    I hope that they do you right. Sucks to hear this kind of stuff happen. I do know that I have been down the road before where I couldn't get a product to someone for one reason or another... This is starting to sound like a little different deal though. I say give them a call before calling on the witch hunt though. TW has a way of going hard at thieves which is a good thing. Just want to make sure that it's all for sure.

    Same thing happened to my buddy. He bought a light bar and pods from them and was promised a 2nd light bar after putting a bunch of money down for a sponsorship and the 2nd light bar never showed up. When he attempted to try and get in touch with them, they stopped answering him and went so far as blocking him on IG! So every chance I get as one of their followers on IG I blast them on their posts for what they did to my buddy and that people shouldn't buy from this company. Or fall for a "Sponsorship" Good luck OP! They're true douche's and swindlers!

    Sounds like they are raising start up Capital for the business with this so called $100.00 worth of product.

    When enough orders have been reached the product is ordered from the supplier .

    It is so much easier to tell customers what they want to hear rather then the truth

    100% chance these are Chinese light bars. If they are taking over a month to arrive then that means they are putting in orders and they're shipping directly from china, perhaps to them first so they can rebox it in their own box and then ship it to you.

    OK, what a fucked up thing.

    1st read title, Though OP flat out hated light bars.
    2nd read 1st post, now think OP is paying 100 bucks for Fuck light bars.
    3rd realize op may be getting fucked by FUCKlightbars.
    4th read someone else got fucked by fucklightbars.

    5th and most important. Don't by a fucking this from Fucklightbars even if they talk about their Fucked up sponsorship, where you have to Fucking pay Fucklightbars.

    So to wrap this all up.

    Fuck Light Bars, go to Alcohol Bars instead.

    1. You got screwed. A sponsor doesnt charge nascar to pitch their stuff, they pay. A sponsorship is advertising, costs money.
    2. Bbb is... paid advertising. They can't do anything, nor do they want to. You pay your $$$ you get an A rating.

    Get your money back, go to Amazon. 99.99999% of all lightbars are identical regardless of the "brand".

    That's too bad! You just don't lose texts. I'm sure they didn't lose your order. But probably will say they did. At least you're smart enough to not pay them anymore. Good luck OP!

    Haha "contract". Sponsorship for a light bar? I don't see how that'll be getting their name out or anything, seriously, what's in it for them by offering free product?

    Who the hell goes up to a truck to check out the light bar brand? "Hol' up there Travis, I'ma go see what brand light ber they runnin'"
    They're all generic China crap with a stamped/engraved [see brand] logo. Get that money back.
