I guess I am having trouble figuring out why this is here and what the point is.

In Before Lock... This one is doomed.

In reviewing your charge card statement it seems you missed a couple cool stops along the way... good choice on gas stations... humm the Stop & Shop looks a little scary. Did you go to the musuem on 2 days in a row... that is a cool place. I guess one could spend 2 days there easily. Wise move... got you tabs renewed.

What is a Hess??


I think APE explained this situation out quite clearly... to include the fact that an employee got fired. This is starting to sound like a vendetta to me.

I was waiting for others to chime in... there were lots of views on the thread... the lack of posts to state simular problems would indicate that you were an isolated case.

Drive over and talk to them. Nasty letters never get you anywhere.

Wasn't this already beaten to death or was that only on the F-Body site? APE has already responded to these allegations several times.

If you don't know Jim hogan, he is a great, honest guy who has done a lot for the Fbody community. It's unfortunate that this whole mess had to happen to him. AP really should make things right, if not to save their reputation, at least don't screw someone who has done nothing but good for many FBody owners and Fans.

If you've never been to Fbody.com, you should know Jim created, opperates, and maintains this site out of his own pocket. He is the last person who should have to deal with such a hassle.

APE .... Make it right

That's what I was thinking.

We went through this whole deal yesterday with the inappropriate hijacking of the vendor's thread. I made a post to the thread to that effect and contacted the vendor and the customer directly, making sure they understood the appropriate way to deal with such disputes on the Forum. As far as I can tell, each of them understands the Forum rules/guidelines on the matter and is adhering to them.

This thread, started by a third party, is once again a violation of Forum rules. This can be done the right way or it can be done the wrong way. Take your choice and accept the consequences.
