Discussion about DIY vendors, delivery delays, communication, and transparency

To be fair, I was the first one to drop a mic. Everybody elseā€™s Mic Drop was lackluster. Especially Mike. They didnā€™t even invent Mics until he was in his late 30s.

I take Mic Drops very seriously. It is my other passion.

Lumping my Mic Drop with everyone elseā€™s Mic Drop is really demeaning.

Senderā€™s Priorities

  1. Es8

  2. Dropping of Microphones

  3. Beer and cheese curds

  4. Family, I suppose

Thatā€™s fine ā€¦ I think you are completely entitled to do soā€¦ after all you have options to select your customersā€¦ the same way we can select the vendorsā€¦ fair game

Nah, dudeā€¦ I have been here for a whileā€¦ even had different accountā€¦ but Damon talked about meā€¦ didnā€™t mentioned my nameā€¦ thatā€™s when I entered the talk, in factā€¦ i was told Iā€™m being mentioned. itā€™s okā€¦ I can take harsh if supportedā€¦though I still think you guys donā€™t really get what we are trying to tell you and thatā€™s too badā€¦ because we mean your well beingā€¦

@Michaelinvegas A lot of fiber here :smile:

@mmaner Please close this thread but do not delete it. Some valid points all around.

My 2Cents:

This is an infant movement that canā€™t be call an industry yet and all this type of issues will happen in the development of a new sector.

Something to have in mind, the auto industry is over 100 years old and the auto repair sector alone is a $ 63 BILLIONS a year dollars industry, even on a mature industry things will fail.

As builders we are in a partnership with the buyers, most of the complete boards are just price $200 to $400 over the cost of the parts, we are trying to innovate but will only happen if is together.

In short for cool ass boards we all need to carry the weight.

P.S. it is just my opinion.

I think the thread should remain open, it is good to talk about delays or when certain builders ghost their customers. It helps bring things into light and resolve the issues. Sure there has been some name calling here and there or excessive use of the ellipses ā€¦ :wink: but the conversation has been civil and can continue to be constructive. If the thread is closed it will just get buried and the topic will move to a less constructive venue.

Iā€™ve heard great and terrible stories about a sword planting.

I heard a few times that Paypal only protects the buyer. Let this be proof, that they donā€™t let people charge back without a reason.
