I was wondering if anyone has been stiffed by the author. I sent the money via PayPal a week and a half ago and I still have nothing to show for it. I have sent a few emails and have received no reply. I could see a couple days for a turnaround but this is getting ridiculous.

don't worry, no problem, it takes a while ...

Actually, this is a huge problem. If noone trust the ordering-mechanism, no sales are generated - and if no sales are generated, chances are development interests in the project are lost. Personally, I'd like to purchase a copy, but reports of poor sales-support has led me to believe I could waste a lot of time or money on it. Too bad, since I really hate ******** something I can afford (and want to purchase), simply because I can't trust the dealer.

Don't panic. I bought a licence and it was around 2-3 weeks before I had the licenced build. Martin is just slow to reply, but he WILL reply eventually.

I think he actually has a life and doesn't spend every waking moment connected to the internet (I heard he only has 56K dialup, dunno if this is true).

It is.

I got my license pretty quick, but it went to my spam folder in gmail and didn't see it. He did respond when I asked him about it, though it may have been like a week or so.

I don't care, paying customers should be taken seriously no matter how much of a "real life" or how bad an excuse (like poor internet connections) you have.

Same here. Seems that gmail hates Martin's mails :)

Mine was within a week when I ordered (after the paypal e-check completely cleared that is.)


I am currently supplying martin with whatever info possible, for the nintendo e-reader and that stuff. (I even supplied him the actual e-reader, all the cards that came with it, and a few printed homebrew demos.)

As always, check your spam folder.
