It is easy to be overwhelmed and impressed with this group but please BEWARE. I first chanced across them last summer, I was so impressed! Pictures of everyone in the music business for 50 years! Hundreds of Gold Records line the walls, it is like a Museum! The stories they tell are INCREDIBLE! You get sucked in but it is like a house of cards! I began to trust them loaning them some of my items with the promise that "You are part of the Family now". We are going to be Rich! It is so exciting, you want to believe it all! They told me they would get all of the local venues to order my products, millions of dollars! I am a simple man with a small business and after the past few years of struggling, it sounded too good to be true!
I dove in, cutting my prices to the quick because Dick promised me I was the one... When things began to look funny, locked doors, hiding, not answering phone calls. I asked around town and they are involved in lawsuits, even the bank sued them for not paying, lying about who was at fault.
I show up to the office one day to collect my samples and they had disappeared... I then find them at the location they are now, I heard the bank had them evicted, of course it is NEVER their fault!
I have spent the last 90 days digging in to them and their past, Dick is a 2 or 3 time convicted felon, he supposedly doesn't work there but that is BS, he and Ms. Susan are the tyrants that run the place. They sucked in this nice guy that used to work for the state, Darrell... He is their front man but seems smarter than that.
I found they are in lawsuits, their talent left them, they were supposed to buy some fancy club and backed out in shame, I heard grumblings of insurance fraud, money laundering... It goes on and on.
Just be warned, they are a Trojan horse, don't be sucked in without doing your homework!
I only lost a few hundred dollars worth of samples but it seems that many others lost much more!
I've been in this town for over ten years and they are the worst I've seen, don't believe me, do your homework!!!
