: Hmmm,
: Sounds to me like you should maybe just concede that Arcade2000 was a good business idea gone wrong and shut up shop!
Actually, it was a good idea, but not a good business. One of the things you really can't do, in this business, unless you overcharge, is make any money. A lot of money was spent, and I lost a lot due to theft, and litigation with a vendor. As it was I would maybe make $50 on each unit, which isn't even an issue since the extra expenses unforseen killed that.
: Obviously you would want to recompense those that have outstanding business with you before disappearing off the face of the planet.
Well, I am not disappearing anywhere. I will still post here, and when I am in NY I can acces my email, and reply, and I am already getting money out to people as we speak. I don't run away from my problems, I run into them though.
: The worst thing about excuses is that's all they ever are!!
True. While most of my problems were valid, and for a while uncontrollable, some were self-inflicted due to anxiety and poor handling. (and I'm not making excuses, just stating a fact).
Anyway, I appreciate the post.
