I've been wondering what has been going on with Brandon lately too. I haven't heard from him at all, and in the past when I dealt with him he was very good with communications and accurate with lead times. However, I think what a lot of users here are saying is accurate though. There has been zero communication from him for quite some time, and he still has possession of a lot of users gear, and if he doesn't have possession of their gear, he has possession of their money for which no services or items were ever exchanged. Something isn't right.

Have faith in peterek. Last time I talked to him a while back he was dealing with some heavy life stuff. Life was chaos for him. I'm not trying to make excuses for him but I could sense he was going crazy with life.

As well as your money and gears

You sure got that right, I was lucky enough to get my money back from PayPal but did loose my gear,might have to take a trip to Holland

His life is apparently not so in shambles that he can't still fairly actively post the car projects he's working on/selling. It seems increasingly clear he has scammed/stolen thousands of dollars worth of people's gear here. This is a criminal case if you ask me.

Well I hate to say it but as one of his supporters up until now, Things have gone south for me also.
18 weeks now since I paid him, 3 months of no contact even though I see him online almost every day ( Facebook )
He knew I needed a quick turnaround as it was to go with another review I was putting together, And never came through.
I sent him a message on the 23rd/24th of Oct saying all of this etc, And to this day he hasn't replied even though the message shows as seen.
I just checked the paypal claim and "the seller hasn't responded" since the 24th of this month. NOTE - He hasn't responded at all.
All he needed to do was pm me just quickly to say he hadn't forgotten me and give it 'X' number of weeks, But nothing.

I won't share any screenshots etc due to privacy,
but yeh, Sorry to have to say it but I've lost faith.

He seem to ignore me too.

Is there a way i could do something if it is past 3 months after payment?

Could paypal open dispute at this point?

It really sucks that it comes to this...

Well I opened a case at nearly 18 weeks so I would think you should be fine. It's a real shame this is happening as I believe he's a genuinely good chap.
But that was half of my Disability money which really could have gone elsewhere.

I don’t know what took you guys so long to get your money back from PayPal, when open a case and seller not response you can escalate it and then get your money back in 2 weeks or less

Yeah, that really stinks, man. Something isn't right. My experience with him has always been positive, so this is just really weird. Whether it's funny business or not, a simple post here or re-opening the Etsy shop and posting a message there would probably put a lot of people at ease. Sorry to all the people who lost their gear.

As someone who was interested in doing business with the guy, reading this thread is painful. Has no one considered taking legal action? A class action lawsuit or something. (I'm not well versed in law though)

 

[damex]

Can’t we just try to contact him through social media first?

I have, Numerous times with no reply, even though it comes up as message seen.
