The long silence
Tuesday Apr 26, 2005
It has been almost two weeks since I heard from Patrick, so I emailed him:
Patrick,
No package so far. It is now more than 2 months since
you sent the pens
Have you heard back from the German postal
authorities on the trace?
Regards,

Another 3 weeks go by so I write again:
Patrick,
I have not heard from you more than one month. I hope
your injury is not keeping you from replying.
Please answer me.

Still no word and I sent him another email:
Patrick,
Why won't you answer me?
I have given up on the Damier set. Please return my
money.

OK, since Patrick is not responding, I give him a stern warning:
Patrick,
I have been calm and patient with you. I also have
not given up but I grow weary of this.
Please return my money. I never got the Damier you
claim to have sent.
Know that I have some influence in the pen community
and my Parker 75 website is frequently visited. I can lay bare all the facts
over this failed transaction on my website, and also notify the Writing
Equipment Society of your behavior.
Let me hear from you soon.
