amazingkevin Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 That's a good way IKE, but the time they waste of yours ping ponging around gets to be too much and then the profit margin is lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted November 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 We had a deal ,he's seen my work ,he's bought from me before and payed in full to start with on his own recognicence,but everything went sour when it got time to get paid.He loved it but then wanted it painted which he should have told me to do to start with,$5 minutes waiting to get paid is unheard of.That's disrespectfull of me.Deal was he wanted something nice and left it up to me.Nothing was ever painted for him before.I was supposed to get p[aid at 11:30 when he gets out of work .that did not happen .ok you want it painted ,then give me the $50 bucks now for services renderd and for another 20 i paint it.He wanted to pay all at once ,That's not going to happen after making me wait 45 minutes out of my busy day and this was a rush job too.a two hour window which i filled.

Tdub4ever Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 I feel you Kevin. I have a box full of work that people ordered and then changed their mind or when I tell them it is finished I never hear from then again. I have a document on my webpage that explains my prepay policy. If someone asks about placing an order, I mention the policy I have posted and ask if they have read it. If they say no, I ask them to read it first. I will not even put an order in line for production without payment. I love to scroll myself, but I will not let anyone else rip me off. There are alot of people out there that want my work and are willing to pay up front. I don't have to take chances anymore with the people that don't pay or change their mind in buying something. Stand your ground, you do awesome work, well worth the money you ask! amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Scroller Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Kevin if I make something and they decide they don't want it I'm afraid they will be wearing it. joking aside that's never happened to me, perhaps because I tell them to draw it or give me a picture and I'll cut it.

heppnerguy Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I bet the guy that placed the order and then refused it, has not lost any sleep over this whole thing, Unfortunately, I don't think that is not the case for you, Kevin. It is really worth all this fuss ? You are the only one that is miserable because of this guy. I just would not do anything else for him unless he paid up front. Case closed. The thing I like about scrolling is the personal cost to do it almost nothing. Surely not worth ruffling your feathers about.

ike Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I would just as soon not make special orders . 99% of the time it isn't quite what they wanted. I sometimes wonder if they know what they wanted, at a show I give them a card and tell them to e mail me what they want that way you have it in whitening what they want.

NC Scroller Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I avoid special orders like a passion unless it is from someone I really know. Besides I want to work on the projects I want to when I want to. I have enough deadlines in my real job. Sorry you got burned Kevin but sounds like you will recover fully.

Ron Johnson Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Beautiful work Kevin. I agree with DW. It's okay to have a big heart but in my books it's not okay to be taken advantage of. Everyone to their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
