Normally we would not post in a competitor's thread, but LIC's comments are borderline bashing.

Rather than doing a run around about your comments and taking a thread back from the dead that had nothing to do w/ you or your shop.

All I can say is...you should thank me.....as every email and conversion conversation that ends up on my desk or phone gets reffered to you and aerosims.

wow you are a retard

why would you bump an 8 month old thread to plug your janky business and bash a good one?

good luck, business ethics is a key factor when a person is choosing a shop and you have proven to not have any.

Whatever, this is just a perfect example of what RS25.com is becoming. Everyone just bashes on everyone elses stuff...its NASIOC all over again.
