I have a story to share about my experiances with Corey.
About two years ago, when I first bought vBulletin, Corey and I agreed that he would make me a skin, and install it for vB2 for $50 dollars. I know this is cheap and he usually charges more, but we both agreed to this price.

This was back in September 2001.

I would send him an AIM msg about every week asking him how progress is, and he would ignore me most of the time, or say it's fine.

November 2001, I get an email. It's a .jpg of the forumhome skinned, and it looked pretty snazzy. I asked him when he was going to install it, and he told me he was too busy and I should slice the image and install it myself.

The problem with this:

a) I only had the forumhome skinned
b) I had no buttons
c) I didn't pay 50 bucks for a .jpg, I paid 50 bucks for a skin

So basically, I got ripped off.
I am not trying to flame anyone in this. I am just sharing my experiance with Corey.
