Learned a "little lesson" when I ordered my 3-hinge tailgate from Paul. Mailed off a cashiers check from my credit union for $780.00 smack-a-roos. Had it sent first class international mail to Costa Rica, two months later, it's a no show. Check has already cleared. DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE I DID, NO CHECKS!!!!! :bang:




Thanks for the Shoulder:crybaby:

Have you tried contacting him? I remembering seeing a thread were he was having to move his shop. This may have something to do with the delay. I know the hub caps deal from Pakistan has gone south but I think that was more about trying to get them made. Other items are still coming in from Pakistan. Paul has aready made the tailgates so production isn't the issue. If Paul wants to sell more here on Mud I'm sure he will come thru.

Keep us posted on this goes. I'm sure others are interested. I won't write this off yet.
 
Yes, many e-mails back and forth. The check was mailed off 1-13-11. Maybe it was hijacked??? No way to prove who cashed it, but it was. Check was made out to Paul Pilgrim @ Pilgrim Restorations.
 
My mistake.:whoops: I thought you were saying the tailgate was a no show. Your saying Paul didn't receive your check but it was cashed. That is a whole other problem. Not sure how he is sent up to be paid but anymore I always use Paypal. Then it is tied to a credit card that isn't tied to any of my regular banking. That way no one can hold up any of my money while a issue is resolved. I agree sending a check is not the best thing to do. I assume it was cashed in a bank in Costa Rica.

I am really sorry to have this happen to you. Being a Central American country doesn't make it any easier to try and get resolve.:frown:
