You nailed it. We need let them know we are waiting and then just sit and run what we have now. alan Lambert ________________________________ From: Michael <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2013 4:25 PM Subject: Re: {S-Scale List} MTH in spring Well when you have a big company, such as MTH saying that there would be something out in December and nothing. Then again early January, and nothing. It's only fair to call and find out what's going on. Now I understand all about the set up and how all that goes. However where are all these people getting all these ideas of what they are going to come out with, when as it appears they themselves don't even know what they are coming out with. They said spring, and now I'm done worrying about MTH and whatever they will or will not do until spring. If I don't see anything by April, then I will call again. It's that easy. Oh and by the way, this is the second time I've called them. The first was shortly after they announced they had purchased SHS, and that was to congratulate them on purchase such a high quality line of product, and to let them know I was looking forward to seeing their first wears! If these companies now a days DON'T hear from there consumers, they will assume that there is no interest in their products and they will produce NOTHING! I say rattle their cages and make them accountable for the things they say at shows, in emails and phone conversations. Just ask Jim King. It works, but you have to be polite about it and not just demanding.
