@Nathan, as a potential new customer I was incredibly disappointed by the complete lack of communications (I really wanted an s-Video converter and rom Switcher) - lucky for me that by that time I was unable to pay for anything as you had removed your cart system.

I understand what it's like to be seriously unwell (I've been battling a liver problem this year) but all you had to do was put an announcement up on your website saying that you are unwell and will be unable to respond to email and fulfill orders until you have recovered - an "out of office" reply on your email would have helped too.

as they say, it's all about communications.

regards Derek

Nathan Cadwallen <nacad@amigamaniac.com> has disappeared.
 
I've waited almost 2 years for a working RGB adapter and a whole heap of other stuff, over $100 worth now.
 
I really want my money back....any ideas on how to get it back now!

Bank Reversal - put in a claim that goods not received (assuming you paid with a CC via PayPal you'll get your money back).

If he is so unwell why is he still taking orders on his web site.  

He's not taking orders, he just hasnt updated his site since he got sick except to remove the paypal buttons.

Btw, He may be registered on facebook but he hasnt updated since may 2012!

Why haven't you people just claimed your money back from Paypal?

It's quite simple to do so.

Exactly and if PayPal fob you off your bank will reverse the charges from your CC!

I would not "let it go" because, quite simply, it's not right.

There are extenuating circumstances here, give the guy a break. :whack:

The sad thing is not a lot of people take true depression as a serious illness. Just be glad you haven't experienced it, as you never truly get out of the hole.

From the little I know about Nathan I get the impression that he may be suffering from something similar to my Mother - basically serious depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain and it can take years of trialing different medications to achieve relative normality.

The process itself can be quite grueling and destructive to ones personality until the right medication balance is struck - my mother attempted suicide several times before they got her medication right but even now can become quite paranoid or fixated on irrelevancies for no apparent reason.

Mental Illness is a real curse and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy!
