    @JLee will the current economy grill have the new 14-16mil coating you speak of? I just got the shipment notification and am getting antsy for my sliders!

    He has to sit on TW all day and pat the little snowflakes on the head and explain slowly and loudly how his business works, so that they don't become sad.

    As any decent vendor should do. They should all be more than willing to explain their fabrication process, just as any business should explain how they work. Just as every responsible consumer should ask these questions.

    It's explained pretty well when you order that there's a 12 week lead time. Why you knowingly clicked that box and then accuse the guy of being a thief I can't quite figure out.

    I didn't accuse anyone of being a thief. I simply pointed out that taking all the money before product completion is not a good business practice which most people agree. I then asked how fabrication process worked so I could understand why it took 12 weeks. Nothing is explained other than its a 12 week lead time, which is why I asked. Not very bright are you.

    I don't mean to be that guy but....
    Any idea what the time frame is for the sliders #4105. I'm already super impressed the economy grill is coming in a months time!

    You edited that part out of your post where you said he was "basically stealing", but JLee quoted it in #2910 so you got that going for you. I feel the process is explained pretty well in this thread. If you care to do a little reading you'll find the answers you're looking for. That would be what a normal person would do.

    Boy are you stupid. Nothing was edited it out, it's in post #2906. Its in reference to taking money for an undelivered product which is criticizing a business process. This thread is 147 pages long and there is nothing about their fabrication process in it..find a similar post to #2919 and I'll be more than happy...run along

    I could have easily called and asked for this information over the phone which they would have provided but I thought it would benefit the TW community to have them post it here for everyones edification.

    Thank you, we all appreciate you leaving and taking your idiocy with you. I'm sure I will absolutely love the grill when it arrives.

    Hey guys I have a blemished recessed grille ready to ship. 20% off to the first person to claim it even if you have a pending order I'll refund 20% off the retail price.
    Pending orders will have first dibs.

    Here is the blems I'm sure only you would know. Just some wonky slots.
