    At the very least lower the price. But okay.

    Oh I get it, they saw an opportunity and jumped on it. Every business has to make a profit or they don’t stay in business long.

    Problem was..it was a "pre-order" all the meanwhile the same grills are flooding out of China at a much lower price
    It's their business practice and can do what they want. I'm just here for the free popcorn.

    I am not agreeing with what they did, I am just saying that if they didn't do it someone else would have. It's not that they are selling the grilles for the price they are, it's the fact that they lied and said there better quality when there not. They also keep saying they are doing legwork and customer service blah blah blah, too many members on here would disagree with that. Trump was supposed to make it harder for companies to outsource labor, I guess @CaliRaisedLed isnt the only one who lied.

    When I was talking to them about lights in the spring they were great, answered any questions, and said I could come by and pick up the products in person while I was on holiday in California.

    I agree with the business strategy to obtain goods (sometimes from a foreign manufacturer), add markup and sell. Unless you are a direct manufacturer and move a product through to retail sales, everyone essentially does this. However, I also agree that statements from this vendor are misleading in that they claim this is their own design and somehow different that the competition. Consumers are always free to try to cut out the middle man and buy direct, sometimes with good or bad results. I was an early adopter and have no regrets, I got what I paid for. Had I waited, I might have gotten a better deal, but that is always a risk and CaliRaised promised no price match from the get go. No excuse for poor customer service though. That will kill any business in my experience.

    Why do you still even want it? I would get a refund and pay 140 less for the same thing on eBay. You'll get the same if not better customer service and save a lot of money.

    Oh I misunderstood, I thought you didn't have anything and were trying to switch to a different grille after seeing they were shipping black ones.
