    Seems like All-Pro got dumped on by every mod at TW when that shit was going down, this time not so much.

    I'm genuinely curious, why do they need an investor to complete the armor?
    Can someone explain.
    Thanks

    Just found out I’m in it until the end. My bank said I’m 314 days past the dispute period of 60 days. I paid my $1,000 deposit on 8/28/17 for the 1st gen rear swing out. Ultimately I’d rather have a bumper than my $$, that’s why I jumped on this seemingly seaworthy ship. At this point I’d settle for the raw materials and weld them up myself. The only advice my bank had was small claims court, file a complaint with the FTC and BBB. I’d like to see the Pelfrey’s “right this proverbial ship”, but at this point I guess I have to prepare to take a loss.

    Could be they're broke. Could be a number of things. Not paying suppliers and being cut off and can't source materials. Even if you have product ready to ship if you don't have the money to ship it then it's not doing any good. Stated that they needed a investor to continue operations. Basically saying they are out of business unless someone bails them out.

    All pro just straight screwed people over, there was no speculation about it (I was one of them); but while it’s not looking too good for Pelfrey right now, it’s still technically up in the air. I’m sure if there isn’t some legit updates soon, hammers will start swinging.

    Interesting. The way I could see it happening is you have a small business. You start getting more and more customers. Get a little excited and take all the orders you can.
    You realize "holy crap", there's no way we can manufacture this much stuff. We need to expand. And I would say finding skilled welders and operators is difficult. I just don't see how all this "order money" is not enough.

    Actually, I wonder how much they need. I would invest if I could have part of the business.

    Yep, got a receipt for $1,000 dated 8/28/17. I tried to get ahold of them on the first anniversary because I was tiers of waiting.

    Not sure I’m going to hold my breath... I just hope they’re as stand up as everyone says they are.

    Damn! Doesn't look good then. I've always wanted a fab shop. Seems like a difficult business to get into just doing armor.
    I know BAMF does a lot of other fab compared to his armor business.

    In a few years when you receive it, after inflation you can tell people "I got my bumper for xxx.xxx" and everyone will be like woah what a good deal.

    Until such time as Pelfrey returns to the forums to answer questions and respond to outstanding orders by member of TW/Tundras/4Runners.com, we are working to remove their vendor status and recommend members with outstanding orders seeking refunds to do so through whatever means they deem necessary
