    Wow. So according to them, the "investors" were monitoring forums and saw the negative impact of their radio silence so they pulled anchor and left?

    I never did business with them, but never heard anything but good from others about the company. Up until recently of course. I sure hope the customers can get their money back. I feel worst for those guys who were persuaded to pay cash

    I mean it’s easy for them to pay someone to monitor their pages so they can make a sound investment. If I was an investor with “millions of dollars” to pull this company out of debt I wouldn’t blindly invest into them without knowing what the market was like. And with the way they reacted I would be hesitant to toss down money. That being said Pelfreybuilt didn’t handle this situation in a good way and they dug their own grave and now they are pointing fingers and throwing a pity party for themselves.

    I'm baffled. That's the biggest load of shit I've ever heard. I can't even imagine how mad I would be if I had an open order

    That response explains why the business didn't work imo. Instead of putting in the needed effort to keep the customers from feeling uncomfortable they did nothing and expected everyone to trust them. Someone send them the simon sinek book "start with why"....

    I dont believe they lost EVERYTHING as they said.

    Hence the demand for cash payments.

    Look, I'm familiar with the way they did what they did, I've met some shitty people in my life.

    I do not trust people, so maybe I'm just s cynical bastard.

    Yeah I agree. I was even hesitant to drop money on mobtown sliders but sadly I can’t buy prebuilt armor anywhere

    Don’t worry, too many people know where my shop and house is. Plus I have to make this work no matter what. I refuse to go back to work for someone.
