Quite a few? What might they be, indeed? I have a
single CopyNES here for you, and the last few times I tried to reach you, I received no response; merely stony silence. I have precisely zero PMs from you here, zero on NESDev, zero on a dozen other forums, and the last one on NA is from April, 2010 regarding games that you wanted to buy, but never did. I have not had any telephone calls from you as far as I am aware, and I have no idea what number you are dialing.
You may reach me at 908-616-8747, the first number listed on the website. If you are dialing my old 908-398-1802 line,please be aware that it has been discontinued for ages, as I am no longer with Sprint. Goodness only knows whom you have been contacting, and what they must think if you are leaving voice messages for me on their line.
I also recall you promising to do a few things for me, which you never did--not one of them, and every time I tried to ring you and ask about what was happening, you seemingly ignored my telephone calls and my messages. Your CopyNES is still safe and sound,however I decided that if I was going to be ignored, and that if you chose to duck me because you bit off more than you could chew, then it would sit here until you made an effort to reach me.
Everything that you paid me for, you received, and then-some. I RMA'd the parts that UPS mangled under warranty, and I ate the replacement costs because of how long it took to get a claim into them.
I understand your situation; honestly, I do, but please don't try to con me about owing you lots of stuff. I have a very long memory about such things, and I do occasionally owe things to people, sometimes for a long while. Everyone eventually gets everything, and usually more besides, and the only thing I have of yours is a CopyNES, nothing else. I'm also both air and absurdly patient--more so than anyone else you're ever likely to meet.
I waited
over half a year to receive a valuable trade item after I dispatched my end of the bargain, so I'd say that given how long I've waited for items of value, I'm pretty balanced in taking a long while on some things. Some of it is due to my personal problems as well, and some due to problems with employees or business partners and other hair-pulling, stress-inducing situations that--perhaps someday--you may come to understand.
I did say that I would install your CopyNES in a toaster for you, and send you the finished system, but that was in exchange for what you were supposed to do for--
and with--me. As none of that ever happened, and much of it is now superfluous, I will happily mail you the CopyNES and let it go at that, unless you want to actually do any of the projects that we discussed a year-and-a-half ago.
P.S. I just reviewed three of my e-mail boxes. I found messages from you only in one of them (flashback) -@- (atariusa) and the last message there is from 28th July
2010, which contained the photos of the damaged UPS box. If you sent any direct e-mail or PMs to me since then, it would be very helpful to know to where you sent them and when, so that I can look for them in the correct location.
P.P.S. It took me a day to find your telephone number. I rang a few minues ago and you were unavailable. Please rind me back ASAP.
