I'm really impressed with all the great public supprt for the deal that Don & Seth have put together however I need to report that there are 2 or 3 VERY hostile members and suppliers that we all deal with., I'm not going to mention names here, but they will know that I know who they are when they read this. I'm not just talking about "trash talk" I'm talking about threats, as foul a language as you can imagine and more. If these individuals are afraid of compition and free trade then they should get out of the business. Are they afraid? If I were afraid of the new "young guns" that have come and GONE in my business I would have gotten out long ago but it just made me work harder. If these people continue with their harasment of Don and his family then I will ask the moderator for approval to give out their names.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK DON AND DON'T LET ANYONE INTIMIDATE AND FRIGHTEN YOU OFF. Those of us that know these people will cease doing business with them

Competition is Good.
Competition to make parts/supplies will drive the prices Down, Not UP.
Sure wish they would Unload a fuel alternative that works better & cheaper than gasoline !

I have dealt with Don in the past and think he is a stand up guy.

I'm fairly new in this Gas Pump Hobby, but I have had several deals with Don & His family in the past several months and He is the Best of the Best as far as I am concern. Cash & Cathy aka Gas & Soda 4 Me.

Don's Mom and Dad didn't raise a dummy. For those who are sniping, where were your brains when Seth said he was throwing in the towel? Apparently not in gear. I can't say the same for Don. He saw a terrific opportunity for himself and made it happen. Kudos.

I have never understood why any business person would "bad mouth" a competitor. All it does is call oneself into question. Let one's products and customer service speak for the individual and their business. With competition comes not only better pricing and customer service, but better casting and products. Those with "shoddy" business pratices will fall by the wayside and the hobby will be better for it. Again, my .02 worth of bs... lol

I've only done my one and only pump, a Wayne 70.... This was a few years back, when I was looking for a few parts.... I talked with Don through emails... Although I didn't buy any parts from him, he offered me any advice/information I needed. That in itself speaks volumns with me.

Go get-em Don, don't worry about the bugs in life.

Don and Lynn are the best of the best... I've known them for quite a while and they run a fair and honest business. Don't hesitate to call them with any question or request. Don't hesitate to order from them... I promise you will not be dissapointed.
Please don't hesitate to haunt me if you are.
