"I recently had a bad encounter with Dave ***, the owner &/or manager of Gooch's Hobbies in WinnipegBefore this I had known him for years and had been treated properly by him and his staffWhen my regular hobby shop, which was closer to me, closed down, I had to find one to replace it and Gooch's was the next closest Last year I took a diecast model to him to sell on consignmentIt sold, he phoned me and I came over and got my moneyThen later I brought him plastic models: kits and a RTR locomotiveIn May this year I spent over $on supplies but my models still hadn't soldWhen I checked back in OctI gave him complete descriptions of all models, and he said he could only find two of them and had no record of any of themSo I told him that since: he hadn't made a list of them, he hadn't given me a receipt for them and I had entrusted them to his care, he owed me a fair and reasonable price for the that were missingSince all had sold for over $each when new, I asked him for $each less his commission of $He then told me that since his father, [redacted] ***, handled the expenses, he would have to ask him for permissionWhen I called him back (he never would call me back) he again told me that he didn't have proof of their existence so he wouldn't pay me for them So I told him that I was very honest, had done nothing wrong, and since he had forgotten to record them he was responsible for reimbursing meHe asked if I would take $cash for them and I agreed if he would agree to mailing them to save me a long drive overHe refused but said he would drop them off after work one dayWhen the day finally came nearly weeks later, my door bell didn't work and I couldn't hear him knocking so he left, even though my neighbor offered to give them to meHe refused because he wanted my signature So last week I drove over there and picked up the remaining models and the $When I asked him what he thought I had done to deserve the shoddy treatment he had given me, he just said " I'm sorryWhat happened happened." So I told him I would try to make sure that every modeler in Wpgwould know how he treated me."
