Does the owner of www.gamereproductions.com frequent these forums? Need help contacting him

[greedostick]

Hello. I placed an order at www.gamereproductions.com on may 3rd 2013. A few years ago I sent this guy (wayne acree) over 75 snes games as trade in credit. We talked back and forth and eventually after a few years I paid him $41.99 for some repros on top of my $300.00 trade in credit. This was after confirming with him it was still OK to finish the deal as I had taken a long time to pay because I would forget, or he would be taking a break to catch up on orders when I went to pay. He has always been kind of hard to reach but he has always responded in the past and his webiste is still up so I assume after these years of still being in business he must be a decent guy. So i'm wondering if he is having issues or something. His website is always weird and says stuff like "my email is messed up right now might take a few days to respond". or when sending paypal don't include a note because I can't process your order. I know that sounds bad but he has always responded and seems to update frequently.


Anyway I would like some info on reaching this guy because the webiste message never gets me a response. I tried going to my payment and taking his direct email with no luck.

Does anyone know how to reach this guy? If he is still in good standing? Or just anyone who maybe got an order recently who can shed some light and maybe contact him for me?

Its usually a month turn around for a single game from him, so if you placed a large order expect it to be a while. His communication skills are certainly lacking, but as far as I know hes still doing good.

Can I ask what games were involved in this? Not all of the trade in games, but what games did you want repoed?

i wouldn't panic, it's all good. just give him time to respond. he might be a little busier than normal. if things have gone south, then you'll eventually get an email from him explaining what you need to do to get moneys paid or credits back. just be patient and allow the owner some time to reply to you.

also, he's being smart like other merchants i have seen on the internet - they're apparently leaving pay pal and using a stronger more merchant friendly payment system like google checkout or something else. so this might explain why your pay pal payments wont go through.

read his about us page:

also read his FAQ

A: Depending on how many orders are in, please allow up to 1 month (Current as of 07/31/08) after payment was sent. Sometimes longer, depending on how many orders are in. If this is an issue, please email.

I finally reached him. Took a month and a half. He said he just had a baby and will start slowly shipping Hanes soon. He is actually the one that told me to use PayPal so that's why I did it. But I agree PayPal is crap. So hopefully I start seeing a few repros soon. I got...

Earthbound X2
Secret of mana 3
Final Fantasy V
Final fantasy 2 NES
Final fantasy 3 NES
Moon crystal
Monster world IV

So I'm pretty eager to play these. Guess it kinda sucks waiting 3 months but at least I heard something. Not bad for trading in 75 copies of snes sports games I paid 0.50 cents each for. So I can't complain there. Thanks for the help everyone :)
