Ram controls current reputation?

About a month ago, I ordered the pots and linkages for an atari gimble controller. A week later the amount of the linkages were refunded to me, and the pots showed up a couple of days later my pots showed up. Kind of disappointing, as the linkage was the part I really needed, the pots I could have gotten elsewhere. My understanding of the current situation is that the website and all the inventory was sold to someone else and the guy who stole everyone's money has nothing to do with it anymore.

of course you got those parts, and like you said you couldve got them elsewhere
the linkage on the other hand is another one of those "phantom products"
and since they cant afford any problems with Paypal right now you got refunded
Though funny those are still listed as a "in stock item"
proabably for some sucker to come along and order some in bulk.

I warned of this a month ago when it was posted that Ram Controls was "closing shop"
this was nothing more then another sales tatic IMO to get some quick easy sales
as Im sure they have some things on hand that can be shipped pretty quick this is what helped make their scams work in the first place. but most of those items can still be had elsewhere.


I think a Saturday Supercade PSA Ram Controls Recap is in order for those that just dont GAF/care or have the time to read through an entire forum dedicated to fellow collectors who got screwed.

Yes Rich, bring that back-- way back. Funny stuff. On the OP, maybe you should try some good seller of Atari parts such as Stephen, aka Mylstar, out here on the forums...
 
I needed some parts that only they offered. I ordered them. I got one of them. Someone asked if anyone had any experience with Ram-Controls lately. I shared my experience. I ordered $60 worth of parts. It's not like I am giving him a $5000 deposit on a Star wars cockpit like some of you morons did.

Fiz, I am here because I have a hobby that I enjoy. I am not here to insult people and drive them away, which this community is so good at. But, Fiz, if you want to trade insults, I'm your huckleberry. Also, I am not trying to defecate on anybody, although I hear your mother likes it on her chest, Fiz.

Either this asshole is Ram or he is so stuck on himself he can't see past his own dick.
Thank God what goes around comes around
 
OK, so for those in the know, what is a good source of RAM (or I guess anyone made) Star Wars Yokes and Lunar Lander controls? I just missed the ones Grant listed on here, and he sold his for $350, about $200 more than RAM charges.

I'd rather get these from another seller, one KLOV supports, but a $200 mark up seems a bit, extreme...

EDIT: Not that I would get them from RAM even if he sold them for cheap, I mean, I'd actually like to GET the product!
 
So I shouldn't have ordered from Ram and I apologize. I think some of the comments made are out of line. I apologize for calling some of you morons for getting taken like you did. This whole situation with Ram is way too much drama than I want to deal with. I do have a question, how did Mylstar come in to so much of their inventory? Is it ok to buy the Ram stuff from him?
 
Because I bought my stock long before the scamming started. I paid cash, in person.
And I don't have a lot of it. I bought 5 - 10 pieces of each part I have listed.
Most of my 720 parts the are repro I had made on my own.
 
I think some of the comments made are out of line.?

You think?

Jon is way more understanding than me,if you talked about taking a shit on my mothers chest,id be making a road trip. And FWIW,you should have been infracted/temp banned for this.
 
I haven't been keeping up with the scene lately, but I am in need of a new SW yoke or rebuild kit. Is it safe to order from Ram Controls? Have they been rehabilitated or is it the same old story of Order-N-Pray ? Curious if anyone has any recent personal experience good or bad. Thanks!
I hear Adolph Hitler's estate is having a sale on furnaces. You interested?

The problem you have r-tree is that being a giant douche here puts you on plenty of do not sell lists. Good luck finding your next rare part douchebag.

Dude this seriously crosses the line. I actually feel sad for you because if you had any type of a decent relationship with your mother or respect for anyone elses mother you wouldn't be posting this vile crap.

This should be deleted and the poster temp/perm banned.

It's all good Darin. :) He's likely just a kid being a kid. I was a little rough on the tyke earlier... so I supposed I had it coming. :D

It's just that this is a pretty sensitive topic for many here... myself being one of the more vocal from the get-go.

I began warning people on RGVAC (before there was a KLOV) and it carried over into here and I caught a ton of crap from the Kool-Aid drinkers.

Even got weekly calls and emails from Dave threatening me.
