Scammed by NerdCables

Submitted by Riboflavin01 t3_10kl4n0 in MechanicalKeyboards

I ordered a cable back in June of 2021 to go along with the GMK Moonlight drop from NerdCables. Unfortunately it looks like I was scammed along with a bunch of other people. Originally Jonathan was replying to my email requests saying that the cable was delayed but still would be delivered but now he isn't responding at all. I see his most recent Reddit post is a sob story from 6 months ago but no refund requests are being honored. I tried contacting my bank/credit card but because the purchase is so old and he strung me along for so long they won't refund the charge. At this point I've accepted that I have to eat the cost on this, but what are some reputable cable companies I can order from that can create something similar and actually deliver?

Cablemods have some ready made ones on amazon, i guess you can buy one of those to see the quality.

Yeah, I’ve ordered a lot for nerdcables but when my custom never showed up I stopped. It’s too bad, I really liked their stuff.

This is what happens when you trust people who can't resist putting links to religious bollocks on a business website.

Honestly, the moonlight purchase I made was so long ago that I almost forgot about it. I checked the tracking information they provided me and while it worked before, now it just takes you to random ad pages. Not only did they try and take some quick money, now they're trying to expose people to malware! :)

Well I was on the fence but Cablemod made me a customer today. Though I didn't want to wait for the facility upgrades so just ordered from Amazon for now.

June 2021?

April here. Dude is a scammer. Still stealing money with his website. There should be a legal way to address this.
