Like I mentioned before: I have been refunded in full. I also got a blueprint from Artifactory for free a while ago. I'll consider this as the rent on the amount he had for over 3 years.
But all the excuses he mentions in the mail to Darth Clayton just doesn't make sense:
And as far as the neuralyzers are concerned: who still believes that they will actually be finished in the future? I don't...
But to conclude: yes, I've been refunded in full, but I'm afraid I'm one of the lucky few, and dozens and dozens of people are still waiting, and might wait forever. I'd advise everyone in the US that is on the list, to take legal action. If you don't, Stephen will get away with this...
But all the excuses he mentions in the mail to Darth Clayton just doesn't make sense:
The money CAME out of the blue! People payed it to him, getting nothing in return. If I don't pay the loan of my house, I can't tell the bank: "just wait a bit longer, I can't make the money appear out of the blue!". If I tell them that, they sell my house, and I'm homeless. Simple as that.I can only refund people as money comes in. I can't really make it appear out of the blue,
Always the same excuse. People here DON'T CARE where the money comes from! For all we know, Stephen took the money to start Artifactory Replicas. Well, take the money out of Artifactory then! Or take the money just from your own personal account! Stephen decided to stop with SD Studios, not his customers! This is a non-argument he should stop using!SD doesn't have much in sales for the last couple of year
That's EXACTLY what he did. Stop communicating. I got refunded only because I started to contact people who were resellers of Artifactory Replicas stuff, and those people started to ask annoying questions to Stephen. I also started to post negative feedback on amazon, where his Artifactory stuff is sold too. Before these actions, Stephen indeed ignored all my e-mails. Not one, not two, not three, but ALL my e-mails.If I was a "thief" I would have spent the last two years blowing everyone off and ignoring every e-mail
Again, Stephen takes an attitude as if all this happened without him being able to do something about it. It's almost as if it happened to him without him knowing. It's strange that he still doesn't realize that HE took the money of dozens of people, thousands of dollars in total, without delivering. All he does is inventing excuses, but all he should do is apologize and put all his effort in findign money to refund everybody.I know that doesn't help you, but everyone wants to be the next guy to get refunded, so how do I decide who gets what???
And as far as the neuralyzers are concerned: who still believes that they will actually be finished in the future? I don't...
