Lone Star Models: Anyone Know the Guy?


Recommended Posts

All,

 

I just want to add to this discussion of what I have been able to gather from Mike's posts on FB.  Me personally, I have been waiting and watching LSM ever since Mike bought lock, stock and barrel of Cobra Company from Chris Miller.  Over the last few months he has posted mostly updates on his PBY resin kit and yes, he has posted that his website is broken and is busy trying to get it up and running.  He is planning to be a vendor at the IPMS Nationals in Texas the first weekend in August.  I am of the opinion that he has everything shut down right now to A) fulfill as many backlog orders that he can and B) to build up his inventory to sell, sell, sell at the Nats.  He has already mentioned that the folks that have ordered the fore mentioned PBY, have been waiting for a year or more.  He has hinted that the website will probably not be active until after the Nats (Aug 2-5).

 

I will be honest with you folks, I would have loved to be at the Nationals this year but all of my road buddies have bailed on me and I hate to have to make that trip alone.  I would have loved to just be there to see what Mike had and probably spend a lot of money with him.  So I guess I will disappear back down my rabbit hole and wait for him to re-open.

 

Best Regards,

Ken Bailey

Fool me again. 
Mike emails me directly a few weeks ago. He says he now has the Pavelow sets in stock and he could ship me one that Saturday. Granted this was before Labor Day weekend. 
I reply that I'm glad he's feeling better and back to getting sets out. Sent the money via PP immediately.
Poof, radio silence again. No product. No replies on email but he's active on FB. And he saw the DM I sent him this morning. 
Old, unwell or whatever but damn this is stupid and irresponsible. Filing for a refund now, again.
