My mistake. I assumed since they didn't bother to add their website to their google listing and seeing only Facebook, ebay and youtube links at the top that they didn't have one. Either way, they only accept payment in full on their site so I'm not sure what your point is. Yes they have a...
What would you like to know? The guy has been outright scamming people for months. Why take down his website now? He probably fired the only people that knew how to manage the site anyway.
There is no one that can shutter the site other than the owner short of a court order to the company...
Your two examples aren't ecommerce companies. Rut manufacturing doesn't have a website and Kaufman trailers doesn't take online orders. I know because I have one of their trailers and paid when I went in picked it up in person.
If you can cite an ANY company that sells anything that takes...
To be fair, no one mentioned "6 months later" until way later into this conversation. Initially you all just complained about "Payment up front" and only wanted to pay in full when it ships. No one here ever implied that a 6 month lead time is a good way to do business. We only said that payment...
Lol this guy is a real piece of work...

Whether you pay up front or pay moments before it ships, you're still paying. I don't see the difference from a customer standpoint. You either trust the online company with your money or you don't. They're either going to stiff you or they're not. Everyone makes it seem like the businesses are...
No one here seems to have any issue with all the other implement manufacturers payment up front policies. Lots of positive mentions of Homestead Implements in this thread but no one in a guff about their payment in full online store. Weird.
Paying with a credit card makes your end 100% risk free.
Not on time? Chargeback
Materially different than ordered? Chargeback
Damaged in transit? Chargeback
Lost in transit? Chargeback
Shipped to wrong address? Chargeback
Company generally pissing you off? Chargeback

You guys are really misunderstanding the difference between custom and made to order.
EA offers a huge amount of different implements and is able to offer so many because everything is made to order. If they were making and stocking hundreds of different products they would need Chinese factory...
And that's totally fine since I would not deal with a client who I don't know can actually pay me for the product they're ordering.
You're referring to authorization vs. capture. Most companies will authorize your CC immediately when you order. This basically verifies and puts a hold on your...
Custom / Semi Custom furniture and display products. Some more popular items / sizes are premade and ready to ship but those products are listed as such. If those common items are not already in stock, they will share the same lead time as a custom made item.
Our lead time is currently weeks...
We literally do it every day. I'm speaking from direct experience, not speculation. I've been in business for 20 years and have been running it like this since day one. We also do not take orders over 10k via credit card because of the fraud liability so we regularly get wire transfers from our...
Custom and made to order are one in the same. If you order a specific implement for a specific machine that is not sitting around as inventory then it is made to order. If and when you cancel your order they now have to store this product until the right person comes along and purchases it. When...
As someone who runs an e-commerce business, let me explain something to all of you who can't grasp the concept of a company requiring up front payment.
If you purchase an item from my website (custom or not) and I ship it to you without payment....there is literally nothing I can do to force...
