Didn't want to do this, but I feel this is my last resort. I've been trying to get a hold of Brian for a few months now, he's not responded to emails, or phone calls. Here's the story:

March 2004, while I was living in SD, I asked Brian if he could wrap 5 rods for me, three bass rods and 2 striper rods. I gave him all components and said no rush, take your time. Well he's taken his time, there's still no rush, but I haven't heard a peep from him since about July. I have no problem if he said he doesn't have the time, I have no problem if he hasn't even started. I do have a problem with him not returning calls or emails.

Brian: Dude you can respond here if you want. All I want to know is if I am screwed. I think I am, I can take it. Won’t be the first time I got ripped off. If not and things are cool, I'll pay you for whatever work you did and you can send me my stuff back. If you are worried about me being pissed, I'm really not. I'm just disappointed it came down to airing my grievance on this site. This is the only other means I know of to get a hold of you.

To everyone who may read: I am posting this here because maybe someone who know Brian may think this is wrong and might want to do the noble thing and lend me a hand. Even if it’s letting me know it’s useless to keep trying to get my rods from Brian, that I've been ripped. I’m just looking for piece of mind.

If anyone has anything to say to me I can be reached at RobChik@aol.com or 916-505-2685

Thanks to all who sympathize or may try to help!
