I just got the story and that has to be one of the most messed up deals I've heard in a while.

Man, so many unetical, shady, lazy, good for nothing shops out there...

Let me know if I can help....

I know that more than a few have asked you about it. Time to tell the whole story buddy.
YOU know- sometimes it just better not to say anyting at all. Im sure this gy is bummed out that his oprojet didnt go as planned.

Anthony- Im across the country but welcomed to speak with you about the job if its still not done.. Sorry for your loss.

I always tel everyone -get referebnces, check them ask question and more . If the shop turned out to be a dud- did you complain to the local Better Business Bureau? Might be a start-and if its the case, you may not be the only one.

Sorry to hear though

Some times keeping your mouth shut is the right thing to do and other times it isn't. This isn't one of those times. We see this kind of thing happen all the time and there are just way to many stories about good people getting ripped off. L-G isn't a place for bottom feeders looking to make a quick buck at another's expense. Lessons learned by example if we're lucky.

The good people of have turned this one around and that's proof that this time was worth opening up about.
