MAKER:http://www.geo-hikingstick.com/ The web pages says it will take 3-6 MONTHS to recieve a order. I wouldn't have waited even that long. The owner didn't use a Proxy to register his web site so his personal information is easy to get. (When will people learn and just pay the extra couple of bucks) I'll e-mail you his home phone number and address. After that, you're on your own. Edit: The guy hasn't even logged into his account since July El Diablo Edited October 23, 2008 by WatchDog2020 Quote Link to comment
Dinoprophet Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I've always known him to be an upstanding guy who bends over backward for his customers. The fact that he hasn't logged in for so long concerns me a bit. Quote Link to comment

The fact that he hasn't logged in for so long concerns me a bit. I would agree, that is a concern. He hasn't posted here since then either. Hope he is OK. Quote Link to comment
+ZSandmann Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Thirded, I have had such positive experiences with El_D that to hear no one has heard from him since July worries me greatly. He has always be totally supportive and kind in his forum posts, emails, and in chat when I was asking him tips on how to make my own staff. He also used to run Today's Cacher, the first geocaching magazine. Quote Link to comment
rogheff Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 There was a similar thread a while back. Seven months is entirely too long. Something must've happened. Hope he didn't stop carving. Quote Link to comment
+TheAlabamaRambler Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I hope he's ok, Jerry's a super guy. I haven't talked to him in a couple of months though and this thread prompted me to call him. Got an answering machine and left a message. I will update this thread when I hear back from him.

+StarBrand Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Thanks TAR. I have one of the those VERY fine staffs made for me in early 2003. I still use it regularly. One of the photos on his web site has some folks at one of my caches. I hope all is well..... Quote Link to comment
Skippermark Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 El Diablo is a veteran cacher from the early days and has written many forum posts. I never met him personally, but he seemed to be a stand-up guy. I hope all is well. Quote Link to comment
+lock1uk Posted October 23, 2008 Author Share Posted October 23, 2008 thank for letting me know that he is a sound guy there must be some thing up with him as most of you have said. ill just wait out and see whats up. thanks lock1uk Quote Link to comment
+Rockin Roddy Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I hope all is well with Jerry! Will keep watch to see how this progresses! I sure hope he's OK, haven't talked to him since May. Quote Link to comment
Chumpo Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 My daughter is out $115 for one she ordered for me in April, so no, you are not alone. I have heard nothing but nice things about Jerry, so something must be wrong. For him to not return any calls or emails is totally out of character. I sure hope he's ok. The money lost is something we can absorb. Quote Link to comment
+KJcachers Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 anybody on here know where he lives and is close enough to pay him a visit and make sure he is okay? I have seen this 3 times lately on other boards and 2 of them were bad news and 1 was a guy who ended up spending some time in the slammer. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 The fact that he was a regular here and hasn't logged on in a long time has me concerned. He was always quick to respond to threads like this one, but this and an earlier thread on the same subject went unanswered and that adds to my concern. I was going to look for his phone number and give him a call, but I see TAR already has that covered. It's not like he was making so much from the sticks that he just pocketed the money and left for Cuba. Quote Link to comment
+lock1uk Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 [has any one found out any thing about jerry and where he went and i see the web site is down now as well??????????????????????? Quote Link to comment
