    Public Apology

    I am posting tonight to apologize for what has happened over the course of a few months.

    The Story:

    About a month or so ago I had set-up deals with a few members of two different forums (Spec-Ops and Automags.Org) to buy or trade with them for various items. I personally asked them before hand to ship first so I would have the items before a game, or event whichever the case and promised to ship/send payment within the next day or two. I even asked one of them to ship express for me so it would make it on time.
    As time went by those members still didn't recieve their end of the deals thanks to my own doing. I tried to stall for time untill they recieved their half of the bargain. This went on for weeks and weeks and I even found myself lieing to them about the status of the trade or payment, which isn't like me at all and shouldnt even be done when B/S/T ing online or anywhere, nd everyone knows or should know this. Although when I actually bought the items, I did have the money to pay for them at the time, I just chose not to send it immediately or spent it elsewhere. I don't know why I did this but I did. I may have figured "oh well, its a day late or so, no biggie. I was wrong. I found myself digging a hole that with everyday was harder to climb out of and fill in with the closure to these deals.
    Up untill recently i have managed to set right what i had set wrong in the beginning, atleast for two out of the three patrons that took my business dealings. the third was or is being takem care of by a close friend so it is now out of my hands and in a more capable ones own.

    Apology:

    With the above said, I would like to apologize for all of the delays, lies, and wrongdoings I have done in the past and would ask of your forgiveness in hopes of a better future relationship weather it be on the forums, or in business or whatever the case may be. I never purposely meant for this to happen, my life just took a turn for the worse and it just happened to be you guys that got caught in the middle of it.



    I also hope that this happening doesnt discourage anyone from doing future business with me. I know it may seem odd that I say this but its the truth. I like buying and selling online and I don't want to stop. I just dont want this incident to cripple my reputation for being a great guy to do business with.


    Thank you

                Well, good for you for owning up to it.

                Seriously, it was the right thing to do.

                    Good way to set things straight.

                    Have you considered offering your apology-writing skills to the airsmiths in the paintball community?

                        You did a good job of explaining your situation in your apology.

                          oh, thank you... yep, it was 100% my fault, and what i forgot to mention was the repeated threats of calling the cops on me, which made the situation even worse. but what ever, its almost all over with and im halfway through sorting things out completely. and i cant blame them, i probably would have made some threats if it was me in their shoes.

                            Ah...so now I see the incentive for you to post this "public apology"

                            you seem to have just posted a whole slew of items for sale. damn kids
