want to be the one to say it, as he owes me nothing...but as far as I know he did leave behind a large unpaid debt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iesposta Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I joined here after the 25th Anniversary hardware offer, but if I remember correctly, it was offered to ship in the uncompleted state. At least that's something... I did some business with him. Some boxed carts, the return of AtariVox+ (I purchased 2 before it went to the AtariAge Store). The 7800/2600 PNP Space Invaders Joystick hacked controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorGamer Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I bought a boxed Odyssey 2 from him. But that doesn't mean he didn't screw other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari8bitCarts Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I liked the guy too, but who's to say he isn't still around. I've seen many people just get new id's/accounts and continue in "stealth" mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulBlazer Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 He didn't leave do to health reasons so much as he ran cause he owes people on this forum thousands of dollars worth of pre-paid goods. Kind of low to kick someone when they are in really bad physical state and bad health, Shawn. I also miss seeing him around, he was a great guy and very helpful to me on several things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lendorien Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Guys, I'm only going to say this once. Bad things happen to people beyond their control, and it's not always easy for life to continue as things were before these things happen. To my knowledge, everyone who paid for items they did not receive has been contacted and offered options to try and move forward. I know they are being sincere, and whatever medical problems Ax may have, that is his private business. Unless Ax or his wife comes in here and start talking about it, I would appreciate if people do not continue to pry into their private lives. You can always contact "wolfpackmommy" via PM on AtariAge if you have outstanding business with either of them. Thanks, ..Al From the other thread in august. Not sure if that name is active, but if you have a beef, I'd take Albert's advice. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Yurkie Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The 7800 anniversary stuff got destroyed in a flood that destroyed the man entire home! Is it right not to give people what they pay for no, but how much better reason can one have? I have not heard from him in a long time. God Bless you Ax. I wish you the best! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andromeda Stardust Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The 7800 anniversary stuff got destroyed in a flood that destroyed the man entire home! Is it right not to give people what they pay for no, but how much better reason can one have? I have not heard from him in a long time. God Bless you Ax. I wish you the best! Just curious what the "7800 Anniversary" stuff entailed. Sorry to hear it got destroyed. I bought an AtariVox+ from him in spring of 2013; less than two months later wolfpackmommy showed up with terrible news on his health. I wish him the best if he's still kicking. If not, he will be missed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I was told that he's alive but still not doing well. That's all I think I can share as he wants his private life to remain private. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbeliever Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Ah, sorry to hear this. I've wondered from time to time about Ax as well. Thank you, Tempest, for the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
