I'm not saying that he rips people off - he doesn't [unless you count time wasted]. What I'm saying is that you aren't the only one that has had this happen to them by Mike. I've heard at least 3 other stories of the same incident happening with him - the harness is lost, stolen, lost in the mail - it basically doesn't get done, and doesn't get to the consumer, and a full refund is issued. I don't know if he gets caught up with other projects, is too busy with work or life, or whatever else could be happening, but maybe he should work hard to keep a couple spares on hand - he could make a bit of cash off these harnesses; people who can't do them on their own want them, and some people don't want to wait for shipping between the US and Netherlands [though I've heard you will get your harness faster from Arnout than you will from Mike].
