You're too good of a person to have to deal with this, Mike. That is most definitely for sure.
I guess, I am used to people failing in terms of honestly, dignity, respect, willingness, friendship, and whatever values makes a human being, Max.
It was my fault from the start getting too excited and getting orders together, I sold quite some gear.
Let's hope, it will turn out good for all of us.
Yes!
Why can't Bernie look through his inventory and make a schedule/set an order and post the list? At least you would know where you stood in line.
I guess it makes more sense to him to complete 1 random guitar every 2 years...

Agreed it won't happen, but it damned well should, or some other sincere offering. I read a quote a few days back from a small business owner:
"The old-school model still really works: have passion for your product; care about your customers; have absolute integrity. That's still good business,"

Health care expenses, be they physical or mental, are not cheap. I'd be willing to bet that if he ceases to have all money come in he won't have money to finish many of the guitars that need to be finished.

I just saw a Mark Twain quote that is oh so fitting:
"It is easier to fool people than convince people that they have been fooled."

That doesn't necessarily mean it's the wrong way to approach this.

Keep in mind, the longer he strings you along, the closer it gets to a statute of limitations expiration.
When the SOL expires, you are generally SOL.*
Just a little something to think about.

He should be calling you, on HIS dime.
Well, I hope you tell him you expect absolute perfection, no BS and free shipping for all the hassle.
KEEP US POSTED!!!!

Well, he should he has been avoiding to talk to me straight the last 1 and a half weeks. So I will tell him, exactly what I want and I won't let him try to make me feel bad or anything for his situation and demand what he owes me!!

So "talked" with Bernie last night.
After a couple of emails back and forth we finally arranged what time to call him, I called him 2 times the first one I couldn't hear him and then I called again. We talked for 2-3 min max, saying how much he is trying the past 5 months, he understands how everyone's frustrated about the situation, especially about my situation since, how hard I have been trying to reach him, that I have invested so much money and the usual same things over and over.
When we were talking his phone had bad reception so the line went off. So I was calling back again and again but the automated voice mail system was coming up all the time.
I sent him a few emails and messages asking what's up, why the line went off, my messages where not getting delivered to his phone since it was turned off or had no service I suppose. I tried calling around 40 times, still mailbox, I gave up since it was around 3am here and I had a long day so needed to sleep.
Funny thing is, when I woke up like 2 hours ago, my messages were delivered but no word (email or text) from Bernie explaining why the phone went off or whatever.
I guess, we will have a Round 2 tonight of trying to have some successful communication with Bernie and FINALLY get an update or something!!
P.S Thank you, Bernie for actually confirming my frustration. I apologise for the whining guys.
Finally, Grats man!!!

I don't understand why it's your responsibility to contact him. Shouldn't he be bending over backwards to contact you and make it right?
Seriously Mike, it's time for legal action.

This ^. You're in a foreign country to him. You're not going to show up on his doorstep. You're being overly reasonable here.
He has no reason to ship anything since you're continuously just willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and "one more try". Sorry to say you won't see anything - money or guitar - unless you sue his backside.
The above came out slightly harsher than I meant - nothing personal, but BRJ is using your good nature against you.
