I usually only briefly scan the e-gold list and the Free-Market e-gold
forum every other day or three and make postings only once in a while --
I just don't have time to do otherwise. However, a friend of mine said
that there have been several postings I need to respond to & he
CC'd them to me.
First, TG's orders were voided back in October, so there's no e-gold
for me to credit because the credit card transactions were reversed a
long time ago (notification was sent at the time). Below is a copy of a
bulk E-mail being sent to relevant individuals, including TG (at
this time I don't know if he's received it yet -- but in short, this
person's remedy, as stated in the copy below, will most likely require
that his institution issue a chargeback or otherwise get the
money from the debiting institution) -- which brings me to another point
. . . I have 1035 of these particular E-mails to send (they're still
going, at this very second there's 212 to go). The SMTP connection with
my ISP is quirky with anywhere from 5 sec to a little over a minute in
delays between outgoing messages -- this time adds up. Plus there's a
few thousand other messages to send out to other customers on other
issues.
On a slow day (that's day, not week) I have to sort through
about 300 E-mails. On an average day I get about 3-4 thousand -- true,
most of it is just junk that has slipped through my spam/junk filters,
but since a lot of it bears the E-mail of past and current
clients I must at least try to look to see if there's actual business at
hand. If you do the math you realize I can't really even glance at all
of them, I have to use a filter and search criteria to get to the
business at hand.
In addition to sorting through the mess caused by credit cards
(taking PayPal & credit cards was the worst business descision I ever
made), sorting through E-mails, and conducting various research
projects, I must keep the current order flow moving, -- which I
have done very well.
All-in-all, with the bulk of the credit card mess behind me,
business is much more pleasureable and is becoming much more manageable
-- I don't have to worry about waking up the next day to a notice saying
that I'm out $250,000 or more due to credit card fraud. Also with
upcomming improvements in the EZCmoney system I will be able to offer a
level service second to none! Stay tuned, exciting developments are in
the works.
So to sum up, this person and others are not being ignored, but
due to the volume that is being delt with, there are delays here and
there, also these delays are exacerbated by people still trying to scam
me on past credit card orders (both filled, unfilled, and nonexistant --
I'll spare you the details); which means I have to treat every one of
the old credit card transactions as if it were coming from a known
fellon.
That's all for now
PECB
