| 2 Years ago I made a deal with Drake Elliot. I would design a graphic and he would make a deck for me with that graphic. Simple deal isn't it? I sent him the 40$ , and I started designing the graphics.
Outcome: He really liked them, He even wanted to use one. Sure , I said . He promised to make me 3 decks ( in trade so He can use my graphic). So I agreed. He brought out the Graphic , had a couple sales but I had no decks? .. It took me 6 months to rechieve the first 2 decks. which where both blemish decks ( shitty laquer , no craftmanship)... He gave as excuse that he is in a shit situation and stuff. of course I understood that I even gave him time like another year.. Now he isn't even responding to me anymore.
So.. doesn't feel right for me to say it, but it is the truth Drake is Shady.. I mean , I really understand from the botttom of my heart that he has been in shit situations and not able to make decks.. but He's still posting sale pictures on instagram. But when it comes to "atleast responding " to my messages . You just seem shady AF And just to mention I do not message him once a day , not once a week, but like once in 3months..
If you don't believe me , I can post screenshots
have a nice day y'all |

| i heard good things about drake in the past, but i also heard a lot of bad things about him an that just shouldnt happen, so i never felt the need to add one of his decks too my collection, shame shit like this happens, but there are way more positive people in the scene than negative ones |

| "hahah So on Fingerboardhq the Emanant Hate Central site theres a thread saying that Im shady and sketchy... Because I sent someone 2 decks in exchange for a graphic and didn't get him his 3rd deck.... Because at the time I went homeless and just started making decks again this month its been since February... WTF? That site was made by a poser noob who hated me from the gates, which is the reason my logo was never on the top bar.... So lame.... And all the sketchy stuff you hear about me is from the person who stole money from me trying to cover his actions up by badmouthing me! haha really bummed to hear Eddie Sharples say he never got a deck from me because he heard sketchy things about me that aren't true? Please illiterate?"
This is his facebook status. I think he meant to say elaborate instead of illiterate at the end. Lol
When I rode for EMNT I was told I'd have more decks than I received. Drake didn't like that I'd asked for a second deck after a few months and kicked me from the team. |

| In this thread Eddie Victory isn't Eddie Sharples... So if you read this Drake, then you can bear that in mind |

| Decks were sent and received. I didnt like the quality. Said I would MAKE MORE. Took longer than expected. He got improved decks long ago and never posted about that. Such a negative thread for no reason.

| As I mentioned, Eddie Victory isn't Eddie Sharples.
You should write a book though. Sounds like you've had a pretty interesting (if not slightly tragic) life so far.
Good luck for the future Drake. |

You are simply lying, Ive never done business with you. Unless you are one of the kids who's parents disputed me during Christmas last year then I apologize for your parents being morons and not reading the description of "2-3 weeks for delivery".
YOU ARE THE LIAR! I am a 37 year old man, my parents don't buy me fb shit! lol... you are too funny man... I made a thread like this about you a few months back. After you told everyone that you will be taking care of this and sending me a new deck, you sent me a PM asking me to remove the thread, and I did. NEVER GOT A DECK! "Listen, you got a deck. At this point I'm sorry. Even if I explained what I been threw in the past 4 months it doesn't matter. I have warrants. I'm about surviving, eating, and not ending up in jail. I've been homeless. Sorry the finish on your decks not perfect I'm sure it performs amazing. I'm in more deck debt than fine debt almost. Mad or not it's real skatelife. "
"Did you want a exotic Palm tree deck for the replacement and an exotic deck? Or what was it you were thinking? I think that'd look sick. "
Maybe you remember sending me these? I suggest you start making better life choices, you can only burn so many bridges before you become trapped. Your poor decision making seems to be the common denominator! @meekin nothing was cleared up. Drake is a liar, and a toxic member to the community. |

| Damn,I wish I could like posts on here.
I called Drake on his idiocy yesterday on facebook and he responded by telling me to get fucked and then immediately blocking me so I couldn't respond. All his so called dramas have played out on facebook and he seems to think he has had a hard life and he deserves everyone to pat him on the back for his resounding fortitude. Truth is he has made some shit decisions and for that he got screwed for a massive 4 months,what a joke. Now he is all poor me,poor me I have been so hard done by. You want to talk about hard times unblock me and send me a message on facebook and I will blow your fucking mind. You write ridiculous posts about anyone who dares to say negative things about you and I have even read posts from you where you say negative things about customers that haven't said anything bad about you. You are like a spoilt child and you need to grow up. |
