I posted this in the meet thread, but I thought it was worth mentioning here in case someone missed it.

Just one thing that's worth mentioning to those going to the fair, if you encounter a stall-holder called Michael Pilak, be extremely careful when dealing with him.

At the November fair last year, which is the most recent one I've been to, I bought a supposedly mint in box Skyquake from him.

No sooner had I got it back to my girlfriend's place in Canberra that I discovered that the launcher was snapped off at the post, it was missing missiles and one of the rear landing gears was broken.

When I got hold of his details a day later and spoke to him about it (including supplying photos of the damage to him), he demanded I take store credit and refused to issue a refund. It was only when I spoke to Glenn (the fair organiser) about it and he told Micheal he was to give me a refund (he apparently was very reluctant to do so), that he complied.

I'm not saying to avoid him entirely, just be EXTREMELY careful if you are dealing with him and be prepared to go above him if there is a problem.
