To john with trinity: what happened here? have you seen this video?

[juniorc82]

I stumbled across this youtube video, I dont like to pass jugement on people without hearing both sides of the story. This guys seems pretty pissed what happened http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pohsz1l0Vg

 

[Connor]

I wonder if that's the same guy that sent me a PM about John supposedly screwing him on a beat up machine?

 

[John G]

NO John didn't screw Todd, and I can't say much because we will meet in court.
I will tell you this, this will be my first time in court in 39 years of business
When this is done, I will show all the evidence from BOTH sides and you all
can judge for yourselves.

 

[Dolly Llama]

I became aware of this some time ago
and heard both sides of the story (though limited)

My take ...buyers remorse .
pay THAT much for a shake 'n shine machine, and you want it to be "perfect" in every way (including cosmetically)


..L.T.A.

 

[John G]

No, you have not heard both sides Larry, but if you are interested you can call me.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Ow Gawd! Reminds me of a guy in VA Beach and his WM...

 

[Desk Jockey]

That's unfortunate, no one really wins in court.

 

[dealtimeman]

I think the question is , does the machine work?

and why with a machine that cost so much would you not just replace the handle and be done with it?

 

[Steve Lawrence]

Is there no way to stay out of court, John?

 

[John G]

Nope, I wish there was...

 

[John Olson]

yes there is send him a replacement handle...

 

[Goomer]

Looks like the handle is welded directly to the laser cut faceplate, which is welded directly to the frame.

Looks like a Bad/misaligned weld.......though not by much, not acceptable on a machine over 4 G's.
I would hope replacement was at least offered.

 

[Jimmy L]

I agree with Larry...buyer's remorse.

But if you do have an picky asshole customer why wouldn't you just fix the damn thing and be done with it?

Too much pride to admit something was wrong?

 

[bob vawter]

Too much pride

one of the seven deadly sins............

 

[dealtimeman]

Yes why not just replace the unit and fix the fabrication issue.

now some doubt about your biz practices will be talked about and aired over the Internet.

if I purchased a 4 thousand dollar tool and it worked but it was not manufactured correctly I would want a replacement or my money back.

now if it was damaged by the user that is different, I did see the trinity at connections and thought it was built like a tank and would be difficult to damage but who knows.

 

[Shane Deubell]

Guy in the video seems to be a little wacky, but who knows with this kinda stuff.

 

[John Olson]

I know Todd he isnt wacky and he just wanted it fixed..

 

[Connor]

I've already made up my mind. You gave him a crooked thing and he didn't want crooked. Obviously not an ASQ member, are you, hillbilly?

I guess that when you're a pro-queer, pseudo-fundamentalist, neo-con, douche bag with a seared conscience that a customer wanting a properly plumb and square piece of equipment isn't really important to you because you already spent the money. He didn't ask for your cloak and tunic, just for fair business and to get what he paid for. The fact that you've made such a spectacle out of this is already costing you customers and rusting your imported galvanized armor.

The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth......

And you still haven't painted my house!

 

[Bruce Humphrey]

Maybe he wanted his money back and all he got was an in store credit

 

[Connor]

I agree with Larry...buyer's remorse.

But if you do have an picky asshole customer why wouldn't you just fix the damn thing and be done with it?

Too much pride to admit something was wrong?

Obviously not enough pride to want it to be right.

Then again, he is an exclusively OP method, so that speaks volumes about what he considers "right".

 

[Ken Snow]

Chris, you seem to have a lot of emotion invested in this issue. Too bad it is being aired so publicly.

LOL That was funny!

 

[Jimmy L]

What Chris is experiencing is what many men go thru when they get older, MANBOOBS and being overly emotional due to ESTROGEN levels rising.

 

[Connor]

Chris, you seem to have a lot of emotion invested in this issue. Too bad it is being aired so publicly.

Yes, Frosty, it is too bad. Live by the boards or something like that. I suspect you detected some homofauxbia and your fingers felt the need to smirk.

Can't we all just get along

Court costs tax payers!!

 

[FredC]

ummm....God designed that machine so it can't be f'd up..it is perfect..we just aren't capable, as mere humans, of understanding why he wanted the handle like that

 

[Connor]

Maybe it's meant for somebody with two different arm lengths?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Fookin Connor!

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Should have filed claim with shipper first!

Notice how smoothly it was running in the video. I'd have twisted the handle back and skipped the drama.
