ARCHIVE February LED Light Bar Group Buy

[StAndrew]

Ive been discussing options with the FBI Fraud division starting today. We may have a case if he doesnt settle.

Also, JUST got off the phone with Troy, the man himself. He says he will be online this week and he seems eager to fix everything. Not like we havent heard that before , but.... Ill be optomistic; we'll see.

 

[bamabrock]

the time to "fix" it has passed. Yall need to proceed with criminal complaints.

Bravo! I have to ask, how did you get Troy on the phone?

Excellent to hear. I have absolutely no skin in this game, but I can't stand to see people taken advantage of, especially to this extent.

 

[tommy 90]

i am really interested in what he has to say.

Called his work

Not much really. Basically the same "Ill fix it" BS.

If we can get a list of complaints (missing lights/refunds with $$$ amounts), that will help either the investigation or Troy's comming clean. Started one on TW, lets see if we can get some guys here.

Also, look up your local FBI office and shoot them an email on your complaints. That will help speed things along if Troy continues to keep his silence.

There's already a list a page or two back.

I know quite a few agents at Langley, they're all in different divisions then what would handle this, but I've asked one of them to put me in touch with who I need to speak with. He agreed that the depth and scope is quite serious....are you reading this Troy?!

He's not going to fix any of this, guys has had months to fix this. He ripped those people off, he's a scumbag.

 

[StAndrew]

Ok, FBI investigation is moving, however, everyone missing lights/refund needs to submit a complaint here:

http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

 

[Fireguy]

So now that he knows the FBI is getting involved suddenly he wants to make things right? That is bull****. You don't get to steal people's money and get away with it, only to suddenly give it back when the FBI gets involved. So basically he is saying that because you guys decided to take it to the next level now he will make things right.

Agreed! You guys that got ripped off or are having warranty issues please go to the link that STAndrew posted and make sure this guy gets what he deserves.

Just got this in an email from Troy;

Hey Everyone,


I received a phone call from a forum member the other day about some members having missing items and some members trying to get warranty replacements.


Mea culpa, I apologize for not being around for the past few weeks.


I'd like to get everyone squared up in the next week or two. I have a small amount of leftover stock from which I'll ship warranty replacements through the end of July.


If you are missing something from your original order, please send me an email to sales@treklights.com in the following format, and I'll get your gear to you ASAP:


Subject:
Missing item from original order


Body:
Missing item name
Forum name
Your full name
Shipping address


---------------------------------


If you need a warranty replacement, please send an email to sales@treklights.com in the following format:


Subject:
RMA Request


Body:
Item(s) not working
Brief explanation of the issue you're experiencing
Forum name
Your full name
Shipping address


Once we determine what the issue is, I'll get a replacement sent out. The only thing you'll be responsible for is getting your malfunctioning light back to me.


---------------------------------


T shirts, stickers, additional accessories, and ongoing business


We made many mistakes throughout this project. Mistakes that killed the business. After paying for air freight and issuing refunds, our coffers are empty. We know that we said shirts and stickers would be going out, but unfortunately we have no money to buy this stuff. Trek Lights is out of business, and will not be making a comeback. If it makes anyone you feel any better, we're about $9,000 in the hole on this project. No money was made.


However, your manufacturer warranties are still valid one year from your purchase date. After July 30, warranty replacements will be done directly through the manufacturer. If you need a warranty replacement after July 30, you can follow the procedure above and I'll give you further instructions from there.


So sorry this turned out to be a clusterf@$*.


Please note:We know we screwed up. We know you'e angry. But please reserve this correspondence forum for actual missing items requests and warranty exchange requests. Threats, insults, etc. will be deleted immediately.

My response:

$198 via paypal ************@hotmail.com - I get my money back or I continue speaking with the FBI. Your choice, don't take this as a threat, it's a sincere and legitimate promise.
