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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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... :(

www.split.com :upsidedow

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.

"Chris lost his eyesight on the way to wire your [my] money"


Anyone want to buy a bridge in Brooklyn? I got one for sale! Real cheap too!

You should use escrow.com :pimp

Sorry to hear about your predicatment DomBuyer. You are, yourself, a class act to do business with.

escrow doesn't cover lease

I might be interested, please ICQ me 171130893.

I know. Consider it a joke ;)

I was thinking about the same :upsidedow

How does this match any leasing arrangement?

Chris converted the sale to a lease arrangement.

blind people cant sign checks?

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:

... if 5k is the askingprice,hit me up, I am interested.

No it was a lease payment

Is it back on the market? C - email me if so. I'm interested again.

Thank you.

Multiply that by a number no less than five.

:thumbsup

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....

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.

Yes I am, and it wasn't me that this conversation was about.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Your guy was out to dinner when the wire arrived... so you go and post this shit?
Not funny. And not cool to make me look like a liar when I was undergoing what they considered a possible stroke at the time. Take the domain, I dont want to do business with you. You are a heartless drama queen.

"AIM IM with Seraphim Marcopoulos <logicbank>

Hi ....
Sorry .... out late this afternoon. My wife's birthday
What's up?
He messed up
I faxed you the documents.
3:30 PM
OK. Just got them at 5:18 PM EST
Yeah, But too late.... he already slandered me publicly.
Why "slandered"?
You saw the post he made im sure.
No. I just stepped in ... but I will tell you that he was very upset the past week. Its not about the money but about honour. Anyone who knows DomBuyer knows he always pays on time. So it was hard to understand the issues in this matter.
3:35 PM
OK. Took a look. It seems that $4000 USD was to be sent today (April 1st, 2005) and $6000 USD is to be sent on April 6th, 2005. Correct?
Yep, but forget it now, he really did a bad thing just now to me. Really bad. Im getting lots of problems over this already. Customers and etc....
How do you want to resolve it ?
3:55 PM
That was really low of him. Regardless of his frustration, he can GF himself. Keep the domain. I was laying in a fucking hospital bed and he pulls this shit
I am currently away from the computer.
I dont take to that kindly.

Big Fokin Ouch!

either way , someone fucked up , and business is not all about heart ,

and caring about each other,

you dont pay , you dont get the service and a pissed off saleman


the deal was you buy for $40k , that was the deal, then you change the deal and want a lease ,and then you dont pay for the lease


hmm, who is wrong here ? ?

I don't know the full story, but you guys did post a public thread about aquiring the domain, and if he's been waiting 30 days, or even 7 days for a promised and contracted payment, I think he's well within his rights to redirect the DNS and consider the contract null and void for non-payment. As far as saying something publically, well, he says you left him waiting and furnished a lot of excuses? But like I said, I don't know the full story. I just think you're throwing a tantrum because people found out you weren't paying..

Edited to remove those big images.

WHAT KIND OF IDIOT ARE YOU QUOTING POSTS LIKE THAT


ITS BAD ENOUGH SPLITINFINITY IS SOOOO STUPID TO POST THEM DUMBASS PICS , no you had to quote them



you need a brain !!!!

You know what? You are still LIABLE for the $5000 and any other payments that were listed in the contract.

You know why?

Because your hospital stunt has NO relavancy to this. YOU ARE 30 DAYS LATE You only were in the hospital last night.

so dont even try to use the hospital as an excuse because its just a cover up for non payment.

Sure, you got bitch slapped here on the forums, not paying makes you seem more like a broke ass bitch than it does an insult to DomBuyer.

I would pay rather than lose whatever integrity i had left.

You've had use of the domain for quite some time now, and that time should be compensated to DomBuyer.
I really hope he doesnt let you slide.

I didn't see that there were images when I quoted it, they must be hosted at a really slow host. I edited and removed them, chill the fuck out.

yeah , sorry , was kind off pissed about those pics in the first place and all of the sudden they were TWICE in this thread

and yeah they are hosted at SPLITINFINITY , wich appearantly is a REALLY BAD HOST , thos pics load like forever

Yeah, they are hosted at a really slow host.. split infinity... hahaha :1orglaugh

Bingo!

Don't turn this around on Dombuyer. The way one stops things from going to the boards is by taking care of things promptly. If your mortgage payment was 30 days late they wouldn't care. Don't make things personal when they are clearly business.
