          Location: NW MT | Please, please, please - people, be sure WHO you are dealing with. It has come to our attention that one of our "famous, long term scammers" has a new(er) ploy. She has started several Facebook pages that "look" like they are the REAL companies page ... she responds AS that company, etc. She tried to steal funds from a woman (not a barrel racer) on a 5 Star pad - that is how I first found out what she has been doing. In the course of the "investigation", we have found she does this with many other companie's products. I don't want to see anyone else get ripped off! |

          Location: NW MT | You are very welcome! I HATE liars & thieves & this woman has been that for many years & has not changed obviously. Folks - LOOK at the page on FB ... she is very good - it will have many of the same things on it the "original" page has ... but it will link to her website AND the paypal is her personal one. I have MANY friends on here & on FB that have liked several of her fake pages & I KNOW they have not realized the pages are fake. |

This is why I don't "like" very many pages on FB. If I don't know you or your practices I won't "like" your page, I don't care if I am 'put into a drawing to win stuff" |

exactly-- has caused lots of heartaches and unnecessary trouble, because people air their dirty laundry and then get p.o'd if you reply with your opinion, which you are entitled to, that they don't like. |

  Location: Arkansas | BARRELRACER!! That is a pretty good clue!! LOL Type that in and see what comes up on Facebook.. She is taking deposits and does not have the product to sell period so, she keeps the deposit and you don't get what you ordered.. Others get what they ordered because she is a rep for some of the companies.. Just enough good to keep going.. |

There are people that have asked for a pm & then have msg'd me so I really do NOT have time to go through each to see who requested & who already have msg'd. Don't mean to be a PITA but I am extremely busy so I figure if it is important enough to know, you will ask. thank you!  |

| I ordered a Crown C from the lady she's working with and my saddle was over two months late. I was not happy. In addition to that, it wasn't what I ordered (I wanted 7/8th's tooled and paid GOOD MONEY to have my fenders tooled and ended up with roughout fenders - at least $200 cheaper. It'll cost me $600 to get a replacement pair) but I was so excited to finally get it that I let it go. I'm friends with both of them on Facebook. Didn't have a clue. Thanks for posting this Rocky! |
