    John’s Custom Saws build nightmare, what would you do?

    Fortunately this saw was more of a want than a need. I did want it as a backup to my 661. And I actually ended up having to buy a new 661 while waiting on this saw due to a cylinder failure.

    John’s Custom Saws build nightmare, what would you do?

    Normally I’d be a little more cautions just sending a brand new saw to someone from the internet, but there were several reputable people in the industry who had seemingly good experience with him so I thought he was legit.

    Not to my knowledge, i don’t think he’s a member here either.

    John’s Custom Saws build nightmare, what would you do?

    Oh yeah that sounds like the guy I’m speaking of. I have saved all of our emails and texts thankfully. I don’t know how much good they’ll do me other than using them to warn other potential customers. Taking legal action would probably cost me a lot more than the saw

    John’s Custom Saws build nightmare, what would you do?

    ***Edit after several pm’s with other guys I have decided I’ll name him: John’s Custom Saws from Instagram and YouTube.**** So last year in November I reached out to a popular saw builder (I’m not gonna name him just yet) to build a custom 500i for me. He states he is very busy but if I was...

    Thanks for all the feedback guys. I haven’t heard anything from him since yesterday morning and I hope that remains the case. Like many of you have said all reasoning is over with at this point. If I do here anything more out of him he’s gonna play my game or get off the field at that point.

    The only problem with the borrowed stump grinder theory is the day he claims it was done , the grinder was hooked to my truck with me. And also he is adamant that “my number” is the one he called to set it up. I don’t have a secretary or anyone who answers the phone other than me. So im not sure...

    Customer service nightmare

    Yep. I like that. I’ve got a friend who is an attorney. Im thinking of having him call the guy or send him a certified letter and let him know in no uncertain terms that we are not playing his games and any attempt at defamation will be met with swift legal action in civil court.

    Not a bad idea. It’s definitely possible I’ll be having him removed if he shows up, if he has the same attitude in person he has on the phone. Part of me doesn’t really expect him to show up though, I imagine I’ll be blessed with a 1 star Google review and that will be the end of it.

    Customer service nightmare

    Update: I just called him and let him know there’s no possible way that we did the job and he says I’m calling his wife a liar. And he and his wife “will be coming to town” and that I’m gonna put my guys in a line so she can point out which one it was. I told him I won’t be pulling them off of...

    Customer service nightmare

    Same here. We don’t even have a sign at our shop. It’s just irritating when someone threatens to smear your reputation over the actions of another company. I guess that’s one of the “roll with the punches” parts of owning a business.

    Customer service nightmare

    That’s where I’m at. I’m gonna give him one final polite phone call letting him know it was not us and I’m gonna go about my business. It’s so hard to do knowing the times we are living in, where the internet has such a heavy influence on peoples decisions. Yet anyone has the power to make...

    Dementia has crossed my mind. In my experience people with dementia settle on the what they think is the truth and will take that to the grave.

    Customer service nightmare

    This was my original plan, but after he sent me pictures and dates, I know for a fact it wasn’t us. So the thought of me taking both of my guys off of a job and driving 30 minutes each way burning 5.60 per gallon diesel to do some sort of “Criminal Style” Line up doesn’t sit well with me. Also...

    Customer service nightmare

    Ok so I do have a memory of speaking with someone around this time who wanted a quote over the phone, I explained we can’t quote over the phone but I was happy to come out and give an in person quote. He wanted to send pictures first so I could give him a ballpark. I agreed to give a non binding...

    Customer service nightmare

    I had a gentleman call me this evening to ask if we were the ones to grind a stump at a certain address, I said “hold on let me check our records”. I go check jobber and QuickBooks and I have no record of his name or address so I say “no sir that wasn’t us” he hangs up. Calls back an hour...

    Has anyone ever run a boom dolly? I think I’d be legal in Ga on a annual permit with full counterweight and a boom dolly.
