I got this heads up on the colonial fleet forum & thought I would pass it on just in case . I have had no dealings with him , but seems to have a lot on him not being trustworthy .

Hi,

This PM is going to sound weird, but please bear with me.....I noticed that you recently posted on Vagabond 's/John Wieger's thread about his possible run of cylon helmets. I want to warn you that this guy is a total fraud and a criminal. In...

Kathy Pillsbury is a Crook!

KATHY PILLSBURY IS A CROOK

In January of 2007 I drove from my home in Escondido, CA to Kathy Pillsburys home in Panorama City, CA to be measured for a Classic Battlestar Galactica jacket. I made this trip with my wife and our close friend, Mark, who was also to be fitted for the same style of jacket. We met with Kathy who seemed personable and eager to make our garments. We were measured, shown around her shop/home, and paid for what we ordered. Then were on our way. Before...

Board name: BOBATAFF
eBay handle: 1adtr
TK-ID: TD-0832
Real name: Jason Brian
Address: Melle, Germany

This guy is a recaster of Dreadnaugh Industries' X-wing pilot helmets.
Even after being exposed, he continues to sell his stuff on eBay under the handle "1adtr".

I have got a kit from him (bought in good faith through a third party). The two helmet halves were 1.75 mm (or so) thick, not 3 mm thick plastic as he advertises. The pieces also had warped...

Experience with these two ebayers?Smarttrooper-Chimerasales

feeds@yuku.com (warlockwmd) — Tue, 05 Jun 2007 20:22:44 GMT

Hello everyone, after a lot of research etc.. ive come towards these two interesting Ebay sellers,

Smarttrooper and Chimerasales.

Anyone had any experience with them ?
They look like decent dealers.

My preference will probably be chimera, as he has a custom setup for the assembly.
Smarttrooper seems good too, seeing as he has nice extras in the price like the fx mod etc.

Hi all

He has apologised for the delay and now all is well from my end

just wanted to let all know that I've been having a problem with mike out at realprops out of the UK, he has been giving me the run around on a trade going on two months now, I know that its not smart to do a trade and send your item first but, you would think you can trust a guy like mike, but I guess I was wrong, the trade started off great good email's, then a bunch of lies, then I get a fony tracking number, I can't belive he sent a fony tracking number, then said it was good and that he...

dodgy ebay people

feeds@yuku.com (Don Jarr) — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 19:36:52 GMT

Hi all

List as mentioned in another post. While I have added some names of my own which I know are either recasters or buyers for known recaster. There are also a lot that have been added by other people as the list has circulated round. I will say not all are recasters, I know several are buy and pay for something then claims it gets lost in the post. (This seems to be a growing trend by postal workers.) So I take no responsibility for the names I know nothing about, but I do...

Dealing with Kenneth Caslis.

Id like to share my tale of woe with everyone in the prop community. This is in the spirit of friendship and in the hope that, by openly reporting the incident, it may save someone going through what I had to. If anyone has had a similar experience with Mr. Caslis, Id like to hear from them. Also, please feel free to post this on any board you wish. The more people who see this, the less likely anyone else will be affected the same way I...
