    When l called Mr. ********************** once, I asked a question and had ********************* yell on the phone. It shook me up. I felt uneasy calling and stopped. The treatment from **** was abusive and l felt it was like walking on egg shells. Recently some MTH came in. It was shortly before XMas and l was leaving D.C. to visit family in CA. l asked ***** if l can pay for it and if they could ship January 3, ****. He said that's fine and asked me to add a note to PayPal. I again reminded him of the arrangement and asked them again to not ship the item. ***** emailed it was fine and again to leave a note on PayPal. So on Friday Dec 22 l went to pay. On PayPal l was trying to leave a note asking them not to ship until Jan 3. I had a technical issue with PayPal and the payment went through while trying to add the note. So l contacted ********************** saying the payment went through but the note was not added. The item was then shipped to DC.I was frustrated after all that was communicated. I expressed that frustration. ***** wanted me to open up an *** account to have it sent to a holding area. I thought this was ******'s responsibility. ***** said that l didn't follow instructions. I said that this became a sh*t show and more complicated than it actually is. And in an email that reminded me of his yelling on the phone **** called me a difficult customer, abusive, and canceled a couple of orders and banned me for life. This store is abusive. Authoritarianism, narcissistic personality issues and controlling people. I believe ********************* is a walking domestic abuse situation waiting to explode one day. This is the first time in my 48 years that l have been banned from a business. Any business. My advice is for **** to seek mental health counseling as l believe he has some deep psychological/anger issues. A lot of people have been banned from this store. Learn from them, learn from me. Maybe its time for the #Metoo movement to come to the hobby/train shop. Caveat emptor!

    This customer consistently placed thousands of dollars in orders, but doesn't have the resources to complete the orders, causing ** cancelations and significant losses. We have suggested he do business elsewhere. He didn't like that.
