I brought it up in the jet forum several months ago, which at least got a response in the form of PM promises to pay his bill. Then nothing. For months now. In the mean time I see posting about going to the river Mem day, July 4, etc etc etc. I'd much rather solve these types of issues off the forum but this one has just gone nowhere and my patience like I said has expired with promise after promise of unfulfilled payment of this debt.

Oh really? You know this how? I don't think he would stiff someone for 21/2 years making promises over and over but never following through. If that was the case, he wouldn't be in business now would he? It looks to me like he has given this guy more than enough time to pay his debt. For him to have the balls to post about going to the river having a grand ole time knowing he has this debt and Mike would see the posts is beyond stupid so he deserves to have this posted here.

Really Greg, is that so?
For your info I have addressed many negative threads on this and other forums regarding Rex Marine over the past several years. I have never closed or pulled one nor have I asked ***boat to do so just because I'm an advertiser and could easily make that phone call, or just push a button myself for that matter.
I can furnish you with several links to these threads should you decide I'm full of shit. While I may be full of shit when bantering with Tom Brown I'm not on this one. ;)
Perhaps you're just pissed because I banned you awhile back for posting inappropriate material in a hot spots west thread, then after your wife pleaded with me on your behalf about how you just couldn't live without being on ***boat or some shit, reinstated you early. :idea:
And further, how am I different from any other board member on here that members support because they got their ass ripped by someone? Just because I happen to own a marine shop or ***boat had the trust in me to make me one of the volunteer moderators, does that make it ok if someone rips me off?

A hypocrite about what Greg? I have not deleted Rex Marine threads. I respond to them and suck it up if Rex Marine did something wrong and conversely will defend it if whatever the allegations are, are bullshit.
I have not deleted threads about others having trouble getting paid by other members, in fact there's a couple I pinned in the spam forum right now. I really don't like thieves and flakey people that dodge paying their bills.
I have not deleted threads of others criticizing other manufacturers (although ***boat probably has). I am not ***boat. I don't agree with everything ***boat does. But then again I don't own ***boat so it doesn't matter what I agree with and don't agree with. I am a member here just like everyone else that happened to be chosen as a moderator to enforce ***boats forum guidelines. I'm just another guy trying to get paid after trying all other off-forum methods including having him dodge getting served with small claims notice.
How does that make me a hypocrite? Should I not get paid because I'm a moderator here? Should I not get paid because I'm in the marine business? Should I not be allowed to post a thread like any other member here seeking justice from another forum member?
Please elaborate. I'm all ears.
Or do you just not like me because I banned you for posting inappropriate content awhile back per ***boat's rules so now you feel the need to call me names because the king didn't get to violate the rules and get away with it. If that's the case then you're the hypocrite. As it was you that had your wife plead with me to lift the ban (which I did) and you profusely thanked me and promised no more trouble. As I remember it wasn't long until I had to lock or remove something else you posted.

Same sitiuation here, my wifes friend called needing 1k, had it to them in less then 2 hours. promised to pay it back when thier settlement came in(ya right). 18 months later, 60k settlement came and went and guess what still haven't seen my 1k.

I'd be interested in hearing your explanation of why a business owner (which is probably half the folks on this forum, many of which have posted similar threads and had nothing but support) shouldn't use the forum as a last resort to collect money like anyone else.
Or is it just because I'm in the ever so lucrative "marine" business. http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/thumbs/732hilarious.gif
Does being a business owner somehow restrict your rights in some manner I'm not aware of? Or is you vision of business owners all being rich where they should just suck it up. Perhaps you'd like to exchange jobs and salaries with me and experience for yourself the wonderful and extravagant lifestyle and short hours most small business owners enjoy for a year or two. ;)
The subject at hand (Jetovator) as ignored collection attempts, dodged being served for small claims, promised after being called out here before to pay his bill (which I have proof of and if necessary will produce it), and now again has totally ignored the debt for months, while in the mean time having no problem spending dough on rec. What would your suggestion be to get paid 3:30? I'd love to hear it.
And while I'm sure the forum would enjoy hearing about why I fired the guy that would be crossing the line both professionally and probably legally so I won't go there. But I'm sure you'd get a hoot out of it.
Bingo! That's OK, he'll realize that soon enough and yank the thread.
Another weak attempt to divert attention from question asked and take another cheap shot. No problem Greg. I'm a great target I guess. And one with a long long memory.
You're a business owner too Greg as I recall from your apology PM (yes I still have it) to me after I shortened your ban for posting porn against forum rules. All your posting is certainly made in the utmost professional manner. :)

