well in that case make sure you tell him not to deal with eric crisp, jim pierce, jim lee, bill stroud, thomas wayne, john barton and some more whose names escapes me right now.
all of them have gotten pretty bad attitudes on here when something negative is said about them. a few of them are even currently banned from this site for their comments towards posters on here.
just because they let their emotions get the best of them when some posters berate them does not mean their products are inferior to others in any way.
a few were rightly chastised , who the hell wants to send their personal cue for repairs or refinish and wait 2 years to get it back ?
what did barioni do ? he just posted an announcement stating he was no longer providing a certain service. he was ridiculed to hell and back for his prices and no one that was ridiculing him knows whether his products are any good or not.
