Hey all,
Just curious if anyone knows or has recently heard from tridude (Don) here on the forum.
I bought a PL Zero7 bar from him on 11/7/12, send PayPal payment 11/7 and the transaction went through fine. It's been over three weeks now and still
no bar.
I have sent two U2U's, an email, and even a text message trying to get an update but have not heard anything back yet.
I hope all is well with him. He's got great feedback in the Good Trader section so I bought w/confidence. Looks like he was last on the forum 11/10
so perhaps he's just been busy?
Been waiting on this bar to try out some of the arcs I've picked up recently, but haven't been able to. 
I should mention that he was going to replace the CL and depower line on it, but I didn't think it would take weeks. 
thanks,
Mike

I know Him very well. He just got out of the hospital. I will send him a note so that he is reminded of the transaction.

Don / Tridude will make things right. Have no fear. I know he would have shipped it if he could. One of the best buyers and sellers on this forum.

I spoke to him yesterday. He is recovering well. He is honest to a fault so don't worry about it working out. He just got clearance to drive
yesterday so he should be able to get you taken care of soon.

I have had a stellar transaction with him, I would absolutely trust him to deliver, but as I understand it, a health issue cropped up.
Sorry to hear about the delay, but I would guarantee you'll get the bar!

aw man, now I feel bad.. I hope he's doing well.
I know he's a great seller so I wasn't too worried. Just didn't know how else to get an update. Apologies for blasting it on the forum.
speedy recovery Don!

I am sure he will not be upset, any one who knows who he is will vouch for him. Not only is he a great seller, he is also one hell of a nice guy!
I did drop him a note, maybe he will get to you soon. I talked with Nate (his son) yesterday and he said his dad was doing great!

Don is a stand-up guy. I've purchased from him and he will make you right if you're not happy.

Spoke with Don earlier and we're all good. Bar will be here soon. 
Thanks all for the updates!

It is resolved...but I will still throw my endorsement in there.
I bought 3 kites from him and he did a great job with pics, communication and shipping.
Have no fear...

What an honor to have so many people say such great things about you. I'm glad so many know Don like I do. A true friend for sure.

Great, now I wanna buy a kite from tridude, just because he's so awesome. How am I going to explain this to the missus?!?!
