For me the thread closes when :

a) Cor either has a steel in his living room,
and/or on consignment in his neigborhood

b) He has the cash in hand of what
HE put out in HIS currency.
If he sent 4,000 euros to get a $4,500 steel.
That's what he should receive back.

But if getting $4,500 in cash sent over gives him only 3,461.53€...
If bought at 1 to 1 exchange rate, [guessing at time frame rate]
It is now 1.3 to 1 so guestimating ( $4,500 / 130 = 34.6153€ x 100 ) 3,461.53€

If the delay in refund since he requested it,
or not getting the steel period was caused by the company and not Cor,
then that is an unfair loss for him.

I know the $ exchange rate has tanked since he paid for the steel in full,
I am sure it is much worse than when he asked for the refund.
though the exact amount difference I don't know.

But the time period above matches the worst fall in the diollar in 15 years.

He is better off getting the steel to sell over here.
(Since that is more likely than Ron Lashley ever paying in relation to the exchange rate.)

When that happens close the thread...

but only AFTER it is bird in hand.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by David L. Donald on 14 November 2004 at 11:52 AM.]</p></FONT>

I would say that to get excited would be, well, premature. Cor will let us know what comes next.

As of now, it is not likely that they will be in Dallas for the show, IMHO!!! IF by chance they are, it would be a good thing for several of those who are interested in this post to ask them face to face what they are doing about solving Cor's problem.
Either get his steel built or get his money back to him.

Old western movie (with "cowboys & indians"):
It's late at night. Two cowboys sitting around the campfire, wondering what's out in the darkness.

Cowboy #1: It sure is quiet out there.

Cowboy #2: Yep. A little too quiet.

Cor is giving the Emmons Co. another chance to do the right thing. Jim C. had it right... patience is a virtue.

Let's hope it pays off for Cor.

Meanwhile, it's nice of you guys to keep Cor's issue in the forefront. Image

Has anybody else thought about this -- it should really have been "Portnoy's Problem" and "Cor's Complaint" rather than the way it really is, don't you think? It sounds better that way. Image
