AVOID! - A1Gloverepair - Gordon King

[earlywynnfan]

Mark, you were logged on earlier when I read this, and I see you are logged in now. Do you disagree with King's statements? You started this, make it right, either back up what you said or admit you were wrong.

OT
One positive is guaranteed to come out of this for Gordon the glove restorer.
I called him this morning after reading this thread and plan to have him do a minor restringing restoration project to the webbing of a 1939 D & M Johnny Vander Meer model glove that I acquired a year ago.
I'll give him my business

I spoke with Gordon yesterday when I was alerted to this thread. He seems like a very good guy and definitely a person I would give my business to. Very ethical and methodical.

Mark, on the other hand, seems to have some anger or impatience issues. Sometimes I suffer from the latter too but I don't report people for it or go bat ass crazy.

Scott, that's a nice glove. Leather still looks good after 80 years. My '65 Rawlings Wally Bunker isn't in nearly that good condition. This thread has prompted me to finally send it in for a refurb. Been meaning to do it for a long time.

Tough enough to be an entrepreneur and small business owner in this day and age without irrational customers trying to ruin your business.

That is one sweet glove!

I see that Mark (whom I dont know) has listed on his about me page as occupation (Therapist) Might want to do a little work on himself.... Just a thought...

This thread is going to end up being a good thing for Gordon's business. I know where I'm going with my next glove repair.

I was thinking the same thing. Gordon's place of business is only a few miles down the road from me. Wish him the best.

I was surprised to see this on the memorabilia side, getting the facts first and reaching out is always important before overstepping. I am hoping both parties work something out!

Keep collecting! Thanks Jimmy

That reminds me of an old SNL skit involving "Sean Connery" on the TV show Jeopardy...

A graduate of the Sam Kinison School of Therapy, no doubt.

As a therapist myself, I know first hand most therapists have just as many issues we can't control as the folks we see. It's easier to dispense wisdom to someone else in a controlled setting than to utilize that knowledge in our own personal lives. Sometimes too much self-actualization can do more harm than good...

That being said, all this guy has to do is apologize and its over. Maybe he was upset about the delay in his COMC order. Oh well, another topic for another session.

Perfect! Yeah, if the OP simply apologized and did the right thing we'd feel closure. The fact that he's aware of the responses and continues to ignore shows who he really is. I know it's not all NY'ers, but friggin NY!
