I can imagine how bad you feel.Yeah it's very unfortunate. I'm super devastated....I was so looking forward to them. It hurt financially too as you can imagine. I even sent him my soles I bought from @cavx, along with paid postage to and from.
Ughh...I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt but lately I have had 3 separate instances within the last month or two where I pay for a prop and then that person falls of the face of the planet. I hope he comes back...I put in a paypal dispute hopefully that will get his attention. Will also try his youtube
To paraphrase his email he basically said he was busy with work and other orders. Also he had a break in of some sort but didnt go into detail. He also said he'll have my shoes out "soon". Now I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt but I don't want to get screwed. And according to PayPal if I cancel the dispute I can't open another one in the future and therefore would have no recourse if another issue arrised. So I'm not sure what to do. He's asking me to cancel it cause it's holding up some funds of his I don't want to be a dick but I also don't want to get screwed. All I want is my modded v2s
Yeah this guy got us good man. I sent him mine in late April. His story was that two other members' items got stolen along with mine.
Well if your items got stolen, he should pay you the cost of your shoes.
Did you pay him upfront for modifying?
I can understand two months to do the shoe if you are really busy but the lack of communication is really unnacceptable.
After I modified my first few pairs, I was able to do it in less than a few days with a maximum of a week to week and a half to do a fully modified pair sparing some hours in the evening and weekend.
Let's hope you can get your money back if they are saying the shoes were stolen. A bit hard to believe in my opinion. They should at least reply to you.
Here is my custom replica Hyperdunks I made a few years back...

You guys should carry on with PayPal disputes and other legal actions. This is unacceptable. Not cool.
