    To have a reason to bump this thread, I compiled a total of the value of all the online complaints I could find, along with information from buyers that I directly contacted through social media.

    Value of Parts not delivered = $16,270 (est)
    Value of custom fabrication paid for and not done correctly = $36,200 (est)


    If you know others who haven't gotten the products they paid for please let me know the value of the order and I'll continue to update these totals.

    I guess he didn't like getting texted 3-4 times a week about a year and a half old order that he's been promissing "soon".

    I feel bad for this new persons inbox.

    I guess that guy is the winner of who Drew's Fab screwed the most. I'd love to hear the story behind that.

    Guess the numbers need to be updated to reflect that:
    Value of Parts not delivered = $16,270 (est)
    Value of custom fabrication paid for and not done correctly = $68,000 (est)

    In case anyone cares about updates:
    I got upgraded from "I am working on it," which he's been saying since January 2024, to "It's being packaged, and we'll send you the Tracking number."

    That was a month ago and now he's gone radio silent again.

    It looks like they made it one or two pay periods, as I was getting emails within a day (BS responses, but they were responses). Now, it's been two+ weeks without a response. I guess they didn't last that long. :D

    Now he's deleting comments on posts about orders not being fulfilled.

    He deleted another one last night. What a :jpow:.

    I guess he doesn't like getting called out.

    He's either quick, or has my comments set to auto delete. This is the fourth time he's deleted a comment.
