Thats Not even in the dirty league.....

Bibby Agriculture - Newark on Trent....circa 1990, Opus PCIII (Feed Bag Labelling System) Check out http://www.format-tripos.com/index-page2.html (I used to work for them)

The PC was kept in a Plywood Portacabin inside the plant....which during the summer it collected Flies by the 1000's. The Staff (dirty B*) swatted a good few of those 1000's on the screen, case, keyboard..it was caked in blood and dead flies.

One day we had to clean it because no one would go in because it stank of rotten flies + added to decaying animal feed dust from the plant....I must have removed about 100's if not a thousand from inside the case /indide the monitor etc, the stench was horrendous......Hozed it down with a compressed airline to clear all the dust and debris. Best part was that still worked.

I'm not sure I'd call him a ripoff "artist".  Perhaps ripoff enthusiast?

Perhaps a fscking botard  :-(
Actually I think there may be some sort of neurological / psychological misfunction here. He certainly exhibits some interesting symptoms...

@ All

The Amiga site you are wishing for is being worked on at OldSkool UK, it will be called Amibay and has nothing to do with any auction site.

It's being created to fill the gap left by Amibench and it will be for retro sceners who have kit they want to sell without going through Fleabay or pay seller's fees.

Info here:

WTF

By the way, Paradox lives about a mile or so from me, he's sod all to do with Doomy but just as bad by all accounts. I hope the real Paradox crew catch up with him and sort him out for abusing their good name.

Somehow I don't think Doomy, Paradox or any of their alternative names will get onto Amibay.

@ sweetlilmre

Would you like me to call on Robert O'Neill / Paradox / Alien^Tek / whatever he calls himself this week and "represent your interests" in him refunding you?

WTF

I think its very sad that no matter who they are, that they should con people in the way that they do.

What on earth do they get out of it?

Please don`t say money, yes I know that, I mean does it make them feel a better human being for doing it?

I hope one day it comes back on them, as I believe in karma, surely it will.

Easiest way to deal with it, is where was it shipped from? If it's from Beaverton, Oregon, then it's Mr. Campbell AKA, Doomy.

If that's indeed the case, let me know. I live an hour away from there.
