Please pass this on to other tattooists

I ordered a tattoo kit for our apprentice over 2 months ago along with 3 boxes of needles from OZTATZ. After constant phone calls and emails most of which weren't answered the kit finally arrived, instead of 2 machines we only received 1 and it is used!!!!!! We still haven't received the needles and they won't answer the phone or return my messages, my numbers are now barred from his phone!. Do not order from these guys they are nothing but con artists. Only a sicko would rip off an apprentice, everyone knows they earn nothing! Please pass this on to any studio or artist you know because we're not the only ones this has happened to.
Also if anyone knows their address please let me know.

Thanks
chantale

Easier said than done, there's no address for these guys, so I can't return the stuff and I can't get hold of them they won't answer my calls or return my messages. Thats why I'm hoping someone out there might know there address so I can send some friends to see them! All I know is there somewhere in Mildura South Victoria.

I can't see how you would order form somewhere that doesn't have an address?

Sucks just the same though. Sorry to hear that you got screwed.

I have only two reliable folks I deal with because i've gotten to know them,..and we've established a good working relationship.

newyorktattoo.com

tattooequipment.com

new york is slow on the shipping,...but otherwise o.k. to deal with.
tattooequipment.com I like their needles and tubes,..but their shipping fees kinda steep.

I live in is area and have never heard of them. And I can tell you it can't be run by a gang af bikers as there isn't a bikers club here.
But we have had a new shop open up close to a year ago and they don't care what age the people are that they tattoo. So it could very well be coming from this mob. They run their tattoo shop out of 8th Street. This may or may not help. And these could very well not be involved either. But I know they will never lay a needle on me.

Chantale, if you check our website, we have an address and a new phone number that is contactable.
Your apprentice paid $200 for a kit. In this kit we actually sent you a machine worth 200 on its own plus the other stock. And we can guarantee that machine has never been used. It has been run as testing on the coils and thats it. We built that machine so we know. Selling used machines is not what we do. You can call me anytime day or night. My numbers are all on the site.
As for ripping people off, thanks, but we dont do that.
Cheers Evil or Very Mad

Thanks lnk king sorry to be strict but if we dont stop rows very quickly everything soon gets nasty.And just a little tip dont get fighting it really isnt worth it over a machine mate. There are more important things in life. Thanks again for your co-operation. Good luck mate.
