I am sorry to say I have had a very bad experience with a V Pipes 'purchase' just recently.
So, Oxter Shuffler be very careful.
In July 2019 I got in contact with the maker, struck a deal and sent a deposit of 449 Euros to
the bank account he gave me (Same one as on the website) I was told delivery would be in 20m to 25 weeks.
In January I sent an email asking about progress and was told he would be ready to invoice in another week or two.
After a few more weeks I emailed again but the message was rejected. It happened a few days later again. I had been blocked.
As this was Covid 19 and Madrid was getting a hammering I eased back but, I wrote a letter to the address associated
with the bank account. A few days ago the letter came back marked 'Desconocido inconnu' - which a Spanish friend translated as
'unknown and incommunicado'.
Looks like I have been swindled out of 449Euros.
So busker sean you might tell your friend that Costro my not be making at the moment but is happy to bank money
from trusting fools like me before he mentions his lack of production.
I am about to contact the bank to see if they can help get my money back. (Fat chance there, I'd say). I am also going to write to the police in Madrid.
Maybe the international element of this behaviour will raise some legal eyebrows.
