elton01 0 #1 August 2, 2009 Hi all, Does anyone know how to get in touch with Allen Mack. (He's selling collapsible pilotchutes under the DZ.com name "chutebuilder"). I've purchased a collapsible PC from him and was hoping to get it before I left for a boogie on Aug. 7th. I've tried to email him but I haven't gotten an answer and I'm hoping he's just been out jumping and hasn't had a chance to return my email. If anyone has a telephone number for him, or knows if he's at a DZ, that would be an immense help. Thanks all, Elton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elton01 0 #4 August 2, 2009 Yeah, I don't think Allen is scamming or anything. I just wanted to give him a friendly reminder that I need this done so I can install it and jump.If I don't hear from him by Monday evening then it will be a rush order to Para-gear to ship a PC to NY. At that point though I'd want a refund for my PC payment to Allen, which just turns out to be a headache for all concerned. So, if anyone can get a hold of Allen, either get him to email me, or call. Thanks, Elton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elton01 0 #8 August 25, 2009 Well, It's official.... Allan Mack of the following address(see below email) is now considered a scammer in my books. Over 5 weeks of waiting for a pilot chute and this PR!*K has not gotten back to me. I've given him every chance to explain, to give a rough estimate on time to completion, to sending back my payment. NOTHING. He seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth. Here is our email trail with his address. He uses the name Shawn Mack in his email. That should have given me warning. (The email also shows an Ohio reference, yet the payment went to California.. Another warning sign that I should have heeded). ANYHOW, if anyone knows this piece of SH&T, let him know that I'll be looking for him at any dropzone I may visit in California for the rest of my jumping days. I've tried calling the number, but I didn't get an answer, it just rang with no pickup. Hopeless. ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "shawn mack" > > To: > > Sent: Saturday, July 11, 2009 1:25 PM > > Subject: Re: Dropzone.com Classifieds - Response to > your > > Ad > > > > > > > > yes it is brand new ,never used.my addy is; > > c. allan mack > > 38544 33 rd st east > > palmdale ca 93550 > > 661 839 7577 > > thanks i will be watchin for the mail.

likestojump 3 #9 August 25, 2009 seems like the person is real http://www.google.com/search?q=661-839-7577&hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=L07&filter=0 That obviously does not make you any less screwed. He does have an active listing on Craiglist, just a few days old, so it's possible he has switched to a new email address, or is just ignoring you. Send him an anonymous email to his craislist ad from a different account with a generic question. see which address he responds from.. good luck and let the bastards rot.

elton01 0 #10 August 26, 2009 Hmm, Go to http://www.shga.com/forum/phpBB2/search.php?search_author=nitrochute Here he is on a hang glider site selling reserve repacks as an FAA certified rigger. He's using the name "nitrochute". I finally got through to an automatic answering service on his phone. I've left a message telling him to address these issues that I and others have with him. If he does so, I'm more than willing to retract my statements, if he doesn't , oh well, maybe these will make someone else think twice about dealing with him.

mjosparky 4 #12 October 16, 2009 Seems like he used to go by the name Charles Mack. http://www.chutingstar.com/archives/00000060.html Go down to the last paragraph. I remember a couple of years ago there were some posts on here about him ripping off people.
