I received a PM from SnkLove stating that he would be willing to have the AES sent to me to as payback. Since the thing seems to be broken, I would be willing to take it if SnkLove would be willing to pay to have the thing shipped, repaired and moded with the new Unibios and Neobitz mods. SnkLove stated that the AES was worht roughly $100 in it's current condition. If he footed $200 of the bill to have the thing repaired and moded I'd be willing to pay for any additional charges.
Again, just trying to keep this all out in the open so that there is a permanent record of any and all retribution.
Bokemeow, can you again please explain why it is you are holding on to SnkLove's AES?

Well, since SnkLove sent you all that, I can tell you what transpired:
He was peddling his AES to trade for either NGPC, Xbox, Gamecube or PS2. I asked some questions regarding the AES, and he duly replied. So, figuring this transaction was a good opportunity to finally get the AES, we shook our hands on it, but I asked him to send first.
He sent the AES, but it arrived in a box padded by mere cellophane shopping bags. Not the best packing job I've ever seen, but there didn't seem to be any sound of dislodged transistors or resistors or anything else. SnkLove stopped by the chat room so I described to him that I just received it, but it has no A/V cable. I thought it best to check the condition of the AES anyways, seeing that there is a headphone jack, so I put in a Samurai Spirits, plug in the headphone, and power on. Buzzzz. Didn't seem to good. I asked him, "should there be any sound to come out of the AES even without an Video/Audio output?" To which he replies, "I don't know, I never tried [the headphone jack]." I asked him if he could send an A/V cable, and he says yes, he would, and is supposed to have sent it last Friday. After he logged off from chat, I looked into the cartridge slot: 1 missing copper contact. Not good.
So 36 hours pass. He says he has sent the A/V cable, did "u send NGPC stuff?" Then it was "Wat's going on???" He then created this thread, and then asked me to send the AES back, otherwise it is "u who is scamming me." I told him that 36 hours is way too short a time to be gripped with this irrational panic. We had shook hands on a trade, so it seems only fair that his merchandise is in working order that I send mine. Then this is what he replied to that:

zeidan12@hotmail.com am talkin wit insaneclown go on msn if u want.Litsen i went to insaneclown not u, i want my stuff , or either u send back my stuff cause am gonna be clean right now the system works but has a scrambled picture, i did not send the av cables btw.So send the aes back and controller or jus send my stuff and i can send you some loot on top of the aes, if you want maybe u can get it fixed from kenny boy .Am trying 2 get everything clear.Go on msn if you can instantly.Thx
So this is what SnkLove tried to pull on me:
1. Trade me a defective AES system for NGPC games and console.
2. Tried to coerce me to send them by claiming to send the AV cable, because I said if he sent the AV cable, I would send the NGPC stuff. It was afterwards I grew majorly suspicious.
3. Then he owns up that the AES system has a scrambled picture,
AND did not send the AV cable.
He wants the AES back so that he can, I presume, try to sell it off to some other patsy like he tried to do with me. Not gonna happen. The AES is a hostage until he straightens out everything he pulled on you guys.
