I sent e-mails every 2 weeks or so. Christine hasn't replied since Jan. 15th. We've been ripped off.
Given that the Orb have apparently ripped off more than one of your fellow Orbonauts (we can't possibly be the only two), I'd like to hear one good reason why I should continue to support this band. Apparently, Alex & co. believe that they don't have any obligations towards us, and can just blithely walk away with our money, and expect us to sit there and accept it. I'm in the US, so I can't sue them, and it's been too long since the failed orders for me to reverse the credit card charges. I'm hoping that some people on this list, who are in contact with the band, can pressure them to step up and do the right thing, and refund the money we spent in good faith on Badorb products. If not, I think that we should boycott the band. Think about it: If a friend of yours was ripping people off, would you continue to be that person's friend? If a business you knew was taking money from your friends and not providing the services or products advertised, would you continue to support it? Why is Dr. Alex any different? Why should we let the Orb take advantage of their fans and get away with it? I don't think we should. -- Adam J Weitzman - voxpop arbitrageur
