Pisses me off someone took advantage of Ron's good will. Ron kindly sent me two gaskets...  Wes, own up and fes.  Post your first cook here and give the retired guy his damned money!

    After 16 years and 4,227 gaskets, maybe this is the first check that got lost in the mail.   Who knows?

    I assume @RRP sent the gasket out to the fellow so I also assume he has the guys address.

    Could round up a posse and knock on Wes' door.

    Nope! I have sent a "kind reminder" via US mail and repeated emails.

    Granted I'm not going to the poorhouse over $11, but it just amazes me that a man's word is not worth a lousy $11.

    LOL he's not in Ron's thread, because that one just got nuked.  And this one is sinking. The Buffalo is a curious beast.

    I had already checked the obits with no luck. BTW I also sent him a message on LinkedIn, but never heard back from there. I figured since he has never replied to that message I found the right person, otherwise if it wasn't I'm sure the recipient would have hollered!

    A sincere thank you to all who had contributed to my initial thread trying to locate this person. I stay amazed that that man's word isn't worth a measly $11.

    Ron, he’s a deadbeat.  Are you still interested in refunding my fees?  Sorry this guy stiffed you.  Give it a pass.

    I believe he is as well and in fact I wrote off that $11 loss in May.

    Yes, I did offer to refund your money and at least I, NOT Wes Johnson in Indianapolis, am a man of my word. Refresh my memory via your PM (OR by sending me an email to ron.pat@comcast.net) and your FULL refund will be on it's way!

    I am headed to bed right now, so please don't think any reply to MY offer was not sincere!...I will catch up in the morning.
