Cablepair Tom - quantifiable damage?

February 04, 2013, 12:38:15 AM

I've recently learned of Tom / Cablepair and was just wondering if I can get the community's take on this:

What was the damage - can anyone quantify how much he owes back to his paying customers?

I understand from a post by Buzzdave that Credit Card orders were all refunded back - can this be validated - is anyone still missing their CC refund?

Looks like Bogart is trying to track the refunds:

Not really, only insiders.

Buzzdave said that Tom refunded $1.000.000+ to CC clients.

I don't think there's anyone who actually believes this... except maybe some CC clients that got their money back.

The refund-list in the thread from Bogart is small and it looks like Tom really didn't get enough orders...

(Maybe a mod can move this thread ?)

Yes I do - chose it for my post to get input from the community/society. Do you suggest something better, other than Other?

No, other is right where it belongs.
