If you have a point to make please make it but make it in as factual of a way as you can. We don't want this to be a bashing thread as much as a fact finding one.

Hamilton while I have heard the exact things that you have stated you may want to let us know who you are so that there is more credibility lent to what you are saying. If you want IM some one and let them know and they can varify your ID?


Why does it matter who Hamilton is? He is not the one that took everyones money without shipping their products. This is about TRICK MARINE.

Thanks for bringing this back to life so we can see a happy ending.Fred if you need some help please call. There still time to salvage things. Good Luck

Yes we have been around for a long time (since the first version of this place). I blame this board for the boat that is sitting in my shop!!! :evilb:

I wish I could share your optomism that TooOld was going to do the right thing. If that was the case then we would know what is going on already. I think that to a man/women any of us would help out Fred if he needed/asked for it. I know that if he asked for some help down there I would be more then happy to lend a hand if the trueth came out. I think that even the ones that are owed money could show some understanding if they were JUST TOLD THE TRUETH!!! Even if he came on and said guys ya know I messed up bad and no one is getting their money, or parts. At leaste we would know what is going on and move on, at leaste I could respect the guy for manning up. Some businesses after all do fail and some fail in a big way.

It matters because he made some very bold and slanderous statements. If he came on hear and said I owned CMI would that not lend a LOT of credibility to what he is saying? As it is we can choose to beleive or not beleive what he is saying. I do beleive him just so you know but I am sure that there are a lot of people that do not......

Exactly!!!
His lack of communitcation tells everyone the person he really is!

Has he stated deleting his posts yet?? He's been known to do that everytime he gets his feelings hurt. :drink::drink:

I appreciate your optomistic outlook, but at this point I would feel safe in saying....None of the above is going to happen other than a big business failing badly...

Lots of people are either screwed, going to get screwed, screwed and they dont know it yet, or just pain out about to get fuct.....and you guys want to verify people identity before believing something??? WOW....

It's obvious to me that he (Hamilton) has used names, and stated items that people are waiting for or have been waiting for....what does his identity have to do with those facts?

...

Because people get on here spewing BS about others when there are always 2-3 sides to the story. If someone has actually tried everything to resolve the matter before resulting to the internet they should have no problem posting who they are. What's so scary about standing behind your statements if they're true?

You haven't been around here long enough to see. It happens all the time.

I want to start off by saying, I usually disregard most first time posters in a thread like this and Fred took care of me on the few orders I made with Trick. That being said, I feel there is some credibility with Hamiliton based on the above quote. He is most likely a supplier who has to stay annonymous in this situation and if I am not mistaken a long time member of this board based on some references and knowledge. I wouldn't be surprised if he has many posts under a different name. Just my .02

P.S.- I have a fresh batch of popcorn!:food-smiley-007:

It was more a case of the general population claiming Fred was a good guy and could do nothing wrong. I decided to keep my mouth shut instead of justifying my position everytime the subject came up. (I know a number of other members were feeling the same way as I would get a number of PM's agreeing with me whenever I posted my opinions on the matter)

Same "boat" as you in the aspect that I held off from "venting" due to certain backlash from the board..... had a small order I placed in the middle May..... finally received order in the middle of Oct........ After a month or 2 of ordering felt like *****in a lil bit but knew I would get the same ol.... "he's a good guy give hm time to make it right" BS.....

C'est la vie.

I don't know who "Hamilton" is, but he is 100% correct. Several of us asked about the dramatic changes in suppliers over a year ago.

CMI to Stellings

Livorsi to Gaffrig

Nobody wanted to believe that it was anything other than Trick changing vendors. You don't drop two of the biggest names in the industry. They drop you.

Unfortunately if you're getting in line now, you are towards the back!

If it's true, it is not slander.
