This is my first time posting here, and fatkraken expressed interest in there being a general Avsun post, and having other customers post their experiences in the comments, whether they be good or bad experiences. If this is not allowed, I'm sorry :C
The OTHER Avsun post: artists-beware.livejournal.com/447483.html
WHO: Avsun Mascots
WHERE: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/avsun
WHAT: A body suit for an existing partial of my character. Concept art: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4856848/
WHEN: I first contacted Avsun for a quote late November, 2010. Contact was fairly consistent at first, and they were extremely friendly. I was quoted at $665 for a bodysuit, and sent the downpayment of 30% in early December. A duct tape dummy was made and sent out as well. The last actual email I received from them was 4 days after I sent the payment. In the beginning of February, I got a mass email sent out to their customers explaining they were sick. I've sent them several emails since, asking if they've received my duct tape dummy, and asking other simple questions. I have not received a response since mid December.
PROOF: The first contact email:
Payment sent:
Last personal contact I had with them:
Mass explanation email from Avsun:
Email sent today from Avsun, undoubtedly after seeing these a_b posts:
If any additional proof is needed let me know.
EXPLAIN: Usually, for me, this situation would not yet be bad enough to make a post here about it. However, after seeing the previous post about them HERE I became very worried. Fatkraken wanted to have one big post where other people can post their stories about Avsun, good, bad, or ugly.
After seeing the other post, I really don't think I will be seeing my $200 or suit from them. I don't quite know what to do.
Like I said at the top, I've never posted to artists_beware before, so I apologize if something is off or wrong :(
EDIT: Here is their pathetic excuse for a twitter, looks like it was made the same time the other post about them was made here on artists_beware. I think its a coverup saying LOOK WE ARE DOING WORK. But there are no pictures or evidence of any kind that anything is actually being done. http://twitter.com/#!/Avsun_Studios
EDIT 2: Added the most recent email to the screenshots and fixed the blurring.

Date: 2011-04-21 07:02 pm (UTC)Verbal contracts can be considered legal contracts; however, in this case it's even beyond verbal and is written (in the form of the email.)
Sounds like they are just throwing words at you to make you feel like you can't do anything about it. Cancelling your order on their own accord, keeping your deposit, and giving you nothing would be contract violations on their part, as I understand it.
