Clarence Mills aka Haida Guy Beware of Clarence Mills! Vancouver Nationwide

In November of 2014 I provided Clarence Mills with four ounces of gold and a sheet of silver -- about $7,000 in value -- so that he could make my store a 20kt gold bracelet and a sterling silver bracelet. The understanding at the time was that, upon completion, I would pay him $2,500.00 for the gold bracelet, $1,500 for the silver bracelet, and $1,000 to finish a silver casting that he had designed many years ago.

About November of 2015 the gold and silver had disappeared and Clarence had no money so I offered to provide the gold and silver again if he would complete the three projects in my company's goldsmithing workshop. In late November, early December of 2015 he started the projects. He almost completed the gold bracelet and also started the silver casting but never finished either. For the silver bracelet all he had to show was his drawing of the design and that was it.

The last time I saw Clarence was in late December of 2015. We exchanged several e-mails, the last contact from him arriving on April 13, 2016. He has not responded to anything since. He has made many promises to show up and complete the projects, and provided many excuses about why he couldn't come in.

For your sake, do not give Clarence Mills (aka the Haida Guy) anything of value. He is totally irresponsible and unreliable.
