Re: What is going on with these dealers?!?!?!
I forgot my password at my work computer so I had to register under another name because some of mental giants on here demanded an immediate response. <br /><br />To those who think that a self-employed shop owner doesn't have enough cash to buy a 18' boat. Lest we assume some more. First, the store is my side business, second, my full-time work is in law enforcement. I am an Investigator for the Supreme Court/Disciplinary Counsel. For the mentally-challenged on the board or at least this thread, I investigate judges and attorneys for misconduct and other bad things. I'm also a police officer in Central, OH. So let's just say that the income allows me to purchase a 18' foot boat in all it's glory and grandur. The tax check just allows me to incorporate less of my money. <br /><br />Now, I'd like to thank those who understand how customer service is "not what it used to be", to paraphrase another esteemed member here. It isn't and that's a fact. If you want to know what customer service is, call Paul's Marine in Delaware, OH and ask for Fred Holyfield. Ask him to sell you a boat like he did for me today. Ask him what I told him. It might go something like this. "Fred, I know you need to make a living and I want a boat, let's see what you got." After he threw in the Bimini top, depth finder and trailer brakes, we had a deal. He has my deposit and I advised him when my money was coming in. Hull # SERR8834C***. That being said, whatever your name is on here, remove your posts like you said you would. Come on, be a stand up guy and show some character
<br /><br />For the majority of us, we expect to have some level of customer service. For the rest, they just want everything handed to them. For the guys who have a had a problem with me, I just have the following to say:<br /><br />1.<br />I'm glad you guys don't care how you spend your money, it just makes it easier for me to get a good deal.<br /><br />2.<br />I really don't need your business at my store. Come on through. I'll be glad to give you the personal customer attention that YOU expect. Just don't be surprised when I toss you out on your rear-end.<br /><br />3. If your an attorney, watch your p's and q's while conducting legal representation in Ohio.<br /><br />4. And most importantly, watch your speed, because I'll make sure to give you that complete lack of service that you expect and just keep writing away and the state of Ohio will appreciate your financial contribution
Make sure that trailers legal!<br /><br />5. Now, all the above may be an exaggeration and having some fun with you, but the fact is, I was just expecting what any REASONABLE person would expect. Actually, I was expecting LESS than most would who are looking to buy a boat. I guess we will have to agree to disagree.<br /><br />So, this is a kudos for Paul's Marine and Fred. Thanks for the 15 minutes you gave me and I appreciate the deal that was good for both of us.<br /><br />If anyone comes through Central, OH and makes it to Buckeye Lake. Come on through the drive and I'll take care of you, especially the select few here
To the rest, I'll take care of you and the rest of your party. State law allows me to only reduce beer by so much
<br /><br />Brian, thanks for the e-mail and the info. Hope to see you soon and I hope your boat issues are addressed accordingly.<br /><br />I feel your pain Roscoe. At least now it appears I have a guy to buy my boats from, like I do the cars and motorcycles.<br /><br />By the way RICK-MI, that's why you have a good accountant take care of the IRS. They get what they expect and not a penny less. Your from Michigan I see. Add I thought I liked everyone from Michigan being that I'm from there. Thanks for ruining that for me
From your writing, it appears you are a graduate of the Detroit public school system. Accurate or no?