I'd be interested in hearing your explanation of why a business owner (which is probably half the folks on this forum, many of which have posted similar threads and had nothing but support) shouldn't use the forum as a last resort to collect money like anyone else.
Or is it just because I'm in the ever so lucrative "marine" business. http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/thumbs/732hilarious.gif
Does being a business owner somehow restrict your rights in some manner I'm not aware of? Or is you vision of business owners all being rich where they should just suck it up. Perhaps you'd like to exchange jobs and salaries with me and experience for yourself the wonderful and extravagant lifestyle and short hours most small business owners enjoy for a year or two. ;)

Deadbeat or not I think as a business owner of a well known marine business you would show much more integrity by dealing with this outside of a forum. I personally do not think it is right for anyone to post things of this nature on an internet forum, business owner or not.
I would love to change jobs with you. You can be up for 24hrs at a time, dealing with heroin overdoses, cry babies, crackheads, and put your life on the line for a minimal amount of money. :devil:
You obviously run a very succesfull business and im sure this is not the first time this has happened. How do you handle these situations with people who dont post on hot boat? I think that is the answer to your question of how to handle it.
Just my opinion...doesnt really mean much.:D

I appreciate the response 3:30. Seriously do.
I don't like resorting to posting this kind of thing because I think business should be conducted off the forum when at all possible and only do as a last resort as I've described in the above posts. What would I do with someone outside the forum you ask? At this point probably lose the money as I've tried everything else that's legal with this guy. I'd venture to say though that most our customers are on this or other forums at least to a degree. Certainly not all though.
I also did not mean to come across as disrespecting your profession. I think that sometimes folks just automatically assume biz owners are ballers made of dough which is more the exception than the rule. That was my reason, in jest, for that part of my post.

I am going to chime in here, becuase I have been the object of some of his more angry posts. While I try hard to Respect Mike, he does run a good business, at least for the short time I had working with his guys, I never had one, and I mean NOT ONE problem with Rex Marine, I was amazed at how he made it a point to post some VERY personal stuff about me on the internet. Granted, I did not owe him money at the time, nor had I done what this other person did. That said, I do feel Mike, that when you get angry, or upset with someone, you tend to air it in a very public way. Even though our disagreement was a VERY public spectacle, and still is, you had no right to post the vast majority of things you did about me, stuff the that was, to me, highly personal. I am not going to judge you here for doing this, but I will say this. You are Rex marine, what you do and say can and does affect peoples perception of not only Rex marine, but of you, tread lightly on that water.
One last thing....if he owes you personally the money, thats one thing, but, if he owes Rex Marine Inc. the money, you should not be doing this...let the corp. do it's own dirty work..thats what they are for....

Lighten up Francis....:rolleyes:
It would appear, that said business owner did everything in his power, to recoup the money owed him..In my opinion, he has been way more than patient.
If it were me that was owed money, I would do every single thing in my power to collect it...Everyone's money is hard earned, and no one has the right to withhold owed money.....I am glad this was brought out into this forum.....I learn who NOT to ever do business with. In my opinion, your right to have me as a business owner, treat you with respect, and act within your definition of .."integrity" ...expired when the bill didnt get paid....

As far as Rex Marine vs personal, I am Rex Marine. I post here both personally and as Rex Marine, hence the name Rexone.
And I'm not angry or upset. Just out of patience with Mr Jetovator.
As far as the perception thing I think it goes both ways. I treat people fairly, help whenever possible, often not getting paid for it, etc. In turn when I get someone like this I have no problem using this forum to get paid, just as many have used this forum to address issues with Rex Marine. See I'm not afraid of the forum like many marine business owners are. I respect the people on it for the most part and think most respect me likewise for participating, helping, solving problems Rex related or otherwise, etc. I've made friends here that would not have made otherwise and that has great value to me. In turn am one of the few in the marine industry that are pretty accessible to anyone. One thing as you know BNB, unlike some I won't take shit from anyone that's undeserved. Be that good or bad as far as perception that's just the way I operate.

Honestly, because many jet boats don't cost much to begin with. Anyone with a couple of grand tax return and a 1/2 ton truck can pick one up.As for the K I N G . . . sounds like sour grapes. I've seen Mike leave up many threads bashing RexMarine, including BoatsnBibles ridiculous thread.

Interesting.
I'm trying to think of a business owner more upstanding and professional than Rexone. I can't think of anyone. Seriously.
Anyone?
BTW ,
This Summer Rexone went out of his way to fix an obsolete liquid filled speedo for me so I didn't have to spend $400.00+ on a new GPS unit. The thing came back looking brand new.
I really appreciated his time and his effort. It did take some effort on his behalf, it would have been much easier for him to tell me "No we can't fix that" RexMarine hadn't fixed one in over two years and all of the equipment to do it was still in moving boxes.
My only complaint now, is I didn't get the 24 months same as cash treatment:( ...:idea:
Thanks again Mike ....:D :D :) :)

