What part of "I would like to thank everyone" did you not understand?

So what went wrong?

@x56h34

I hope you're not giving up on this?

Remember what someone said right at the start, it ain't over till the fat postman sings.....and I ain't heard the faintest peep.

This thing's gonna go a lot further yet, but if you or the rest wish to call it quits, I'll go it alone.

@JaXanim:

Oh, I'm not calling it quits. I will pursue this matter as far as possible. I'm just a little disappointed that I probably won't get to see the actual PPC card, but once AGAIN fight for my money back.

I think that's everyone involved...

I'm putting together a letter to send to the Kriminalpolizei Polizeivier in Albstadt. This appears to be the main Police Station in the city.

I'll need to list everyone who's sent money to Binder and what they expected for it.

I've got the PPC cards and cash details from Flowman's earlier post, but I need your actual names and addresses. I will include your Email address as well. If things develop, I guess you may be contacted by the German Police.

Whatever cgutjahr is doing (?), I intend to make contact with Albstadt Police to try and force the issue forward.

Please therefore, will you each *Email* me your name/address. If you don't wish to be included in this action, please say so and I'll not put your name down.

[EDIT: I've already emailed Karoly Toth to tell Binder that I've been advised to get the Police involved.]

Cheers,

JaX

This sounds so much like the DCE thing I am still dealing with and my CSPPC that was sent in close to three years ago now. I contacted the German police and then never heard anything again from them after the first reply I got telling me they were looking into it.

Yet one more reason I am no longer using an Amiga, but now am a Pegasos user. I am so sick of people stealing and taking advantage of Amigans.

@Acill:

The DCE issue was slightly different as everyone did receive something, but the product of course didn't work on arrival, or it eventually died, however the DCE case could very well be much worse than what we are going through now, as both dealers and end-users went through a lot of trouble, vs only the end-users in this case right now.

Also, what is happening now looks like a straight theft, and in case of DCE...well...years and years of waiting and lies. Gosh, it boggles the mind to even think about it.

I got my money back only for the first fraud attempt (the UK case), however I am too late for the PayPal 30 day refund this time.

EDIT: Ah, you edited your comments flowman. :-)

@Flowman and those involved

If you wish your details to go in the letter I'm sending to the Police in Albstadt, please send me your details asap.

See my post at the bottom of Page 17.

The only way I see of getting our money back from Binder is to get the cops in. Don't leave this too late or I'll go ahead with those already listed.

OK, I just need real name/address/phone/email details from Jose, CU_Amiga, Punkpie and Flowman to include you in the list I am sending to the German Police.

Please email or PM me with this info ASAP, if you want me to try and get this Binder case investigated.

If I don't get my card or postal receipt by this weekend, I will send the letter on Monday. I have detailed events from Roland Geiger's advert on AmiBench to Binder's last email about sending registered letters to us all.

I have included our names/addresses/phone/email details as well as the cards we ordered and the price we each paid. It is addressed to the Senior Officer at the main Police Station in Albstadt.

If you don't send me the details, you won't be in the list.

Cheers,

JaX

@JaXanim:

I would be happy to share costs with you in regards to this matter. When we are done with this issue, perhaps you could estimate your total expenses for the time invested, for all the international calls, etc., and I could split those costs with you. Maybe others could chip in as well.

Let me know.

@JaXanim:

Yeah, I'll chip in.  Just work it out and let us know.  You've done a lot of work on our behalfs so it's only right that we re-pay you in some way.

Cheers.

@Acill

I'm sure that you know that Pegasos mainboards are being produced at DCE facilities, don't you?

Of course, they are not in charge of their marketing, thanks God, so, hopefully, at least Genesi will take care if any board has to be repaired and will push DCE for a prompt repairing.

BTW, good luck to you all, I hope you can get your money back.

Saluditos,
