WOW.....I have talked to him too but never ordered anything. I bought once from him on ebay. He seemed like an OK guy.

BUT

So did the Tankrat. So far I got my money back from the credit card but they can reverse it if they cannot get the money from him as far as I know. I wonder when and if he too is going to jail.

That amount of money though is in a whole other league. $190,000.......that's a lot more then the compared to that nickle and dime stealing the Tankrat does. Tankrat only bangs you for $30-50. But I have heard of him doing more.

What made this guy think he could get over and take that amount? He must have been desperate. After reading the story, he was. His dilemma is what is going on though out the country. If you own a business you know. You buy your inventory on credit. If you can't then you cannot stock your store, no stock, no sales......no sales no money, goodbye home, car and wife/GF. This is a bad time for companies that deal with products that are not necessities. Even the stores that do have empty selves were I live.

I hate to say this but but I had issues now with Great Models and my credit card, I will never order anything from them now.

Wow, I've ordered stuff from them several times and found them great people to deal with

I'm glad too you were able to get your money back Tony, gee whiz it's a jungle out there.

Good to hear you got your money back, Tony.

Man, I hate thieves...

This is one reason I have a credit card dedicated to online purchases (other than PayPal). I have a low credit limit on the card, $500. If I need to purchase a modeling item over $500, I would have to call my card company and have them temporarily raise the limit, although I have never done so.

This way, if the card number gets used fraudulently, the most that gets stolen is $500 less any outstanding purchases that I made before the card number was compromised.

Here's another video from YouTube done about a year ago that shows him in a better light:

Wow, been to that shop a number of times....

Glad to hear you were able to recover your money Tony...and now you have a connection, even through negative events, to a famous Hollywood personality! Next thing you know we'll see your face on the cover of "Us" or "Them" or something!

Here's an article:

One in the same as far as I know.

True, they are the same person.   How many Multi Millionaires named Peter Jackson are there in New Zealand?

I have been told somewhere in the credits for Lord of Rings you will see "Wing Nut  Wings"

Glad to hear you got that resolved Tony, that's a lot of kits.

Peter Jackson....wow.

One in the same as far as I know.

Seems Rick Berry's been taking customers money without asking permission. He picked on the wrong person by taking $190,000 from Pete Jackson's(Wingnut Wings) credit card account.

He got to me for over $1200 over a year ago. He knew how much was in my debit card account because only the outstanding checks bounced and not his. He blamed it as a mistake by his book-keeper so I never said anything in case he was telling the truth but as it turns out he just another crook.

BTW I did recover my money

Tony I thought the Article said Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings and King Kong fame not the other Peter Jackson?
