Mr. Barnes,
Hello, I've seen you on the digitsmith used equipment forums and it seems you may have a working relationship with
Southern Screen Inkstitute. It' s been a little over a month that I purchased a used Javelin from Nick James and Jason
Rodriguez for $16000. It was a 8/10 press. So far they have failed to deliver and offered an Olympian 8/10 as a replacement
stating the Javelin had a bent shaft. They don't answer phone calls or emails regularly and when they do they have nothing but
excuses. They have all the money in there hands and I'm wondering if you have anything to do with these guys or if you could help me out
in some way or tell me more about them. I'm wondering if I have got myself in a mess. Any response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for you time.

Hello S#####(leaving customer name out),
Thank you for your email ... I am very appreciative that you have contacted me as a liaison (instead of BLASTING'em on DigitSmith) ... However ... not to be distrustful -or- accusatory -but- is it has been my experience that there are (2) sides to every story -and- reality sometimes falls in the middle (perhaps the 3rd side)
Obviously since SpiderMachines has an indirect relationship with these boys ... I have cc'd Jason, Nick, Paul, etc. on this ... Perhaps they can shed some light on their side of the topic :-?
Note: My strong suggestion is to exhaust ALL efforts to resolve this between you-and-them before posting a formal complaint on DigitSmith !!!
If necessary ... I would be happy to have a conference call between you-and-them (some times a mediator can help)
Once again ... Thank you for your email (next time hopefully on better circumstances)
Robert Barnes

SORRY THIS HAD TO BE POSTED PUBLICALLY...BUT ENUFF IS ENUFF!!!!!!! THESE FOLKS SAVED THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY FOR THIS AUTO TO NOT HAVE YOU GIVE THEM THE USED CAR SALESMAN RUN-AROUND. PLEASE BECOME FORTHCOMING WITH THESE HARD WORKING PEOPLE IN TEXAS...THEY ARE FIXING TO PRESS CHARGES ON YOU...IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ME POSTING THIS, CONTACT MY LAWER IN MARIETTA...HE HAS ALSO BEEN SHOWN AND DOCUMENTED THRU THE COURTS MY TEXT MESSAGING INORDER THAT I MAY PROTECT MYSELF AND MY INTERESTS. AGAIN, PLEASE STOP BEING UN-CONFRONTATIONAL WITH MY FRIENDS IN TEXAS...THEY WANT TO KNOW WHY YOU WILL NOT SEND THEIR MONEY BACK??!!!??? THEY HAVE ASKED YOU AND MYSELF NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN I WORKED FOR SOUTHERN SCREEN INKSTITIUTE...THE MONEY WAS SENT FROM TEXAS VIA A MONEY WIRE TRANSFER ( fyi: FEDERAL OFFENSIVE OVER$10,000) OVER 2 MONTHS AGO AND THERE STILL IS NO JAVELIN...IN FACT YOU SAID THE FIRST JAVELIN HAD A BENT SHAFT...
WRONG, THE SECOND AUTO OFFERED WAS AN OLYMPIAN IN ALABAMA...APPARENTLY THE SELLER TOOK THE OLYMPIAN OFF THE MARKET CAUSE HIS WIFE HAD A
LEAN ON IT...
THE ONLY LEAN ON THE OLYMPIAN WAS WHEN MY FRIEND AND I WERE LEANING ON THE AUTO

- I WANT TO THANK ROBERT BARNES FOR HELPING AIR THIS OUT WHEN HE DID. IF IT WAS NOT FOR RWB FORWARDING ME THE ABOVE EMAIL, MY NAME AND REPUTATION WOULD HAVE BEEN BASED UPON THE REPUTATION OF THE OWNERS OF SOUTHERN SCREEN INKSTITUTE...I SPENT MY OWN GAS MONEY AND DROVE TO TEXAS TO APPOLOGIZE FACE TO FACE FOR THE ABOVE EMAIL AND FOR ALLOWING MYSELF TO GO ALONG WITH SSINK...THERE WERE PLENTY OF TIMES WHEN MY JOB WAS HUNG OVER MY HEAD AND IF I DID
NOT LIE TO SAID CUSTOMER, I WOULD LOSE MY JOB...WHEN I HAD A COMING TO JESUS PARTY WITH SOUTHERN SCREEN 2 WEEKS AGO ABOUT MYSELF BECOMING FORTHCOMING WITH TEXAS, I GOT THREATENED AND FIRED...
I DONT REALLY CARE WHAT ANYONE THINKS OF ME FOR THIS...THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE...IF YOU WANT AN HONEST USED EQUIPMENT DEALER, PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH...ASK FOR REFERENCES, FEEL FREE TO PRIVATE MESSAGE PEOPLE AND ASK THEIR OPPINION OF "US" SALES FOLKS...BUT DO NOT LET YOURSELF BE HOODWINKED BY A BELLY TO BELLY USED CAR SALESMAN...CAUSE YOU WILL BUY A LEMON FROM THESE FOLKS..IM SURE PLENTY OF YOU HAVE HAD UN-EXPECTED COST WHEN YOUR AUTO WASN'T SET UP RIGHT.
"IF I KNEW THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW"
THANKS,
Nick.
