I agree with you wholly John, but I think the matter at hand here with 95% of the people was monies that were taken and orders never replaced or parts not received as a result of never being placed. I'm sure others would agree and probably be more willing to wait on product if their orders were at least placed and it was a legit deal and they were assured they were placed by an order number or confirmation number. We all know and understand the business of parts available can be slow at times. I know many on here have said Frank was a good guy. He could have taken a million dollars from a guy, but if the guy called 10 manufacturers and all 10 said we have your order and it has been paid by Prodigy, but we are having a hard time getting materials from their supplier, the guy would be 100 times more understanding than if the company said we have no such order from a Prodigy Customs and never have received a million dollars. That's where the doo-doo hits the fan. Lastly, even after all of this...at least be able to refund a guy his money in the end. No matter if a vendor "so-called" forgot to place the order, the order was wrong, etc. Don't have a guy waiting on money and never get it back even 6, 9, 12, 18 months later.
