I believe he kinda got what he wanted which was some negative press for the Eastonmade products...even if it was all B.S.
When you search Eastonmade with g00gle this thread pops up on the first page and might deter some small businessman from wanting to even chance dropping a bunch of cash on a rig that doesn’t perform great and last a good long while. This was admittedly what ol douchebag Bryan wanted from the get go.
What all the non-members that find themselves here after doing a search of MD Group Inc. need to do is read back through this thread and ask themselves if they want to do business with people that openly lie on a public forum.
First off, I do not sell firewood but know people locally that do. From what I have seen, it is like most other things and it has been mentioned here before. If you do a good job and treat people with respect by giving them a good product, they will come back and word of mouth will give you all the sales you can handle. Anymore, I get REAL leary of places that advertise endlessly as you wonder why they have to. Normally it becomes evident pretty fast.
I'd be interested to know what you guys that sell have found. Fly by nighters come in, promise the world and undercut the local prices and sell wet wood. Customers go away and come back once they get burned. (pun intended) Comments?
What really did amaze me when I first saw this thread was I did some searching to see if anyone else had any issue. Not a single thing came up. Red Flags started to raise as for someone to claim issues, basically from day one, did not make sense. We all know what happened from there and it was quite a surprise to have the actual maker chime in and fill in the blanks. For him to post the conversations between them when he was threatened by the other party that he was, was awesome. No cherry picking on words, just the truth which painted the picture pretty quick.
My hope is people will take the time to read through to see what was up,which honestly, I think they would if they were serious about something of this cost. You can tell by the stuff Andrew is making, he's not in it to make a quick buck by sacrificing component quality. Most companies out there are not taking that route as they are in the throw away mentality of the day. Commercial quality should mean commercial quality. bottom line.
