**Jim S** · 10-02-2009, 03:47 PM

I am most disturbed that MtMadeMistress is named Eric.

**iceman** · 10-05-2009, 11:07 AM

Still waiting for a an order of six dogtags placed and paid for by Paypal on August 14. Could I have an update? I also emailed you.

Thanks

**GapersGoHome** · 10-05-2009, 03:12 PM

Just wondering how much has been donated to Sherry and Ayla... have those figures?

Seems like quite a bit!!! Thanks!

I agree. I too sent money through paypal for two of these a few weeks ago.
What's up with progress, I thought these were already made?

**iceman** · 10-29-2009, 09:16 PM

weeks? I ordered and paid for 6 dog tgs to pay off a bet to Phineas on August 18. A hundred and twenty-one bucks. No dog tags.

I did get an email that "the machine broke" but now it was working, or a new one was bought or whatever. That was like ten days ago. No tags yet.

I'd think twice before sending money at this point.

If you let your mind wonder all kinds of reasons why come up?

But she seemed genuine, I suspect she is having bigger issues in life than not meeting these commitments.

Single? New Kid? Life issues?

OR?
I just scanned back through her posts she posted here before Shane passed away. So this thread and her offer to do this work does not appear to be the purpose behind joining TGR.

She should let the community know whats up.

**MTMadeMistress** · 10-30-2009, 12:22 AM

Sorry guys I havent been getting your posts....I will apoligize if you have been waiting...some of you know about my machine quitting on me, me waiting weeks for the new one and then it not working with my computer....I also have gotten more orders from the Powder article than I imagined I would with made my catching up even harder...PLEASE DONT FRET you WILL GET YOUR order, please just be a little more patient! I am doing the best I can and promise to fill all my orders!!!! If it makes anyone feel better I ordered my Die Living shirts in July and still havent gotten them...I understand how things need to be made!

**MTMadeMistress** · 10-30-2009, 12:55 AM

Just so you guys know I am doing this without ANY PROFIT...each order takes at least an hour to fill IF they print right the first time...Doing this fundraiser has depleted my entire inventory of tags and lighters that I use as a way to make money to take care of my kids...I have tried to be on top of keeping people updated...I am generous and pay the shipping on most of the orders because PayPal takes a nice lil fee each payment and most international buyers I cover their cost....I was just told to have THICKER SKIN to be on this site and to not be offended that some people think I am a fraud...well if you think I am a fraud than I am the hardest working, most sincere and generous fraud on the planet...oh yea and one that makes no money from my fraudulence! so thanks and if you want a refund write and tell me...that will be one less piece i have to make, polish, wrap, ship, file and donate!

I will put my .05 in.

I will stand behind my friend. She is very genuine, sometimes to a fault. When you look at all the cost and time involved in doing the tags from start to finish, she has taken quite a loss. To me, someone who is trying to scam others or is disingenuous does not take a loss, let alone help others get ahead. The people on here who know her personally besides me will tell you the same thing if and when they decide to chime in.

Sometimes shit happens in life, this is one of those times. When someone volunteers their time, equipment, energy and soul to help others in need, you need to have more patience than if you ordered something from SAC or bc.com. They are profiting from you and should be held to a much higher standard in turn around time.

Yeah, she might have not have responded in the thread here for a while, have y'all at times gone a spell w/o being notified of thread updates? Have you had things going on in your life where yeah, TGR isn't the most important thing (i know i know, i should be shot, we ALL know TGR is the most important thing, well, besides sac when you have the cash...) and you forget to check it? Ever been scattered in your own life and forgotten things about work...Just some things to ponder.

I did not think you were a fraud. I was thinking the exact opposite.
I know most of the people who have posted in this thread recently. They are all very kind people who would literally give you the shirt off their back if you were in trouble.

And that’s why I posted in this thread.
To say hey!! Whatever is going wrong just talk to these guys.
This is not a place to cause you more stress, It the exact opposite.

Glad to see your still alive and around.

Keep in touch; share the good and the bad.

Shit happens and shit works itself out.

OK now I'm going to get off my soap box and crawl back to my dish

Same here. Didn't suspect any fraud. I was just checking order status.
In fact, I didn't realize you were not getting your raw costs covered by the sale price (ie Shipping, Materials, and Time). PM me and I will paypal you an additional amount for time, materials and shipping on my order.

**Jim S** · 11-01-2009, 03:54 PM

MTMistress,

Just posting in the thread once per week would do alot to reassure me.
Glad to see the update.

**kleverprop** · 11-02-2009, 03:58 PM

I just love the dog tag's but the lighter is super cool good way to help and remember the Big Mountain Master!

**freeheel84** · 11-02-2009, 09:47 PM

i want a tag, the link is not working, anyone else having that problem

**Spyplane** · 11-05-2009, 01:59 PM

I would like a tag as well, but the link is no longer around. I will throw in extra dough too, I would hate for you to be losing money on a good cause.

**PTracy P1** · 11-07-2009, 06:09 AM

I got mine and they were nice, OK, but i was expoecting more....after 3 months you can hardly read the engraving, etc, and i did have to wait a while for them to get here.

overal,, I really dont give a hit as i know what this was all for and i gave the money for that reason.

but in the future, you'll get further in business with 4 things:

1. Excellent communication skills, even over communicationg (people will always draw the worst comclusions for lack of customer care responses)

2. Under Promises over deliver. say 6 weeks, bnut make it 120 days.

3. Quality, Quality, Quality. Be the Ferrari, not the Dodge.

4. never blame anyonme or anything (my machine broke), but your self.

just handy points i have learned in life. thanks again for the tags, i wear it every day, and it did recenlty give me strength to gt thru a nasy bout of OSTEONECRIOSIS . just had a total R Hip replacement. Thought of Shane often, and how lucky both of us have bben in life.

thanks again - peace to all.

Not cool.

She should refund the money and stop taking orders immediately..really lame!

Iceman, then you can mail phineas a check for the bet and he can give it to his wife to spend on something nice for herself.
