EA grapple not an option now what?

[Lineman North Florida]

What is your objection to post 109, just because he takes a different position from you, maybe?

If you read my post you would see that I said to another member who liked his Land Pride grapple that the other post said that he had a friend who's Land Pride grapple self destructed, I simply said that I thought that LP implements were pretty good, never said I had an objection, that's just you stirring in something where there is nothing.

All that I know is what I saw.

And all I know is how they treated me, and they didn't have to !
They could have said, sorry, no warranty !

You are right. You had a good experience.
I saw them treat others differently... and am not the only person in this thread who has said so.

No matter. They are gone, at least until he needs money and tries to start back up again.

Your post shows why we say they had a cult like following. EA can do no wrong... and don't even suggest otherwise.

I'm intelligent enough to know when I receive excellent customer service.
It's obvious that EA hurt your feelings at some point.
Did they do anyone wrong ? I have no clue, I haven't seen any post where they wronged anyone that owns a EA grapple . People that did break parts were sent new parts, when there was an up grade, they were sent the upgraded parts.
If you can find a post where a EA grapple owner was ever wronged, please post it. I would like to see it

I must have misinterpreted your meaning then.

Folks, if you're going to insult one another, at least put some effort into it. I've heard considerably more creative vitriol out of my 13 year olds peers.

People sure do get emotional about EA.

Well, I died choking on my coffee as I read that.

Some posters here act like their mistress (EA) spurned them. Or they may be the spurned mistresses I'm not exactly sure which sometimes.

I purchased a Land Pride from my local Kubota dealer. Have had it nine years now. I've had to repaint the tips of the tines and that's all. It's been an excellent implement.

i did too. The EA in this size range was not much lighter and more expensive. It hasn’t blown up on me yet but I’ll start wearing a bomb suit when near it.

That Ted dude has to be the bumbest of all. He made a great product for the compact tractor and his fans were throwing money at him. He should have stayed small and profitable, kept his cult strong, and then sold his name. It’s almost like he went crazy with the money and blew it all on coke and hookers, cause it just doesn’t make sense how you kill such a good niche.

Kind of what I was thinking, he definitely had a following and obviously they made some good products , it's hard to imagine how it came to what it did and while I'm sure it was a culmination of things I guess the new building and issues with the contractor may have been the straw that broke the camels back.

As a contractor who’s been in construction since 1990 and in biz since ’98, when I hear issues with contractor and I think unpaid prop tax, it sounds like money was a major issue and financing for the project may have been used elsewhere like payroll/bills. If I see an issue with money from the customer I pull off until I’m satisfied I’ll be paid.

Exactly, I’ll let a customer go about 0” into my pocket before we’ll stop work and wait for the check to clear. If you don’t have time to pay, you can’t be in a hurry to get the job done.

I thought you were going to say he spent half the money on coke and hookers, and the rest he just wasted

Yeah but everyone makes their own mistakes. His mistake didn't hurt me and I don't condone it but IF we were to have a thread about every crook out there it would be impossible to read them all.

Probably time to shut it down.
