Did you ever check your receipt ? He charged you for that banner.

He gives receipts ?

The thread that keeps on giving...

Inside the demise of M Street Pizza

I'd heard that something fishy went on here (no surprise), but didn't know the details the DO dug up.

Good God. How has this clown not pissed off the wrong person yet?

You know a thread exerts a powerful field of gravity when it can draw the legendary OOT out of hiding. Welcome back and hope all's well, amigo.

More of a lurker these days. Try to add a bit on the lacrosse board, but normally not a ton of time to post on others. Merry Christmas.

This thread literally made me not spend any money at ShirtWorld’s booth at the NY State Fair.
What businesses does he own on Marshall Street so I can avoid them?

Jacobs was a replacement player for the Eagles during the 1987 strike season. I will donate $25 to Jim and Juli foundation in anyone's name who gets a video of them calling Jacobs a scab.

May drive up there tomorrow to do that.

Go for it. We could call it "The Syracusefan Jim and Juli Foundation Challenge". Go viral and raise lots of money for a good cause.

I thought we'd make 200 posts easy before someone said something nice about him - actually I thought we would make 1000. Good thing I didn't place that bet.

I vaguely recall he has a relative (son?) who posts here.

Channel 9 just ran a story on both our teams’ early exit from March madness and how it impacts local businesses. Who do they interview? Dave Jacobs. I’m surprised he didn’t offer the reporter a BOGO offer!

This is the thread we need right now. Come one. Come all.

Would you like the receipt in the bag, or can we toss it out?

Don't worry those shirts will be free next fall with a purchase of a great deal off the mystery price rack.

Yessssssss

No March Madness SU businesses

Or, “sorry, the receipt printer is down.”

 

[HakAttack]

I opened this thread hoping someone had given an update that Shirt World had gone out of business. No such luck.

 

[NateW]

We’ll email you the receipt... we still have ur email from when u bought your ‘96 Meadowlands Final Four shirt.

Ur email is still CuseFan1@AOL.com right?

I was so pumped when I saw this thread bumped on the basketball board

This article about Dave Jacobs is crazy. I had a feeling that he owned a bunch of Marshall Street buildings. The guy is a lunatic (of course everyone knew that already).

Money Quote. This is all you need to know about Dave Jacobs:

They said Jacobs, who had been running Shirt World for more than two decades, did not set up employee applications or exit interviews, adding that he rarely kept receipts or used the corporate credit card.
“He said that we were more corporate America, and he was more mom-and-pop,” Smith said.

Or maybe you'd just call him a thief. I would.

 

[cuse2now]

Ah yes. Had biz dealings with Dave Jacobs years ago. Got smart and walked away based on my instincts. The guy is an absolute nut. A few people I know joke and call him “tax free Dave”

I had a lawsuit on behalf of one of his tenants against Jacobs.
His lawyer quoted in the article, Peter Hobaica from Utica, is likewise a POS. He had been negotiating a lease with the tenant who was trying to open a store in time for back-to-school. Hobaica puts the signature page of the lease in front of a lawyer friend of mine who has his tenant sign, but then Hobaica returns the first draft of the lease (very pro-landlord, of course) without including any of the changes they had already negotiated. Our lawsuit wound up a stalemate (just kind of faded away without going to trial), but I got my guy out of the lease without further loss and he opened up a store elsewhere instead, but not until after losing a year's worth of time trying to build up a new business with an insane, meddlesome landlord. What truly awful people.
