Re: My Mitchell Laine aka BOOMER fiasco has ended...I got my Stormtrooper armor!!

Wow... this is EPIC! Don't know that I have ever seen a scammer truly turn a leaf. That is pretty amazing.

Crazy right? I am blown away. Needless to say that a mannequin is being bought. Now i just have to convince my wife that we need a stormtrooper guarding the front door. :love

Though he did the right thing, I don't think we'll be taking any warm showers together any time in the near future. :lol The guy is still a jerk, but in my book he's moved up from thief to jerk.
I suspect that there are other forces at work here. Think about it: high end armor, he lives in Oz (almost impossible to reach) and expensive to ship. Granted, it took him an excess of 6 months, but he DID send it AND paid for shipping.
Maybe the parents?
Police?
I find it hard to believe out of the blue he decided to do the right thing. Whatever the reason, he did it. good for him. :thumbsup
Now if he will take care of the rest of his obligations, all will be right with the world. :)

I just shipped the exact same thing to the states from OZ. Postage EMS with tracking was
Just over $240 aud. Truly amazing that he forked out that cash.
 
Great news!

But please, please keep all information in one place. I have merged the new thread into this one, since we already had two major threads on Mitchell Laine.

Thumbs pressed that this ends well for the others as well.

Just found this thread. It really is awesome to see you guys finally getting your stuff after such a long time! Pretty amazing! Good job, Moviefreak, for being so persistent even though it seemed like a long shot.

This is what I love about this community. Even though there are scammers and just downright nasty people out there, most of us here are just honest prop fans who are willing to go out of our ways to help fellow members. That really is quite special, I think.
 
Moviefreak, you deserve major Kudos for this. Hopefully Mitchell will redeem himself somewhat. He will never be trusted by anyone here but he will no longer be considered an unrepentant thief. I pray that he continues with his redemption, and I thank God ther are people in the world like you sir.
 
Thanks guys.... But this forum has been like a second home and i just wanted to help out the members I look up too. It was my pleasure seeing things work out :)

And this is how you make a name for yourself here. Some people think it's about the Off Topic threads and how "cool" you can be but I can tell you that Moviefreak will always be a "cool kid" member in my book.
 
This is really cool, there usually is never a happy ending. I have to jump through hoops with people on ebay to get my stuff sometimes and if you are ripped off on a forum you are pretty much out of luck unfortunately. This is really great to see.
 
Glad this turned out better than the RPF curmudgeons anticipated. Nice going Moviefreak. Chalk one up for the Good Guys.
