: Decal Orders...

Sorry for the decal delays in both processing/shipping and responding to emails. I have even had some people dispute paypal payments which I could not even respond to. Unfortunately there wasn't anything I could do to avoid this. I had eye surgery a couple weeks ago ad didn't anticipate not being able to see anything closer than 10 feet without it being an absolute 100% blurry mess, the Dr said it shouldn't have been as bad as I experienced which is why I never posted anything before today. I only just started being able to use a computer over the weekend and still barely did that. I am almost back to normal and will be getting the orders processed throughout the rest of this week.

Again I apologize for the unforeseen delay in getting these shipped. I am also not setup for anyone else to handle the processing of this stuff. If people want refunds just file through Paypal and it will be granted, not an issue either.

Fair enough, and Godspeed on the recovery.

How about those 6" EOC Pirate decals?

I'm waiting for mine since 7/25 when I ordered them. Not 1 answer on either email or forum private message. Still want them, but getting really disappointed.

BadAnimal
09-04-2011, 11:33 PM
I paid for mine on 7/22. He has not responded to any e-mails, posts (except for this post which he started) or PMs.

If he is unable to do this, I wish he would designate someone can.

I think he posted 10 days ago that he has had vision problems but was much better and fulfilling the orders.

I don't know what to think. :-(

So now it has been 14 days since Larry has even logged in. 16 days since he logged onto the CRVOC site.

Does anyone personally know Larry that can call him and find out what is going on?

Thank you.

Several us will be waiting to find out what's going on.

But I also hope you can relay what's going on with the placed orders.

Thank you again!!

Bay, I did get a PM from Dom.five this morning.

He basically said the Larry has not returned his calls. And that he has contacted one of the other administrators for help with this matter. And that he'll keep me posted.

Nobody knows for sure what's up with Larry yet. :-(

If you paid via Paypal you can go to the Resolution Center under My Account tab and dispute a transaction based on the "Didn't receive your item" option.

BadAnimal
09-15-2011, 10:51 AM
Bay, you can contact PayPal but I think the deadline for doing that was at 45 days, I could be wrong.

This is ridiculous. Certainly someone should be able to tell us what is going on.

I am assume Larry is incapacitated and cannot do anything.

But someone needs to verify that and let the rest of us know.

And if that is the case, someone needs to take over his duties.

Someone please help us!!

I ordered my sticker-plate cover a while back, and while I was getting concerned, I don't mind the wait as long as this fellow is OK, it seemed he was having some major issues. I will continue to wait patiently for some kind of word.

SebaMD

I hope he's ok, but I will suggest that until we know he:

is ok
can fulfill all the pending orders

make that part of the store unavailable. Just a suggestion that will both stop people from ordering without knowing there is an issue and let Larry catch up with the orders

BayAreaE
09-19-2011, 09:29 AM
I agree with you Seba...Make the EOC store unavailable for now since nobody can get their orders right now and we are all waiting on some sort of resolution.

BadAnimal
09-19-2011, 09:40 AM
We all hope the best for Larry, I'm sure nobody wishes him ill will.

Don't forget Larry's last post 3 1/2 weeks ago was that he was much better and that he'd fulfill all the orders by the end of that week.

We still deserve to know what is going on. Many of us placed orders over two months ago.

They need to close the store down until orders can be fulfilled.

Nothing new to report on my part.

As far as someone else taking over the store. Larry owns and operates the Club Stores. Logistically it would be almost impossible for someone else to take over at this point in time.

Everyday I still check my mail thinking maybe it has been sent with no heads up on the forums. Silly me.

Thanks Animal for checking in, you made me laugh because I am doing the same thing by checking my mail everyday. Hopefully Larry is ok, dont want to sound like a meanie and all I care about is my sticker, but I cant help but think its kinda crazy that the store is still open with people buying stuff without knowing whats going on unless they check this forum.

psschmied
09-29-2011, 11:09 AM
There's only one person who can give an update, and he hasn't responded since 8/26. (There are open orders going back to July.)

It would be nice to think that Larry is alive and will eventually return to conduct business. It would also be nice to think that the web admin will take the link to the decal/plates page off line, and "someone" would automatically process refunds for these "black hole" orders.

The order page says "Decal and license plate orders are filled 1-2x per week. All payments are made securely using PayPal and are sent to Larry Joffe (aka "spdrcr5" on the forum), who will send your order to you."

Since no one has heard back from Larry/spdrcr5/ljoffee@gmail.com in more than 30 days, you should assume that he's no longer in business.

