Yeah, I'm having trouble reconciling it too. There's a piece (or two) missing from this story, and I don't care to speculate. It's bad for all involved. Hard to believe this is even happening here.
If a bartender told me to pipe down, especially the head bartender, I think I would do as he said. Scot is a good guy but it isn't wise to try his patience. A word to the wise . . . .
One good thing to come out of this mess for me, is that I had the opportunity to learn what a stand up company Aero (the proper Aero) is and how much they care about their customers - even one step removed ones like me, who they didn't even know existed before.
Great customer service is a wonderful thing!
HorseHide, I can certainly feel for Mark, having had to close up a business myself when the cash flow just wasn't there to support it. I guess starting a small business just before 9/11 wasn't one of my best decisions We are still suffering financially from this, all these years later.
What is the full history of Mark Moye's relationship with Aero Leathers? Were there financially difficulties in the past? Were they swept under the carpet? Was Mark Moye given a second chance by Aero?
Why do Aero claim that volume of work is the reason for long waiting times not the fact that they have no horsehide at the moment? Are there cash flow problems which means that they cannot regularly order basic raw materials?
Thanks!Ditto, again.
Trob09, I like your style.
Totally agreed!!!Better not damage Aero's reputation by gossiping/defaming.
It sure sounds like something serious happened on Mark's end. Certainly out of charactor. I've known him for years and this dropping of orders just doesn't jive. No conciliation for those who feel left hanging...but this one man operation failed because of something quite drastic happening to that man...in my view. I am sure if/when he can get it together everyone will be made whole...no matter the problems. I know many of us are bewildered that this could have ever happened.
