To be fair, he's not asking for positive reviews. Just reviews in general. So if you've had a legitimate bad experience with his shop, just leave an honest review about that experience and ask for your $20 coupon!

I'd love to see his reaction to those.

Who the heck goes to Yellow Pages for reviews? The guy is unhinged.

Sent an email to NMC over 3 weeks ago asking politely to send what they had, (80% of my order is supposedly in my locker) and cancel the rest with no "restocking fees" for things that were never in stock. Never heard back.

Yeah, that sounds about right. If you do get a response, get a bowl of popcorn and a good drink, prop your feet up and get ready to read the novel that he'll send you, lol.

Just that he is going to ban me for jumping the ‘support queue.’ I think he is overwhelmed and he is on his own and his product isn’t coming in but at the same time I saw some my preorders go from being ‘preorder’ to ‘in stock’ to ‘out of stock’ with no emails or notifications. Didn’t want to take the chance. Thanks to this board for the heads up before the deadline passed that I should attempt to get my money back.

Glad to hear you got out while you could. It doesn't matter if he's overwhelmed though, he's constantly putting up new items for preorder and not fulfilling the previous preorders. I feel like he knows what he's doing. He'll make you wait until past the Paypal date for refunds (by giving you excuses about not being able to control supply and demand) and once the date expires, he can keep your payment and "provide you with store credit" (he tried that crap with me). It's just an overall scam, so I would never give him the benefit of the doubt. Plus he's super rude with all his replies.

He still has two orders with me.

You guys should repost these as reviews on his google page. He said that if you'd do so he'd give you $20 off your next purchase over $100. Wow!

It's still a violation of Google Review policy as it taints the honesty of the review. Not sure how to report it though
