uicdent11 Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Some of you might remember a thread I had back in the late Spring of this year. It is now locked, but you can search iFisch and you will be able to find the thread. I bought a reel for $120 via money order and I never got the reel. Well, I figured since he did not answer my 10+ emails I was scammed. So I am searching through TT last week and I see a familiar name, IFisch, the same name the guy used on this site. I looked at his profile and sure enough it was the same kid from Fla. I sent him a pm asking for him to man up and send the money. To my surprise he responded with a nice message about how he was sorry. I guess he was hospitalized right after our deal and had his work ship the reel. I guess it got sent to the wrong address so he says. He offered to pay me the money back or ship me a NIB $250 reel. 2 day UPS. I decided I would take the reel offer. Well, it got here today and Nick was extremely responsive to all my pms (on TT) while we figured this all out. I guess he isn't a terrible kid after-all, but I will never send a MO again because of this. Between this, getting the $ from USPS (in another post), and getting the afternoon off in clinic; it has been a great day. Now if it were only Spring... Quote

Super User skunked_again Posted December 12, 2009 Super User Posted December 12, 2009 isnt it amazing how human we can be? im glad things worked out for you. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted December 12, 2009 Super User Posted December 12, 2009 It's always nice when you get something resolved... Quote
iFisch Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Jon, again, I apologize. I can provide hospital records if you really want them. Everything I told you can ultimately be tracked, if you believe me or not. We talked for some time when he informed me. I even offered him my phone number so he can speak to me in person and allow me to explain myself. brushhoggin, it is. skunked_again, mistakes happen. Like you said, we're all human. I fixed it as quickly as I could. Jon didn't really want the reel, so I provided the receipt so he can return it and get what he ultimately wants. "I recently purchased a 14 Biocube Hood from iFish's. Great communication and the hood was in perfect condition. Definitely recommend him as a seller." http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=15092765&postcount=1 "I recently purchased a 150w mh light from nick. He cares more about you being happy with what you are buying than making money. Def recommended and I would buy from him again for sure. thanks Nick A++" http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=15632616&postcount=5 Additional feedback can be found here: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1645555&highlight=ifisch Again, a simple mistake. I made an attempt to inform family to get the right product out to the right person in a timely manner, from the hospital. Obviously this didn't happen in this instance. I sincerely apologize to Jon, and everyone else here. Quote
CanalStalkin Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 good man. From all of the facts in this thread I wouldn't have an issue doing business with ya. Uicdent, glad you got your stuff bro! Quote
uicdent11 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Posted December 12, 2009 No problems anymore Nick. You did apologize and state what happened and I do commend you for that. I truly appreciate it. I just wanted to update the board for those that remembered the incident. I understand you post on several forums and I do not want someone to search the forum and not do business with you in the future because of anything I said previously. We are on good terms and I would now recommend you as a buyer/seller. Glad to see you are back posting. Quote
iFisch Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Thank you. That means a lot from you two. I don't wish this upon anyone. And I'll be the first to admit it was my mistake and my fault. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted December 12, 2009 Super User Posted December 12, 2009 Wow! A happy ending... Quote
-HAWK- Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Way to man up. You know how the old saying goes "Better Late (Than Never)" Quote
Super User fishfordollars Posted December 12, 2009 Super User Posted December 12, 2009 Good ending to a bad story. Thanks for Manning up. I too, would do business with you if the opportunity arises. Jack Quote
fish-fighting-illini Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 iFish - first and foremost we are glad that you are out of the hospital. The only thing that seems odd is UIC stil had to track you down despite 10 e-mails. I don't want to know any details nor are they any of my business. Perhaps you literally had just gotten well and hadn't got to them yet. Also if a long ordeal the messages could have been buried. Congrats on stepping up and getting the situation resolved. That is a big step towards becoming a class act. Again priority #1 glad to hear that you are well. Quote
Fishbone Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Now I bet you are glad you didn't sent Vito down there. LOL Quote
Super User Munkin Posted December 14, 2009 Super User Posted December 14, 2009 Wow! A happy ending... That usually costs $40 extra! Allen Quote
