Spoke with Lee last night on the phone. He is sick as a dog and has been sitting on the shitter with explosive diareha for the last three days, inserting his through-hole components into PCBs for solder when he is in an evironment suitable for soldering. On top of this, after running 24psi and a 75 shot through an SSAutochrome turbo for over a year, he finally incited the compressor housing to explode, sending shrapnel through the firewall and into his legs, leaving him nearly crippled. Well, that's not all entirely true, but he has been sick and his SSAC turbo did explode, but he's just been very busy lately. His cell phone is old, worn out, and gets no signal at his home, where he has no long distance set up on his land line. Speaking of land lines, he is only sporting a 28k dial-up right now. He has also been working at a friend's shop lately to make ends meet, so he has had a lot of little stuff back up on him. Now, I'm not posting this information to show that Lee and I are incahoots or to justify his lack of communication with each of his customers, however I thought I would share that he said to let everyone know that he apologizes for the delays and that he will come through on every order that was made. He told me he will be shipping Terry, Joe and my units this week and that all the rest are pretty much complete in terms of parts, but that he has a couple odds and ends to install or modify for different customers. Terry, Joe and I have been waiting the longest at this point, but Lee will get to everyone as fast as he can without affecting the quality of the product. So often, people invest a large sum of money into a part or idea on a site like this and the person on the other end simply blows it on liquor and cheap whores and is never seen again. This is not going to be the case this time. We are dealing with someone who is legit and doing what he can to deliver on his promises. I am not worried about losing my money. I will get my MSnS. I'm pretty sure you will too. We're all just going to have to wait for them. That is all.

hmm
So HE DOES have internet access. I mean this is pretty much a text driven website so that is an irrelevant fact. The fact that his turbo exploded or that he is working at a shop is 100% irrelevant to our situation and shouldnt even be in this conversation.

I have long distance and dont mind using it. He has MY megasquirt that I shipped to him to repair. He has nothing to build on mine, No parts to order, No cases to manufacture. I sent it to him mid february and dont want it to *poof* dissapear or get shipped to anyone else. PM me his number so I can speak with him in person. I have refrained from posting in this thread till now, but I have grown weary and we've seen this too many times to count.
While you driggs may vouch for him, I do not take that as fact or reassurance, especially with your actions of late regarding other members on this board. All I want is MY megasquirt back. Number?
thanks.

Heres a thought: Why doesnt everyone who ordered up a MEGASQUIRT from MrSlick post up their order date so we can figure out who the priorities should be. Out of the 8 or so people who have ordered I think it should be prioritized by who ordered 1st. Not on hearsay.
