    I wouldn't expect this to come through. They are looking for potential investors they say. That to me SCREAMS Ponzi Scheme. They were likely using the funds from new orders to fund previous orders. That is the definition of a Ponzi. It's terrible to say, but even IF they get back into operation I would be extremely hesitant to buy.

    As previously stated, I spoke to one of their reps (Kristyna) last Friday (rip phone lines). There were items *NOT DONE* when I spoke to her. Not "not finished with powder coat," they were legitimately not finished putting the order together. I decided this week after crunching numbers for when I leave island that I wasn't comfortable with the wait.. and then this happened.

    I like how everyone is defending them so much but when allpro did this it only took a few hours to destroy their rep. I get it they are having troubling times but possibly sounds like they bit off more than they can chew or they are seriously bout to up their production numbers and time. Either way this group buy does suck for military people more I think because point in case one member is moving and placed an order with intent to get their stuff before shipping his truck ( Haha shoulda jumped in on my mobtownoffroad group buy where I shipped everything ) I'm interested to see where this long wait goes but man o man they have some serious making up and ass kissing to do too right this wrong for sooooo many people.
    Just my .02 as well.

    It was never ready..... same as the other 300 orders on standby for the last 2 months nationwide. And yeah its a trip when All-Pro gets the hammer and PB gets to buy time. Yes they are good people, i spoke to them before and they seem really nice, but no one ever knows what goes on behind closed doors... business is business. John at All-Pro was a really nice guy......Bernie Madoff was a cool dude too....

    The mass apologizing for tariffs (that other vendors have stated is not an issue) and ‘who knows’ when they’ve publicly stated they need cash flow to fulfill orders is astounding.

    The newest picture on their FB is from me posting on their Instagram because their staff was going through and liking people’s posts and not answering questions. Got time to like ‘hopes and prayers,’ but not to reassure people who have thousands on the line. Great customer service.

    That company is legally done. If they’re signing disclosure agreements (which is never good, he’s not protecting state secrets), their finances are atrocious.

    Wasn’t really defending them was just trying to stay positive and hope for a better outcome before I start pulling hairs lol. This was my first GB ever of any sort and with TW so I says wth and go for it seems legit and researching on them sounded like a good idea. Mind u this was me 2nd guessing my 1st option which I should’ve stick with which was with universal 4x4. Got a few items from them and should’ve gone with their bumper option also at the time but call me a Sucka and why not everyone else I went with NAME lol. O’well like I said “ bumbai u learn”.

    I guess now it’s all about getting money back

    Although I'm not really affected by the outcome, still hoping for the best while expecting the worst.
    But labor day Has come and gone, and the anticipation is killing me!

    They’ve only posted on FB that they’re doing all they can. My disputes are open, and NFCU knows too. Lack of response, owning a ton of money, and they don’t even have products made. Michael posted a response saying they weren’t prepared for tariffs because of how far back they were. Take money, raw materials go up, and you can’t fulfil orders (ongoing?). That’s a recipe for going under.

    Let go and a disclosure agreement? It's looking like curtains.

    I’d bet they’re gonna get bought out or invested in and then let go for new management. They have solid product design that sells.

    If that happens. We’ll see.
