What to do when ripped off

Hi Guys,

I paid a well known guy on this site over a year ago to put together a kit and paint is.

All I have gotten is one excuse after another.

What would you do?

Curious who it is? If you dont want to post his name please PM me as I went through same crap and just received my piece back after about a year, still broke and the repaint is utterly a joke. My 10 year old could have done better...

I'd also be curious to know via PM. There are a number of talented and reliable customizers on the boards, but also a few bad apples. I don't like calling people out publicly because sometimes folks get in over their heads, have financial or personal problems, or other issues. In the past couple of years I've had three instances of people taking money and not delivering work. As a result I've stopped sending out for customs. There are still some folks I trust, but for others it's not worth the hassle.