The money is owed to Rex marine and not you personally? ... If that is the case then it should be pursued in a legal fashion....its your right to do what ever you feel necessary.... I by no means know the legality of running a business ...
I love the way you're telling Rexone how to run his business. Is this coming from years of successfully running a similar business or are you a pompous ass?
Gotta say... anyone who has run a small to medium size business knows there is no line between personal and business. You are the business and the business is you. You're working 24/7 and everything you do is a reflection of both the owner and the business.
I've never met anyone who was on a level that allowed them to run their business as openly as Rexone does.
The rest of HB doesn't need to see BnB and I bicker.
Can't say I agree with you there... :D
Honest to God Ali, she is by far the most irritating woman I have ever had the misfortune to come across..
I consider My Man's Sportin' Wood to be one of the classiest, most interesting, and well respected members here. She has my respect. :cool:

There's been a few guys on here I've had some major disagreements with that now resolved we again do business with.

Tom what the fock would a Canuck know about business in America?? Who are you to say how to do things down here and how NOT to do them...I think you shouldstick to what you know. Which is...
1. Irritating Byron. (keep up the good work, he's convinced you hate him, I think you do..:D )
2. Irritating Hooli (Who doesn't?)
3. Being just plain irritating (Formerly the realm of the bench racers, it hs spread like a cancer)
4. Irritating for the sake of irritating (Your now in great company, you and Jordy should get along great...)

No one seems to understand this flake WAS an employee and as such was given a smoking deal on the parts and pieces he needed. Fast forward, I would guess Mike was taking payments on the parts from the flake's wages. OK, been there done that many times. Mike has PAID for those pieces from the manufacturer, either special order, or stock on the shelf, Mike paid. Now the flake does something, whatever it was, that resulted in him no longer working there. He has the parts he wanted at cost. Did I mention Mike paid for the parts?.....So to keep the payroll records seperate from the sales, as required by the tax board, Mike pays him what he has coming with the promise of the flake coming back to square up the part's AT COST deal. Did I mention Mike has already PAID for these parts?......The flake flees, the flake dodges any attempt to be summoned into court, the flake continues his lifestyle as though he is wealthy, even posting stories about his watersports trips here. The flake tells Mike he will pay him for the boat stuff he got at COST as an employee, the same stuff Mike has PAID for.........Mike is not in business to buy parts for employee's boats, but will give the employee a deal as an employee perk.......The flake still hasn't paid a nickle. Mike out of frustration posts his request for payment here on HB......Figuring maybe he can embarrass the flake into paying for the boat parts that Mike has already PAID for. Have I got a handle on this?..........Now some people here feel it was un professional of Mike, Rexone, to try to collect the debt........Remember, this was not a customer, this was an employee, which changes everything, even legally, if this flake ever shows up in court.
That said, Mike has always responded above and beyond the call of business any time any one here needs that type of personal service, myself included. The people that have a personal vendetta with Mike are out of line to fault him in this attempt to collect the money for the parts he PAID for. Rexmarine and Mike might be two different pockets, but they are in the same pair of pants........Mike, do you need Guido's phone number? He gets 100% as a fee, but he adds it on to the debtor's end.............Ray

Rexie, can Shockwavebob and I have him now? It's time the rat learned the meaning of INTEGRITY.
Every one of you has been subjected to my rants about honesty, integrity, dealing fairly with others, etc., for quite a few years now so I'm not going to bore you again. Rexone has been more than fair with everyone he deals with and it really takes someone that goes over the line to get him upset enough to post on the open internet. He has a conscience and when he doubt's himself the decision goes to the customer.
A person that I'm acquainted with was bad mouthing Rex Marine in my presence a few years back and I'm sorry to say that I intervened with Mike. This person did the bad-mouth beligerent bs, gave him all sorts of crap and didn't have the guts to even face him. Instead he sent his girlfriend down to the shop to return parts. The device (mufflers) were ruined when returned(something like a year later) and Mike was gracious, hence he gave away $800 bucks just trying to keep a customer happy knowing full well that this clown probably wouldn't be back.
I won't intervene for anyone anymore.
I'm not going to tell you that Rexie is living in a cardboard box which is really nobodies business but no business (man) deserves to be cheated by dishonest customers and or employees. He's been building this business for over half his life now and I don't think you'll find another person that's as accessible as Rex that takes some of the guff that he takes. He has had the hurt put to him BIG TIME by unethical employees in the past but you don't read about it here.
As for BnB, he had a gripe with MSD and thought Rex should basically eat the problem between Msd and BnB. First of all, there's not much profit in Msd products so Rex is basically just a go between. If Msd says no they won't cover their own product then Rex would suffer the lose even if BnB installed the product wrong. Fair that Rex takes the hit, I don't think so. If BnB felt that strongly about it he should continued his feud with MSD.
Rex has sustained planned attacks by Squirten Thunder and his co harts in crime designed to do nothing but damage his business. For what reason? They were bored and thought it would be fun. Do you think he shouldn't respond or defend himself??
I would think that there would not be one person on here that would toss in the chicken sh*t criticism that Rex has been subject to for the simple reason that when you owe something it's only right that you pay the bill or you wait til you can afford it. When a business takes a loss whether it's an individual or or larger it has to make up for that loss somehow and it usually comes as higher prices to the rest of us. Should we be subject to pay for a flake like Jet-O-vater so he can go to the river and drink beer?
I don't think so.
Personally, I think Mike deserves a sincere Thank You for being available to us just about anytime we have any type of question, problem, or what ever. YOU DON'T SEE THAT THAT FROM MANY OTHER PARTS SUPPLIERS and none that take the crap that Mike has.

