Anyone know what happened to him?

He got into a major car crash.

Really?

Who the fuck is Jackallen? Or Jack Allen, or whatever his fucking name is?

....easy man....

jack-allen was a cool guy who ran a lock-picking store and was also the go-to-guy for info on vending machines...he had many in his basement

He was a very helpful, innovative person.

He thought up several original scams and answered a lot of questions.

ya his scams stand as legends... ..but they were great

Does anyone know if his online store was a scam?

no it was not.. his store was not a scam

His store was a scam. His life is a scam.

To the above poster, please do not post such bullshit.

His store was NOT a scam, however since he got in a car crash, he was obviously not capable of working on shipping lockpicks out.

I had personally made 2 purchases from him and both went through very smoothly. His email communication was great, and shipping time wonderful. Also, his prices were unbeatable.

did he die from the car accident?

how do you guys know he was in a car crash if he doesn't post here anymore

Because they talked to him on email or mIRC or something.

That sucks, he was always so informative. If anyone talks to him, tell him I can't wait till he gets better, as I was looking forward to buying some lockpicks to learn picking.

The story used to be here: http://www.totse.com/bbs/Forum7/HTML/004093.html

but the link is 404.

Apparently, he got in a major car wreck and was hit by a drunk driver or something to that extent and he was in the hospital. Someone came on here with a newly registered account telling us the story and that he was trying to get into jackallen's system to fill orders. Nobody knows what's going on after that, though. I could've sworn I saw him post not too long ago but it was a fleeting 56k visit so I'm not sure. If anything knows more than this, then I'd be glad to hear it. I believe, although I never ordered from him, that his online store was not a scam.

Apparently he went into a coma. His prices really are better than anywhere, anytime, period. His prices (when on sale), were only slightly above wholesale, and in many cases half-off retail. Southord (distributor) was actually getting pissed off the prices were so low. Its a shame hes gone... Hopefully he'll be back soon.

*cries over Jack Allen*

That guy had some good shit going, did anyone from Canada actually do his quarter scam with him? Also his store was not a scam as far as I know. I actually bought picks from him BEFORE he made the store, went over the whole thing by e-mail, it took about 2 weeks longer then he said it would, but that was because he ran out of them and had to wait for more. Great prices to, i think it was like $60 for a set of 50 lock picks. something nice like that. Poor guy, but that post about him confused, did anyone figure out if he WAS the drunk driver in the accident?

Holy shit, how am i just finding all this out?

Jackallen was frickin awesome.
