Dear Mr. Parker Would you please send me a PM on my scales?

[joshb]

I have sent many PMs to you. I have sent you 3 scales and a check for the $300+ for the work, which was cashed. That was 7 months ago. Can you PLEASE let me know when they will be sent.
I promised three friends that they would get the scales this summer. I have heard nothing from you. Please respond! I am an upstanding member here. I honor my obligations. I am getting a bit perturbed by your lack of communication! I have done my part of the deal but all I get is crickets.

Good luck!!

I cant beleive anyone send that dude anything. Buy a fx120i and be done. I dont understand why anyone wants a beam scale vs the fx120i set up now days.

He seems to only respond to threads praising his work ....

Shoulda called me first pardner- coulda told ya- also 300.00 seems a little cheap, so mabie it would help to sweeten the pot a little. I think Scott has 8 kids so hes a busy man.

he will sometimes respond to the Squeekiest Wheel and get their scale out.

Josh is a generous mentor who has helped more than few guys enter the sport. These were for some of those people and it wouldn't make much sense for those just starting out to own the FX let alone buy three of them to give away.

Mr. Parker may do good work but I can't understand why he continues to take in more work if he is so far behind. It really seems like the exact same scenario as Sharp Shooters Supply. The quality of the work is irrelevant if you show your customers so little respect and consideration.

Josh is a generous man thats true. For guys starting out he should have just given them the scales. He certainly meant well.

Ah that makes more since. I wouldnt reccommend an fx to a newbie either, but still wouldnt use this guy...

If youve been on this forum for more than a month, youve seen a thread about him.

If you know the issues and still use him you shouldnt post on here complaining. He aint gonna change his business practices.

Yes. These are gifts to three new shooters entering the world of reloading. I’ve mentored them for a couple years. I gathered a bunch of presses , tricklers and such last fall. Some members here were more than generous with their offerings. I bought the scales and sent them to Scott, who promised a quick turn around on a scale. When I sent him 3, I expected a longer time frame. After numerous unanswered PMs, I’m at my wits end. I would just like “some” answer on a time frame. These guys have time on their hands to practice the craft. I wish I could give them an answer!

I’m left with no other options.

if you make enough noise on here, like youre doing that does help often. i hope these guys have had a scale to use in the meantime. If they dont better get them a different scale and sell the others when you get them.

like you say if youve been on here awhile you should know how Scott operates and what to expect but sometimes you need to motivate him somehow to get your scale back. if posting on here does it then So Be It

I gave one guy my old scale. He’s using it and we talk on the phone weekly. It was going into winter and the other 2 guys were very appreciative of what they got and said they happily would wait. It’s getting embarrassing to keep telling them to “wait, they’re coming.”

I’m not trying to make noise here. I’m just hoping Scott sees my post and answers it.

He has a business practice or a SOP?

You need to do a @sparker

 

[DirtySteve]

@sparker may gain his attention. He does good work but he should not take on work if he can not or will not complete it in a reasonable time period. I have a buddy who sent him a scale years ago... He is still waiting...
