 well, your samples are somewhat weathered by the fax or copymachine, it cannot be EXACTLY like the original font...and your last sample shows HELVETICA (or Arial) and not Univers.

 I'm trying to find something similar to the "tigers" font. Sorry for the cruddy sample, it's just a scan of a fax they sent me. If they can't get a better sample, anything close to this will work :) Thank you for any help!

Urbanfonts not only copied the Abstractfonts.com site concept but to make it look grown up it copied [part of] the forum too. Where I come from this is called theft of intelectual property. An economical delict with a maximum of 3 years in prison and fines up to € 250.000.
Sue the guy!
I've set a spider at the urbanfonts forum. Let's see what can be collected.

OK Kirk, here you go:
Bowell&beralta: Has potential. Before all, you must do something with the bearings and the WinAscent settings. Also have a look at the LT kerning pair. As is, it is a bit too sketchy to my liking. But I'm sure that when you redraw it with geometric shapes it will find it's use. Question: Why is the lowercase/alternate s not rounded, left bottom?
Nice idea for the ampersand.
You should correct the naming data.
Koobz: Nicely made. Don't know what it could be used for. Maybe rethink the zero and did you notice the irregularity in the $?
Again, the naming.
Captain: Not on Dafont. Probably because there is already another one named Captain there. Not much to add to what you say yourself. But also here there seems to be something wrong with the bearings. On your site it looks better than this pict but still that w.
Quickrite: Also not available for download. No comment, As you say, tons of those around. Yet, if this is how you write then this is how you write.
SantaCarla: This one I really like. I can easily see it being used in a logotype. Just clean it up and you have a potential commercial one. Add the accents and put the alternates in a more logical place or make an alternates. Worthwhile.
Again, the naming.
Take out the garbage: Yes! Please!!
The square thing: Nice as an experiment. Further useless.
Oakland Hills 1991: Not my sort of type but there are surely enough out there who will like it. Have you considered to make the lower case letters a flame fill for the capitals?
Again, the naming.
Apocalypse fax: Reminds me of Crouwel's Stedelijk after a termite attack.
Pee Pants (that started all this): Nice try. Clean it up and people will use it. No need to mumble about the naming, right?
Decco Disco: Not available for download. One of many. Judging on the sample here, little consistency in letter design.
Kitten Meat: What would The Kat think of that?
Blog, the Impaler: Not available for download. Reminds me of the Wedgie.
