Re: [DTXpress] Re: More on the MidiKITI delimma...and Resurrection Drums

2003-02-08 by jadeiebooshkie

Thanks, buddy!  You can bet that is why I posted
this..I am sure other drummers will pass the word.  I
have an uncle who lives in Miami, I just sent him an
email to see if he could check this guy out for
me..perhaps even visit the store, or check to see if
there are any consumer complaints about this place. 
They advertise on the web, and folks should steer
clear of slime like this.  Even if you buy something
from ebay...ya get some kind of notice the item was
sent out....even the store clerk who took my last
phone call said it was shipped, but he knew I was
pissed, so he gave the phone to Jeff Lee.
I hope you can recover your money from that scum bag
that took you and your family for a ride.  Seems
pathetic that crooks like these guys are protected
from honest, hard working folks like us.  I know a guy
who made life miserable for a car dealer who sold him
a piece of crap...man, he had signs posted on every
tree and telephone pole on the entire block of the
dealer's location, and get this...he even had a huge
lemon mounted on top of the piece of crap...and he
would park it right in front of the dealer's
business...and advertise about what a screwin' he got
from the dealer. There was chaos on that block for a
long time, and eventually that
guembarrassmentembarassment to the dealer, and he got
a new car.  Unfortunately, I don't live in Fla....I
just pray that this item will come....Thanks for the
support!...Jade
