    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Congratulations! This is great news, and it answers one question that I have been curious about - Paypal refunded your money, even though Mark did not have sufficient funds in his Paypal account to cover it. That adds a little hope for everyone involved. I'm really hoping that we'll continue...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Here's how I went about it: My order was what I consider to be the worst case scenario - I paid up up front, in full, through Paypal with a instant bank withdrawal. I am not positive, but I believe that would make me ineligible for a credit card chargeback. Trust me, I was going to try and...

    I think this is crucial - be firm, yet polite and kind. I think this approach is a big part of getting the desired result.

    Scot - Thanks to you and the other mods for keeping this thread open. For those of us who have been affected by this situation, this thread has been the only place for us to gather and get updates and news. And, because of this thread, I am able to announce that Paypal refunded my...

    Quick question - I have a credit card linked to my Paypal account, but my Paypal payments were done as instant withdrawals from my bank - does that mean that I cannot get a chargeback through my credit card company?

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    The forums aren't really a good, established way for a company to communicate with a large number of diverse customers. While I'm sure many of the people affected are members here or at another forum, many are not. The only effective way to contact all the customers would be to call or e-mail...

    Davo - My bank claimed they were not even able to do a chargeback after 90 days. Could you tell me the process you went through to get them to relent?

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    I have to say, I don't really get the public statement myself. It reads like a carefully worded statement that was meant to give a false sense of security. I mean, it essentially says that Aero Scotland will take over fulfilling his outstanding orders, and everything will go smoothly. How...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    I know we're all angry, but I would entreat everyone to temper our responses towards Holly, Ken, and Aero Scotland. Things may not be perfect, but they are here, and they are actively working to help those of us who have been wronged. I seriously doubt that most companies would be here...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    I think the point that the lawyers among us are trying to make is that Mark has not been formally brought up on any charges, and even if he was, he is presumed innocent until proven guilty in court. At this stage, what we have are allegations. Remember, regardless of how much evidence there...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I sent the following info to Marineabilly for his blog, and I thought it might be good to post it here as well. There is a new contender in the high end Engineer boot market, and I'm really looking forward to receiving my pair. I'l be honest - I probably sound like a shill in this post, but...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Holly - I am not faulting Amanda at all - I only brought her up to show that both parties felt it best that I deal exclusively through Mark. I think her response was absolutely correct. I am simply pointing out my reasoning for nver contacting you at Aero Scotland to check up on my...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    This is one of the best posts I have seen in this long, depressing thread. It seems to be the best rationalization for the current situation. My only counterpoint is that there were people who had been waiting too long already that were still being strung along. When it's been a year...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    It was just my opinion that your statement came off harsh. I must have read you wrong, and you have my apologies. It sounds crazy, but if you had worked with Mark before, you would never have believed that he would ever do something like this. I purchased my first Aero through him, and...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Wait times of up to a year were not uncommon with Aero Leather USA, and no that I'm aware of had ever been stiffed before. I'm not sure it's intentional, but your tone is coming off condescending. My apologies if I am incorrect in that assumption.

    List of Those Owed Funds for Jacket Orders Placed With Mark Moye - Aero USA

    January 2010, paid in full for a Cafe Racer.

    Schott Jacket Cafe Racer(restoration Hardware)

    I think the only cool thing is that with no lining, the jacket is pretty bulletproof. In a leather jacket, the lining is generally the first component to fail. That said, it would have to be a killer deal for me to buy an unlined leather jacket. I love this jacket, but I think the lack of a...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    I hate to say it, but think we're beyond bad vibes and such here. I had a great experience with Mark in the past as well. However, regardless of any of our past experiences, the facts are clear. Mark Moye took money from a significant number of customers, never placed the orders with the...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Hey all, I wasn't planning on posting in this thread yet, but I think I can add to the discussion. To be fair, I made my first Aero order through Mark Moye. I made the order in November 2009, and received my jacket in May 2010. During that span of time, Mark answered nearly 50 emails in a...

    Vanson Enfield vs Aero Ace Cafe

    I own both a Vanson Enfiled and an Aero Ace Cafe "Ace" Halfbelt. They are both fantastic jackets, and these are my observations: Fit - The Aero will be fitted to your measurements - mine fits very nicely, and looks great on. It has room for a sweater, and think this is the nature of the...
