Aug. 2013 I ordered and paid $153.00 for a pair of custom painted Converse from Amador Molina's Etsy shop Noahs Art Customs. We communicated with messages back and forth through Etsy. He let me know he was excited to work on the shoes, made sure he knew exactly how I wanted them to look, and let me know it would be a few weeks before I would get them.
Knowing the shoes were hand painted, I patiently waited. After not hearing anything for 3 weeks I tried to message him again and again but never got a response. I had a phone number for him so I called and he answered. He told me that he had finished and sent my shoes but they were delivered to the wrong address. He said he would make me another pair and send them out in about a week.
I never got the shoes and now he would not answer my calls. I tried calling from another number and he answered. Now he is telling me he will just send me a refund through Paypal (paypal is how I originally paid him). The refund was never sent.
I waited too long and was not able to get my money back through Paypal but I was able to get his Esty shop shut down. I have seen that he is still selling shoes online and it makes me sick. I hope that people do their research and don't become another one of his victims like me.
I ordered and prepaid for a pair of custom shoes from Noah's Art, the shop on Etsy. He let me know he was excited about working on them and that it would take 2 to 3 weeks. He would respond to my messages at first and then I did not hear from him for well over 3 weeks and still had not received the shoes. I called his number listed on his Etsy site and he actually answered. He told me that he had made my shoes but they were delivered to the wrong address. He said he was going to make another pair and I would have them in about a week. After waiting two weeks I called again but he would not answer. I called from another number and he answered, now telling me he would send me a refund through Paypal. The refund never came. August 2014 will be a year since I made the mistake of trusting this shop. I was able to get his Etsy shop shut down, just wish there was more I could do. This guy is a lier and thief and will, unfortunately for him, pay for his sins in the long run.
Amador Molina promised us our custom art shoes would be ready within two weeks since we were a local customer. 7 months later, we have not received the shoes or a refund. He communicates with us, but everything he says is just a lie. He never keeps his word. First he was too busy to get the shoes to us. Then we asked him to ship them. He said they were returned to him. He never even provided proof that he even completed these shoes.
Then he agreed to refund our money. First, he said he would do it through paypal. For several weeks he gave us a run-around. When his paypal account was finally ""working"", he now said he wanted to use Moneygram. my husband agreed and gave him the info he needed. A few days later my husband asked if he had the info for us to receive our refund. Amador then said he never got a ""reply"".
I paid $140 for some custom shoes. I paid cash for them cause he was a friend. He said he would have them no later then a month. It's three months now and he has blocked me from his Facebook and now he don't answer my calls or text messages. He is from Victoria Texas and now moved to California. I felt sorry for the guy that's why I did business with him. Look, the kid is a ripoff, don't buy anything from this guy. He burned his friend, he will burn anyone.

He stole $180 from us.
