Hi
I'm trying to find out about a repair shop run by Hans George Campbell(aka The DoomMaster) in Oregon. I found his website RetrogeekComputers.com where he proposes to fix Amiga computers. You pay $40 + parts and pay shipping both ways and he supposedly fixs them. So being the trusting sole that I am (I know, that may have been my first mistake), I sent him a broken A2000 motherboard.
UPS tracking put the package in his hands on March 11th. On March 17th I emailed him requesting a update on the progress. He responded quickly and reported that he had removed the cpu socket and soldered the cpu to the board directly. (Not a authorized action, despite the increased reliability he claimed) He also said that he had R & R the hybrid video chip but hadn't checked yet to see if everything checked. He advised that he hoped to ship back to me that Friday, March 21st.
I have not heard from him since despite sending three emails in the last 2 weeks. UPS tracking does not show he has sent the package. I realize that he's probably doing this as a second job or catch as catch can, but surely it doesn't take that much time to fire off a status update.
Anybody else had any dealings with him? :-?
