Thread: Calling All Lawyers: Stopping Tailbuyer Abuse in the Community

  1. #61
    all the information on dates and pushing out dates i'm pretty sure should already be somewhere on the tailmaker's FAQ. all this fine print, i'm gonna assume, is to make sure the buyer knows how it all works.

    Lol let me finish law school, and I'd love to help all the wronged Mers get their justice. It's so sad and frustrating to see this wrong go unpunished!

    I just read about the guy who bought a guppy tail from MC for his nine year old son (who raised the money himself) and Jesse basically has stolen the money. It breaks my heart. I want to do something for the kid,

    My thoughts exactly! I'll message his dad and see if that would cheer him up. Poor thing.
    At least, if he could get that money back, he could start saving from where he left off!

    let me know how the dad feels, I would definitely donate so this kid can get his money back and find an actual tailmaker not some douche who steals from children.

    I will! It looks like he made his account for that one post so I'm not sure if he'll see my message, but I hope so!
    I'd be willing to donate, too!!

    Count me in. To deprive the world of a merman is one thing - we're woefully outnumbered to begin with. To crush a little boy's dreams is heartless and unforgivable.

    Jeff replied on behalf his son!!

    He said he is not going to give up on getting his money back from Jesse, but he appreciates our offer of help! I let him know there are several mers willing to donate to help Merman Tyler and I asked him to keep me posted!

    If not, I'm sure that there are plenty of mers who would be happy to sponsor a gofundme or similar project, myself included. Stealing from a child is a whole new level of wrong.

    I know I'm late to the game but I'm one of the people who took a chance on a tailmaker without a contract (and using Paypal gift to send money without the transaction fee) and was originally quoted 6-8 weeks for delivery of a neoprene tail (from final payment) and has waited 8 MONTHS from final payment with a tentative ship date of maybe tomorrow or monday (after a tentative ship date of the end of May, end of August, end of September, Middle of October, and yesterday or today). From someone who I recently found out regularly takes over a year to make a neoprene tail. Shit, I know I'm going to love my tail but if I hadn't jumped in on this and kept saving I'd have the funds to buy a silicone tail by now.

    I think that the takeaway should be to dig a little deeper and get more than three opinions on the tailmaker, talk TO the tailmaker and read the whole agreement.
