Is Chris from SplitInfinity okay? His partner says he lost his eyesight last night?
 
Does anyone know if this is true?

He owes me money, hasn't paid me a dime for split.com, and now his partner tells my partner that "Chris lost his eyesight on the way to wire your [my] money" last night.

I really really hope he's okay, but I feel like I've been completely made a fool of, again and again.

April Fools? If so, I ain't laughing.

If it's true, Chris, I sincerely hope you're okay.

But I'm turning off the dns for split after been bullshitted to for 30 days.

DomBuyer 04-01-2005 02:29 PM

To those messaging me, this is no joke. I'd like to know if it's true that Chris went to the hospital last night after losing his vision.

This was after he spent the whole day telling me "I'm just on my way to the bank" after a month of "I don't have $5k! I'll have it next week!"

I hope it's not true, but the drama with this guy has been second to none, period.

Paulzy 04-01-2005 02:29 PM

Looks like theyve run out of money, wonder how much longer their servers will stay up?

tranza 04-01-2005 02:29 PM

If you think his partner is telling the true you really shouldn't turn off his dns.

Manowar 04-01-2005 02:32 PM

If he did loose his eyesight, get well soon chris.

Would suck if you were being played though DomBuyer :(

Even if it's true, it's already too late, that's the thing. I spent a month listening to this guy's excuses about how a company like his couldn't come up with a measly $5k to pay the first month's lease payment.

If I posted the excuses, all of you would snicker. My partner has 'em all saved up.

Rich 04-01-2005 02:35 PM

If it's true, hopefully it's not permanent.

If it's a lie, that has to be one of the lowest things I've heard on GFY, minus of course Dave Stoghill's tragedy related scams.

"I lost my eyesight on the way to paying you the $5k I owed you for a month now"



now tell me, does this actually sounds credible ? ?? :1orglaugh :error

prodiac 04-01-2005 02:45 PM

Actually it is true, he did spend the night in the hospital because of his vision. Anything else in this topic, should be discussed with him.

Holly 04-01-2005 02:46 PM

I heard he has Bird Flu.

Too late. I don't like being made a fool. He gave me his word that I would be paid BEFORE the end of March, and he broke his word, time and again.

Personally, I wish him the best for his recovery. Business-wise, time's up.

Arn't you Chris Eastman?

Good luck getting your money DomBuyer. I hate when people get ripped off. I know its happened to me a few times on content deals, with ex-friends, etc.

tedwinters 04-01-2005 03:02 PM

Sounds fishy... On his way to the bank when he loses his vision???
I could understand if he lost his vision in the past few days, and had been planning to go to the bank... but other than that... :(

I know Chris is a good guy and well liked.

But he wasted my time, energy and traffic, and didn't follow through on payment despite lots of time. I take contracts seriously.

When a business cannot raise $5k to meet its obligations, it doesn't bode well.

It sucks, but it's the truth.

Broda 04-01-2005 03:30 PM

How does this match any leasing arrangement?

Chris converted the sale to a lease arrangement.

blind people cant sign checks?

shuki 04-01-2005 03:42 PM

I would lose my sight too looking at a bill :winkwink:

Sorry to hear about it Dom.

Frankly I think they should still pony up the first months $5k and then you guys can go your seperate ways. One day late is enough let a lone 30 :2 cents:

no shit, was thinking the same thing....5k is low for that domain imo...


but give Chris a shot to make things right, he's a good guy from most accounts that I know of...and the few times I've met & interacted with him he came off as a nice and straight forward guy....

split_joel 04-01-2005 04:08 PM

It is true about him losing his vision, but even so why post it on the board? If you have issues deal with the person personaly not over a board, when the person in question cant even defend himself because he is sick.

He's icq'ing me right now, so I guess he's not that sick.

split_joel 04-01-2005 04:19 PM

he really was sick and your about to see that right now

Whether he was sick last night or not is not the issue. He didn't pay me OVER 30 DAYS AFTER HE SIGNED THE CONTRACT. All the rest is details.

If he pays me from here on in, it's because I had to go public to get him to pay me. Don't start attacking me. It ain't gonna work.

split_joel 04-01-2005 04:42 PM

im not attacking you, I am defending my friend whom I have known for many years, and I know he would not just pay you for no reason, and it was lame and pointless to post this on the board, and put his rep on the line. Chris is a good guy and anyone who has ever meet or delt with him before knows that.

Sorry, don't get your logic: Because he's a good guy, he doesn't have to honor his contracts?

If he had come to me and said "I don't have the money" I would have said "I understand. I'm not thrilled, but I understand."

Instead and he jerked me around and around. I asked him point blank if he wanted to get out of the deal and he said 'no' and the merry-go-round continued.

If anything this public spanking will prevent him from doing this to anyone else. I gave him many opportunities to avoid just such a spanking.

Repeat: don't blame the victim. I tried to accommodate him, but he made a fool of me.

Enough. I'm going to dinner.

DomBuyer 04-01-2005 05:00 PM

By the way, Chris, the only way I turn the dns back is if you have someone paypal me $5k.

In the meantime, the name is back up for sale.

Fake Nick 04-01-2005 05:02 PM

quiet sad a "big" company like that can't pay bills for $5k over deals they publicised
