Be very careful when buying from this company, they can not be trusted!

We bought a few things and what a joke, crap. But the thing that really ****ed me off is on their site they re-edit what other members have posted and say what they want, to make it look like the poster said it. They are F'ed up over there! They sell crap (I am sure they have some good stuff if you are careful), they have no credibility, no ethics...should I go on?

I agree. It is truly disgraceful how they are running that forum and slandering various individuals and companies. I have never bought from them, nor will I. It is unfortunate that they get any business or attention at all.

Robert Barnes the owner or lowery was the founder of progressive machinery, he sold it to workhorse tuff products then stated his autions, he has always been head to head w/m&r becasue he was progresive machery, in respect to tspb boards this is the first i have heard that he took over, i will let you know the ex owner of the tspb boards was full of shixzxzzt he played god which a lot of us lost respect for him /tspb boards years ago due to his unprofesionalism. i havent gone on that board for a long time so i cant say mush about whats up now except the lowery group is headed up by hard hitters salesman/ very agressive, but i havent heard good or bad from anyone on the west coast.

I have been there and have been involved recently, and he is a sick man. I was never follower of Scott F, But this guy and his company crosses the line when it comes to ethics. I am not promoting one supplier over another, nor did I have any dislike towards Barnes when he first took over the boards early this year. I just can't stand back a watch people getting conned and buying crap from this creep. I will continue to warn people who will listen.

What exactly did you buy? It's an auction, you had at least 2 days to inspect your items before you bid on them.. I fail to see how you could consider it "crap" especially when you had every opportunity to look at it yourself. Secondly, if your so certain the items were crap.. why did you bid? Hmmm ..... Maybe you didn't even buy anything at all..

I'd be happy to prove your purchase.... Whats your invoice number and bidder number, Email me it. I'll even post the results.

Also what "Barnes" does over there, at that other board.. Is just that, the other board. So why don't you go post there? Or you ****ed you got banned for something, and your post got edited?

"I just can't stand back a watch people getting conned and buying crap from this creep." Explain this to me... PLEASE! How can you get conned, when your able to see stuff and touch it and run it yourself before you buy it? Anyone want to come on down and visit email me... We'd love to show you our warehouse slammed full of used items for auction and sale. Barnes hasn't been involved on an Used Sale in months. Soooo again... at least get your facts straight.
