******* - Stoked firewood

I have ordered previously from Paul Gilpin who owns Stoked and provides firewood in the Cape Town area. While there were delays it did eventually arrive, this time however was a different story. Paul contacted me as he was getting wood in for winter and I had to pay a deposit, this was on the 7th of Feb. A couple of weeks later he contacted me asking for money as he was on his way back from collecting a load of wood and had run out of fuel which I paid. Early in March (still no wood delivered) he contacted me again for payment of the remainder as he needed bakkie repairs to make the delivery. Against my better judgment I made the final payment for a total of R900. Since then he has just stopped responding to me and has taken his adverts online. He does not respond to messages or calls.
