Hmmm. I look into my crystal ball and see a couple of shops 20 miles away from Tamarac, Florida. Post up what happens. I for one will avoid doing any business with that shop. You don't have to pm me. It's obvious to anyone who can read and has access to a map or the internet.

Holy $#!!+,

$15,000.00 up the duck's ***.

The amount takes my breath away. But then, I remember spending close to that amount when I had it.

I Agree 100% James. A legal "Letter" may do the trick. They owe you 15k$ + your work time lost (about 20-25k$). CALL A LAWYER.

As others have advised, get a lawyer NOW and STOP posting anything about this shop until the case is heard and resolved. If this transpired as you state you have a pretty good case IMHO.

15 grand!! I think its time to call John RAMBO!! If that doesn't do it call Chuck Norris


Sorry to hear that. They won't see me at that shop. I hate these showman/slop merchants. Thats the equivalent to the lying kid with a big fat mouth in school. We all had one and alot of them are selling something now a days.

My time and frustration would be at the top of the list (Even if I had 15k).