Contact PayPal and request a refund. PayPal will attempt to contact Larry. If he can't be reached, PayPal refund your money. PayPal will also will suspend his account, so no one else can place a black hole order and be left in suspense.

If Larry does return, reorder your decals or frames at that time.

He's definitely alive.

Paypal claims must be filed within 45 days or you are out of luck. If you funded your paypal payment with a credit card, you may have 60 days to dispute the charge with your credit card company.

Mis, the first post in this thread is from Larry, the guy who runs the store -

Sorry for the decal delays in both processing/shipping and responding to emails. I have even had some people dispute paypal payments which I could not even respond to. Unfortunately there wasn't anything I could do to avoid this. I had eye surgery a couple weeks ago ad didn't anticipate not being able to see anything closer than 10 feet without it being an absolute 100% blurry mess, the Dr said it shouldn't have been as bad as I experienced which is why I never posted anything before today. I only just started being able to use a computer over the weekend and still barely did that. I am almost back to normal and will be getting the orders processed throughout the rest of this week.

Again I apologize for the unforeseen delay in getting these shipped. I am also not setup for anyone else to handle the processing of this stuff. If people want refunds just file through Paypal and it will be granted, not an issue either.

And that was on Aug. 24th, barely a month after I ordered my decal. He said he'd get the orders out.

I keep bumping this topic because 1) I am not happy and 2) I know how terrible my memory is and I don't expect the people that have no orders waiting to remember to contact Larry.

Hey everyone, I am sorry for any inconvenience and I am looking into this for you guys. There is not much I can do, Larry unfortunately went through eye surgery a few weeks ago and I'm sure he has a lot on his plate while trying to have a good recovery. Larry is amazing at what he does and I wish him a speedy and great recovery. I'll keep you guys updated for sure :)

Okay everyone, so in order to get this issue resolved and moving forward, I'm going to create a thread for the members who are already paid and waiting for their sticker, and start a fresh list so that these stickers can be sent out. I'm also going to have to double check with Larry to make sure that the members on the list have actually already paid.

I'm also going to close down the "EOC decals" part of the Owner's Club Store until further notice.

I just want to thank everyone so much for their understanding and patience on this matter. :)

BadAnimal
10-05-2011, 10:22 AM
Cayne, thank you very much for taking on this task!!

There are other folks that ordered not just EOC decals but CRVOC decals and maybe others.

I personally ordered a CRVOC decal. I came to the EOC site because I saw Larry was much more active here. I assume you'll take care of the CRVOC decals as well?

I could forward you my e-mail (from PayPal) of my order to Larry for my decal if that would help.

Are you going to close the other sites decal orders as well?

And are you going to post on the other sites about this situation?

Realistically, when should we expect delivery of the decals?

Thank you again!!!

So just curious if there are stickers currently in existence that can be sent out to fufill these old orders, or if someone (but just not Larry?) will be making some specifically for this purpose? I am really bummed - I looked for months for my E and finally got her Monday and have been reading all over this board and learning in the meantime and REALLY wanted to get an EOC sticker to adorn her with, first priority! If someone is going to be MAKING them for this purpose, is it possibly possible to piggyback on that and ORDER one quickly for after the waiting orders are fulfilled? I am saving a spot for it, and hoping for the best! :)

Hello all -
Anyone know what is going on with the EOC store? I ordered an EOC license plate frame on the 21st of December and still have not received it, or any kind of processing/shipping notification.

Should I start a dispute with paypal, or will I receive the item eventually?

t=71114[/url][/B][/COLOR]

I wouldnt be so hasty to start a dispute.

I feel the eoc store is a very small home run business. holidays and things come up. its doubtful that they are trying to scam

but if it comes down to it file a dispute and either you get your money back or the items.

but contact should always be the first action.

Hi everyone, if you already ordered and paid for an EOC decal and waiting on it to arrive, please post here in this thread your paypal email address or you can PM (private message) me. I will then double check with Larry for the payment. I just need a list so that I can see the numbers and make sure you guys receive it. :act035:

I did... After reading this thread. :(

My understanding was that the Decal Order option was removed at the time that was posted. I haven't been able to see the link for decals and assumed that others couldn't either.

Yeah, I saw it and forwarded it to my wife so she could use her PayPal acct. We could both see it. I wonder if it's full speed ahead again?

I can't see the link on two different pc's or my phone.

As far as I know they are still on hold.
