You aren't being entirely truthful with what happened.
You first PM'd me on the 18.4.2014 enquiring about a stock for a Rem 700 short action. I replied and told you it would be a 7-8 month wait (which would put me starting on 18.11.2014), to which you agreed to go on the waitlist.
You then PM'd on 3.6.14 asking how long it was now, to which I replied 4 months (which would put it 3.10.14)
You then pM'd on the 27.7.14 to which I replied you were 7th on the list.
You then PM'd again on the 13.9.14 asking how long. I noticed you had switched from wanting a Rem 700 SA to a Rem Model 7. I had just started a model 7 stock for another customer that day. I replied that I would start it the next weekend and we discussed how many layers of carbon fibre you wanted and what sort of recoil pad you wanted.
I started your stock the next weekend, 20.9.14 , nearly 2 months earlier than the 7-8 months i first quoted.

Then on the 12.10.14 you PM"d me
"Stu,

You obviously have far too many to do and are too stretched, have now given up on this and gone in a different direction,take me off your waiting list.

Andy."


to which I replied
"I'm not quite sure what you are on about Andy. As I stated in my last message to you on the 13th September I was going to start it the following weekend, which I did. I was going to get in touch with you today to say send your rifle out so I can bed it in and finish off the stock. But I see you tried to sell your rifle on the 21st September and it looks like you have sold it to Gibo yesterday."
