Laughed so hard I nearly fell out of my chair this afternoon after hanging up with a good prop manufacturer who exhibits at Transworld. All names are withheld to protect the innocent.
Anyway; I bought a used prop from a haunter. Still waiting for controller for it. It is a prop that the year it debuted at Transworld everyone loved it. This individual delivered stuff to me 6 weeks ago. But 4 items were missing from shipment. One of those items was actually part of 2014's purchase from them that never shipped. In 2014 I bought airbag system...got the fans but never got the bags. So I have been waiting for the controller and video player for 6 weeks. "It is coming...you will get it". I expect you will see my idea of how to use with the waist high airbags "swamp room style" on show floor of Transworld next year. Just wished I could have actually used my idea before everyone else went nuts over the idea. Maybe I'll get my airbags for 2016...or 2017 after everyone else installs my idea into their haunt.
Well after running 2 weeks without this other prop I called the prop maker directly to see if they could send me the controller I need. Gave them the details of who I bought it from (so they could verify they had sold one to the guy) and why I needed them to ship me the controller and video. The funny thing is...the same guy is unhappy with them because they can not get a prop to him within days of prop being paid for last week. I'm waiting 2 years for my stuff...and they are unhappy now. Told them to charge my parts to the guys account.
Us haunters are one screwed up bunch.
