Beware: Spides (resolved)

(this is my first time making a post so sorry if its wrong)

Edit: http://puu.sh/59ik7.png I got my money back, but sadly there are still people that have been waiting for their commission for 2 months, which is one of my friends. I really wouldn't recommend commissioning them in the future since they act so poorely when it comes to being proffessional with handling commissions...

Explain:

I commissioned him on the 20th of september to help him with college. I felt like I was doing a good deed to help him. A month later, I still do not see my commission so I send him a note, http://puu.sh/56f3a.png he replies with this http://puu.sh/56f2u.png. Yes, me and my friend (which was above me on the list) was having some trouble with our friendship but that does not excuse my commission since I paid for my own of my own character, he could of easily put theirs on hold and did mine so I didn't have to wait for 2 months just to recieve it. He then made a post on his tumblr saying this http://puu.sh/56eIz.png. that was on the 20th of october. It has been 12 days now and still no sign of my commission.

Today I sent him a new note, asking for a refund. He has yet to open the note, but I know he is online right now since he is posting on his tumblr. http://puu.sh/56fe9.png http://puu.sh/56ffh.png

he has been posting his own personal art through out this month, and has not even shown me wips of the bust commission I paid for.

The post says they were posting personal art. No communication + the artist posting a ton of personal stuff is usually a bad sign.

From what I can see they posted all of 5 quick drawings since their last 3 completed commissions.

As I said above, for this circumstance, I guess I feel like that if the time was an issue it would have been worth talking to the artist about it first rather than posting a beware on a 1 month wait, especially since it seems the artist was not ignoring the commissioner at all and was quick to respond to anything they had to ask.

they told me they would get it done on the weekends, this was at 20th of october when I noted them about my commission. They still didn't finish the work and left me to wait longer.

I think anything that is to do with commissions and poor skills when it comes to them does deserve to be on A-B.

but then again its your opinion.

the fact that he also didn't tell me (and my friend) that he wasnt going to do our commissions because we was fighting is ridiculous because it's not his choice to decide rather or not he does or doesn't do something. Ok, he could of put my friends commission on hold since one of the pieces they asked for was of one of my characters, but that doesn't excuse my solo commission.
