Agreed...and that whole rob from Peter to pay Paul was my first assumption after seeing Mac’s posts. Not a business man on the planet that hasn’t done that, while crossing his fingers a big receivable comes in. But where that doesn’t fly is the dude complaining says the vendor is still doing other people’s just-as-expensive projects. If that’s factual, that reads more like a personal beef.
Again, don’t wanna be too sympathetic if the guy is ripping people off...but I’ve been in situations like this with $30k engines, where I look like absolute shit from the customers perspective, but the customer never relays he changed the build plan 15 times in 12 months which required more funds for custom parts and adds more time, then the customer runs out of funds or the season is over and it’s not quite a priority any more, blah blah blah. Just saying I think there are scenarios where the vendor could be justified and I/we haven’t really seen his side of the story.
