I bought and paid for an Ultimate ship. I did get all my money back from my credit card co. I own this sagging, sad ship. I got it handed to me in person at a Seatle Creation con, by Chris Gilman. My ship still lights, and has sound, along w/ Shatner's sig.
I do have an old email w/ many shots (jpgs) of my ship brand new, if anyone wants me to forward it to them.
I still wow at the l.e.d. chase effect nacelle feature, and lighting. Love the sound too.
With all it's flaws, I still enjoy it lit at night. I also have the orig. website photos/text descriptions printed out and archived in a binder.
Yes, and Gilman's company also took a hit from UNOBTAIN.'s bankruptsy, as he was a co-singer for the loan and he got stuck w/ using his companies profits to fend off customers trying to recoup from Cigel, who fled.
I have an audio copy of the actual court hearing of debt discharge and 1 former customer who brought his failing ship with him and spoke up calling Rick on his obvious deceit, disception and damning gaul to continue to accept credit card payments way past his ability to ship product, or make good on bad ships sent out..and his never realized regroup to ship replacements made w/ a better resin.
