I see a big rush of people trying to get their orders in at the last minute. I've decided that I'm going to let this 50% discount code last through the weekend. If you can't get your order in by then, I don't know what else I can do to help. 
Got that? 50% code (GOBBLE2010) good through the weekend.
Happy holidays, everyone!!

Thanks for extending it. I finally got around to ripping apart a few of my Assault control panels. Man, what a piece of $%#@% joystick. Takes an hour just to disassemble the stupid piece of garbage. I hate it.
Anyway, ordered a bunch of parts for the assaults joysticks. I can't wait until you have some complete replacements that are bolt and play.

Has anyone heard anything yet, or should we start filing paypal complaints?
Come on, guys. Let's be reasonable. The guy just posted this sale last Thursday and it just ended 1 day ago. Let's at least give him and the post office a couple weeks before getting to the level of a paypal complaint. Even if he overnighted everything yesterday no one would have it yet.
I know he hasn't shipped stuff from previous sales, so that must be what you're referring to.
I've sent him close to a grand for stuff that hasn't been shipped yet, but I trust he'll send it as soon as he's able.
Let's give him just a little breathing room instead of deluging him with PMs and bad-mouthing on all his threads. My fear is that doing that just slows him down more.
Just my two cents...of course you can all do whatever you want.

He'd have to post here or reply to messages or acknowledge payments for it to 'slow him down even more'.

We are all waiting for parts from his NOS IC's post and some are waiting for 2 months. I have paid over 3 weeks ago and received nothing.

I know. Me too. Just trying to stay positive. I should probably keep my mouth (keyboard) shut or people will start getting mad at me too. I have no connection with Dave...I'm just an optimist.
This is the Calm before the storm, and believe me the Storm is brewing. People need to start getting there stuff pretty soon or the Yoke fiasco will look like a day at Disneyland!!!

I would recommend anyone order anything from him right now. Why is he having promotional sales when he cant fulfill the orders that have already been paid for. Im still waiting on over $500 of parts from over two months ago. Dave throw the shit in a box, slap a label on it and get it over with. I mean come on it takes 10 minutes!

have not heard from him in 3 weeks--
I am filing a paypal dispute--this is just a bunch of bull crap!!! anyone else want to defend him? how hard is it to send out a package or even an email to let everyone know what is up?

Pretty amazing how this guy has all these great items and does such great work to have it go down the drain just to make or should I say take a few fast bucks from members here instead of having a long lasting business with constant funds coming in and community support. All this work he did and was doing is now wasted. You made fool people once, but twice is a no, no in my book. Glad I didn't spend as much as some even though I'm going to be out over $100 which aint cool! To make matters worst he post another thread trying to sell edot boards and looks like he pretty much said F... this thread. I dont normally get into all this, but I'm getting tired of people taking my money (the wrong way) and wasting my time these days.
While I'm not specifically defending anything, 2 things people never seem to think about are:
But again, like was mentioned earlier, anyone who orders and expects to receive their item quickly either hasn't seen what has happened in the past with Dave (i.e. they're new) or is ignoring the past (in which case quit your whining and realize that you knew what you were getting yourself into).
For anyone who falls into the "new" category, these issues tend to spiral out of control on the boards here when Dave is absent, but in the end he gets things taken care of. That's just my observation from watching the boards here. I don't know Dave personally and have no special insight into these issues.
- It's silly to say something like "it only takes 10 minutes to ship my order". You're not factoring in that he may have 50 orders in his queue, and for someone who doesn't do this full time, that might be difficult to deal with quickly.
- There are periods of time when he doesn't log on here for whatever reason (I assume due to how busy he is). So just because he doesn't respond to these types of threads quickly doesn't mean he has disappeared, doesn't care, or is ripping anyone off.

My only issue to what your saying TheShanMan. Communication is the key! If he only has a few minutes out his busy schedule then he shouldn't post anything new for sale. Instead of trying to sell something else or maybe get more money from someone, why not reply to this thread and say (Hey guys I'm real sorry, Ive been swampped with orders and working on getting everyones items shipped)! That right there took me about 4 seconds to type out. His edot for sale thread was longer than that, so he had a little more time. I'm not try to bash him or anything like that, but he is taking money from some good people on this forum and not giving them there product. Riptor, myself and I'm sure others sell a lot of stuff on here and we get backed up too or atleast I can speak for myself. But there has never been a situation where I wouldn't reply back to someone who purchased something from me wondering where there item is. That right there will alway raise a red flag and this is not the first time, so he should know better if he wants to contunie selling his items.

I'm new in the sense that I registered with KLOV in 2010. However, I have certainly been here long enough to know that orders from RAM controls take months not weeks. I have corresponded and talked on the phone with Dave in the past and he seems to be completely above board. I have only recently placed an order with him.
Based on others comments, I made the assumpiton that this was going to be a fantastic product that I would not receive for some time. I'm not saying it's okay, just expected it. Most of this would probably be much improved with better communication.

Thats all Im saying (COMMUNICATE)! Not hard, doesn't take more that a minute of your time. Let people know whats going on. He seemed to be a great guy with his free giveaways and all these new products he is making to keep this hobby alive, but at the same time if your not going to send somewhere product after a month or so and dont say anything about it, who the hell is going to trust sending you money. If your swampped say so, if your busy with other thing, but promise to get everyone there stuff say so, JUST SAY SOMETHING!
