I never learn: hired another dead beat programmer from India for 1000$
 
Third time, i bet this one is going to disappear too when our "signature piece program' gets too tough. I picked this one as he was the expert in the field and could show real already done sites like we're looking for.

He even upped his fee after i said we were happy he already wrote a program like that before, from 1000 to 1500. I told him that was a no-no and so he changed it back, should have been a red sign;/

I should have taken the other guy who acted like my slave, he was more expensive and had to start from scratch, i did not have faith in that either, lol.

Not easy being cheap.

That's what i thought, yet he gave me attitude and kept asking for money;-)

The sole reason of me picking him, was that he had a similar project already there.

Project is due July 1st, i'm actually gonna report back here to state what i've learned (again). Hopefully not fortune telling.

So true. You could probably have hired konrad, borked, Brandon Stills for same money.

use freelancer.com and their escrow payments. Also choose a provider based on their previous feedback

You couldn't be more ignorant. You could probably try, but you wouldn't succeed.

1k in india won't set him up for life.. but its nice for sure.
thing is; those dudes are lazy.. i dont use foreign programmers like those again because the results are always half-assed.
