So...
Andy Faulkner. What a man. Or a scammer.
Here's what happened:
I post a thread wishing to trade a second-hand FB3 in fairly good condition bundled with BEYOND Ultimate for a QM2000 Basic/Pro.
Mr. Faulkner decides to reply to it.
We speak on skype about his hatred for Bill Benner and the trade.
I send my FB3 by UPS.
He sends his QM.
I receive my QM, and it asks me for a license file. Andy, unable to provide, leads me to call Pangolin who say "LD2000 doesn't require a license file..."
After numerous attempts at resolving, I send it to Francesco (for the record Francesco/Collimated is an amazing guy. 100% recommended.) who says the clock chip is fucked and fixes it.
Sends it back to me and cost me 125 euro.
I pass this onto a debt collector who is awaiting Andy's reply.
Didn't work. Well it did but for 3 minutes before it died.
Sent it back to Francesco who delivers the verdict it's at it's end of life and will be $800 for a replacement board. (He will be giving me a refund for this! Don't worry about Francesco.)
So I message him today to inform him of this.
"You really are a funny boy; By the way; as I found you to be a bit strange in the beginning; I recorded everything you wrote; even some video footage. So take it to court ( I wish you the best of luck ), I will be happy to send my lawyer to UK for a holiday which you will end up paying for, it will cost you at least 500 euros per day plus flights and hotel; she is wanting to visiting England for a while."
Some background information on us:
I'm a 13 year old student who works ethically and earns my money by web development. Lasers is a hobby.
Andy is a 40+ year old man who was kicked off as a pangolin dealer, is aware of my age, and probably doesn't have the best track record on here.
Conclusion: I would highly avoid dealing with this member.
