I see a lot of excuses and sidestepping in your posts. Blaming e-commerce and others for your business practices. It is a shame that your customers get treated in such a way. Ordering custom and made to order does not demand 100% of operating cost and 100% of profit be paid upfront. Nothing special about e-commerce to dictate that model either.
Coincidentally, I know something about custom furniture not made in NC. Our single largest expenses are electricity, fuel and taxes. The secondary is depreciation and materials. Time goes against profit. This piece was crafted from black walnut and holly.

Nice table, I love working with walnut. A few of my tables. Sorry for the high jacked thread!

Kudos for clamping that glue up.

Nice building, but that was two years ago. Before all this trouble started.

Judging by this award, Neill Grading and Construction is no fly by night outfit. After seeing what I believe to be shady practices by Ted and company, I am likely to believe he tried to stiff the contractor, just like he stiffed a lot of his customers.

when’s the last time you hired a contractor to build a house or do some repair work? Did they require payment in full, upfront? Did you hire them?

Most contractors I know and seen require 10-50 percent down payment before scheduling a project depending on its size.

Many at least require payment to cover materials at the start of construction.

And they can file mechanics liens that affect the homeowners ability to sell if they are not paid

Yeah, when we built our little $100k barn, they called me a week prior and said, we need $30k, we will be there within the week to start. Had three payments over the course of the 10 day build.

In a building that size, there was likely a 10-20% up front payment and a contracted performance pay schedule after that. The items I've seen that stopped the occupancy permit were all minor fixes. All of the materials should have been paid in full and the contractor should have received about 80% of his money by then with the final payment paid when the permit was given and final site cleanup was completed.

What I find as very troubling, is that when EA was in their death spiral, they put a large number of their items on sale (10% discount) in an attempt to entice more people to fork over hard earned cash on orders they knew they would not be able to fulfill.

Lots of potentially libelous statements in this thread.

Name one. I've seen opinions which aren't libelous. I've seen statements of fact which are also not libelous.

They are gone, time to give this thread a rest...

Hopefully those who paid and didn't receive a product, will be made whole.

Not my job. I was careful to state “potentially.”

Defamation is a complex subject and merely stating something as an opinion does not always ensure the statements are protected free speech.

And we were almost to 100 pages.

The shady part about Everything Attachments requiring payment up front during the last two-three years, is that they would not even start making your ordered piece of equipment for MONTHS after taking your money to spend elsewhere.

If they started taking "months" before fabricating orders, they only started doing it within the last year. The pallet forks I bought from them just under a year ago were delivered ~3 weeks after I ordered them...less than half the time they quoted.

 

[ultrarunner]

Contractors have remedies but the onus is on the contractor to perfect.

State law dictates how much up front, timing and required noticed, etc...

Several friends are contractors and it's a lot more than construction!

Update: Please keep future messages limited to actual updates and not speculation or endless discussion about things like building permits.

See inside Lake Norman’s mansion of glass. It can be yours for $5.5 million.

The mansion offers rare views of both the sun rising and setting each day because of its northeast position on a peninsula, owner says.

I ran a $15-20 million manufacturing company. A person cannot afford that lifestyle with $32 million company.

 

[workinonit]

But....he makes some top quality tractor implements.

 

[plowhog]

Ted Corriher, who served as general contractor on the home, said he built the mansion with 96 tons of steel

Maybe that clears up a few questions ...
