Compedgemarine,

Yup, yup. I can’t argue with a single keystroke there at all. And wasn’t suggesting Dan would be the one to sue, either. If I had any doubts, I’d have kept my mouth shut.

Lawyers ruin everything.

Thanks. Brad.

Thanks. Brad.

exactly

I`m sorry I cant justify not selling a part because you might get sued. That`s the dumbest thing I ever heard. It`s a TIE BAR not a helicopter rotor.
Might as well close down every industry then. Sorry can`t sell you that furnace part cause you might blow yourself up or die in your sleep from CO. Can`t sell you that supercharger what if you go too fast and kill yourself ??? The examples are endless.
On the same level as shutting down the country over a 99.8% survivable flu.

Anyway thank God there`s still reasonable people on Earth with a brain in their heads like Brad.
BTW beautiful work Brad.

Nice work Brad. I agree with both sides, unfortunately this is now the world we live in. I only see it getting worse, however there are still common-sense good folks around.

Scabs?
Ambulance Chasers?
Lawyers ruin everything?

The Morgan and Morgan reference,.... you guys are being tough on me today/tonight (yes I am a lawyer, and yes I work for Morgan & Morgan) - I have no opinion on the price of the parts or the offer for the parts to be made in this thread.

Seriously, Scabs? That is a first.



compedgemarine 09-15-2022 09:31 PM

it's a cold cruel world. no offense meant but I you have to admit there are a lot of lawsuits out there that should never be brought. as for Morgan and Morgan I have no personal experience with them but I hear their commercials 50 times a day and a lot of the ads come across that way to use common folk. are all lawyers bad? no, I have several that are customers and while I may give them a hard time on occasion they do good work but like every industry there are good and bad. lawyers are just an easy target sometimes and some of them deserve to be. again no offense meant.
