Wow just wow, and if this is true (don't mean to sound rude) that's just beyond a fubar move on his part. Wonder if people that bought the blemishes had any problems with them. So why wait sooooo long to let us know that this was going on, while the whole time your rep and products were taking a big time hit. Sorry if I am poking my nose where I should not be.

Well unless there was a third party involved, its just going to be a "he said she said" pissing match between the 2 of you, no need to point the finger just get it done.
I work in a tool and die shop, I know if we get a contract we only get a down payment. When the work is done and the buy-off is complete, they pay the rest, then we ship it.
From what im getting from this the down payment was paid, the work isn't complete, so why would someone pay for something that isn't there. I don't get it XMT if tooling and materials is holding you up thats on your end. If goose paid all but $200 then there is no excuse for why the parts aren't finished.
Well im not going to pour anything more in the pot on this. If the parts are going to be finished keep us updated. Its not that hard to jump on here and post something at least once a week. Heck just say sorry guys nothing new to report, would be nice to know that your still around.
Well i see XMT went through and deleted his posts, or a mod did to keep this from becoming a flame fest.Comment

Intresting
We would guess that is why he all of a sudden posted then proceeded to delete all his posts.Originally posted by MongooseHere it is: im tired of trying to not throw XMT under the bus but after his bull statement i cant resist.
He has been issued a C & D letter and is not allowed to make or sell any of our unlicensed parts. he was told to destroy all of our files and if you purchased any of our parts from him...they are blems as far as we know!
I will contact a new machinist right away......sorry for all the delays.

XT CUSTOMS will not be machining any more parts for Venomous designs. They cant pay their bill for the V1 grips i shipped them AUG of 2011....almost a year.
NO MONEY NO PARTS..........ITS THAT SIMPLE!!!!!!!!!
Ya we saw that also, whats up with THAT.Originally posted by reckid1986

i would say this is a bad situation for both people.
bad mouthing a machinist for the mag community not good, he makes great stuff that is great looking and has great funtionality. he has always done great work for AO community.
the fact that mongoose still owes people like my self for one, (and that is the only person i can speak for) and the parts owed to me were stuff i was told was in stock and have been paid for in full, and were parts that were not needed to be made.
so the issue with xmt is not mongoose's only concern.
like i have said before i consider the parts owed to me a lost cause.but would still like to have what i paid for, or the value of the parts refunded.
dont get me wrong the ideas mongoose had were great, but he should have looked into having the money for his producer before he got in over his head. if you ran out of money to pay people just say so, dont start pointin the stink finger at the only person who has been supplying your ideas to the community in the form of parts, that you should be pay for in full before items were even considered to be made. that is is how it is whith any good machine shop.
my thoughts,

Just incase some didn't notice Mongoose came on and removed his latest posts from this thread today. He is also still avoiding contacting me about the money/parts he owes me. I'm going to take a wild swing and say no one else got a response on their refund either.Comment

Actually..Originally posted by knownothingmagsrecap,
he was defending his side,
said he would pay xmt the 200$,
said he would not pay for tooling or keeping machines running.
XMT posted up that he was owed money for the machining and wasnt going to do anymore more until he got paid.
VD came back at him and said that it was all BS and laid the blame on XMT
XMT came back, then took down his posts
People started asking VD about refunds etc.
VD pulled his posts and failed to contact anyone.

So including this thread, the AO community is owed thousands? Good thing it's just 50 bucks for me. If I was owed a expensive body or such I would have this guy in hot water with the authorities.
Considering how broke I am right now it really
me off. I am selling everything I have to get caught up. So screw this guy and xmt. A pissing match over this much money? If principle was any concern one of them would get things done for the AO community.
Fire power my friends.Comment
