I'm tring to save you money and time...DO NOT do business with this person. 1 March ,08 I sent my money to purchase two M101 Canadian 1/4 Ton Military Trailers, $ 1900.00, through paypal. As of Today 27 July ,08. NO trailers or refund from purchase. E-mails are not returned and communication is non-void. Last e-mail I had after several request to either deliver or refund my money, agreement was there would be a refund...NOT. Please post this to other sites to avoid anybody else getting ripped-off like I did.

I originally tried to buy mine through her in 2006. I could tell right away that I didn't want to do business with her ($ 300 for a spare tire and everything was on her terms)...thank goodness I found a fellow mudder (thanks, Todd!) who was above board and shipped me 3 of them within a week.
So where is this person / business located?
USA, Canada, Japan, ?

I think she is in Montreal.
Has anyone turned her in for fraud and/or theft to the RCMP or other authorities?
Sounds like it's time for a road trip! (Louisville slugger in hand)
Be persistant, pound her with daily emails and phone calls. It took five months, but I finally got my trailer. She's a real pain to deal with, but the trailers are in good shape.

I paid for mine in May of last year, and didn't receive it until December. While Michele is incredibly slow, if you keep bugging her, you'll get your trailer.
The problem is, she waits until she has enough trailers going to one area before she ships them. Yes, her communication sucks. Yes, she's horrible to deal with. Yes, you will receive your trailer on her schedule.

Not sure why you refer to a "her" but the michel i meet is a guy.
I went to see him, 2 weeks ago.
If you want a trailer, put your trust on me and i'll go pick it up for you. And for a small fee i'll tow it to plattsburg, from there you do your arrangement or you send a truck/shipping company pick the item at my business.
I will tho, foward him this thread. I've wheeled with the guy a couple of time, he seemed ok, but hey, you never know.
And BTW he just quoted my a trailer for 750$, local pickup tho.
Or maybe i'm just mixing someone here.

The she runs the show on the phone and I think her husband does the grunt work . I have never spoken to anyone other then Michele and I bought 55 from her .
Yep 55
well more like 54 and still waiting on the last one
The 1st time she sent me trailers she shorted me 2 then when It was suppost to show I only got 1 extra and was missing the another. Most of the tires with the trailers had 10% left on them (unlike the 90% stated ) and a few were unusable (holes, no tread left) but the spares were better .
Hell, send me $600 and you can pick the last one up from her so I dont have to deal with her anymore (not like she gets back to me anyhow
)I now proudly own one of those beauties...I spent a few minutes looking at the picture and I can't tell which one it is, but it's in there somewhere!
I seem to remember in my early days of dealing with Michele some guy's name was in the return email address or something. I think her husband/partner is Michel maybe? Seems like a strange coincidence, but you never know.

It is some where in that pile but remember that the 1st 9 there are 3 rows deep
Dang! That is a lot of 'em!
I got mine form Koffer on a group buy. If he has any left save the time and headache and just get it from him I got mine about 2 years ago and I had to very little work to it. I just need to get it ready for my long camping trip to Arizona next year. Hopfuly Ill get to meet some of the Mud member and go wheeling with them, but that will be another thread