DISCLAIMER......Rexie may have found forgiveness in his heart for squirten thunder but for his transgressions I never will.
Lets get this straight, one more time, for the record. I have dealt with Rex marine, off and on, for years, not only by myself, but with GS marine also. I have never, ever, ever had a problem with Mike, or his employees, ever, not once. When I bought the MSD system, the boat was not done, so it was "staged" if you will, in a closet at the house until the time came to install it. Are you guys following so far??
Fast forward several months later, the system is installed in the boat, the engine is tested, runs fine. We take it out to the lake to test it, and it fails. I t WAS NOT installed improperly, nor was it mishandled. It was simply a dud. According to Mike, this is normal, there is a certain percentage of the boxes that fail. OK, I'll buy that at this point. But at the time, I had a NEW box, with less than 15 minutes use on it, and it had failed. I called Rex, and was told there was nothing they could do. Now get this, and understand it you all...had this been a box that I had used for a much longer time...months, maybe years, my phone call to Rex would have been along the lines of "Send me a new box, please"....but because of the tiny amount of time, I thought they should NOT refund me, just replace it. Never happened, I took my business elsewhere, as is my right to do.
While I respect Mike immensely, and like him, I am sorry to say that the business side of things between us has ended. Which is sad, as he was, and still is a great source for parts, especially if you need it yesterday.
What I have said in this thread, and still say, is that things like this are beneath him...he should not have stooped to this level...but, this is his choice..I am walking in on this whole thing over two years later, and reacting to the story. Needless to say, while I may not think he took the best course to get his money back, I hope he does...whatever this guy did, to push him to this extreme, maybe he deserves this...
Thanks for your time and letting me clarify this whole mess a little......;)

Well BNB, you have "chosen" to bring the details of the MSD thing up again, which I feel is unfortunate. Unfortunate in the fact that one side of the story is told above. So in my interest in protecting myself and my business with regards to those who are not familiar with the MSD goings on and will likely read your post above thinking I'm an unreasonable asshole, you have now forced me to post the following link so those folks receive the entire story. Sorry man, no choice here. I will not debate the MSD issue further because I consider it a closed issue.

You misread it Mike, if anything, you educated me a lot about how things work "behind" the scenes at Rex during that debate...had I known at the time I could have taken it back to MSD, I would have....what I was trying to say, is that you are a standup guy, who I got mad at beacuse I did not understand the options as well as I should have.....(read that as, you were right, I was wrong) I just don't like folks still busting my nuts about it, so I was trying to explain it..theres no side here, I don't think....:D
And one last thing....and this is the Gods honest truth...i had no idea who you were, or that you were the owner of Rex from the moment I got on this site..I never put it together..had I known..our conversations might have been a lot different....I was just frustrated at that point..but I still maintain..that it sat in the box for nearly the entire time of the warrantee period....so I still have the damned box....suggestions anyone?? I think an M-80 strapped to it, and turn it into a miniature flowerbed, is a good place to strart......in any case, I never knew who you were..I never met you, or talked to you, all the years I did biz wit you..strange, huh?? Had I had the personal relationship with you, that say, HB, or JBB, or other had..maybe this would never have happened?? I would like to think so...

BNB,
Just so you don't think it is you. My brother and I carry an extra MSD in our spare parts box that we take to the river. We had one fail once, first 30 minutes in the water on a three day weekend:mad:
Also, a friend of mine named Bruce Crower built a killer Hot Rod 2 or 3 yrs ago. It's first public outing was to be at the GoodGuy's car show in Del Mar. Bruce get's his beautiful hand built car(he built everything for this car in his work shop including steel body panels) 1 mile from the gates at the show and the "F"ing MSD went out. The car had to be towed in:( Bruce was not to happy:mad: Shit happens.....

Thanks CP, but what I would like everyone to understand, is that this was my first rebuild for a boat. Next time, I will do a lot of things different, like buy the MSD last, so that it doesn't burn off it's warranty sitting on a shelf....I truly had no idea that I had done that....I guess I am so used to just getting a new one....but when It came to this, Rex didn't make the rules, MSD did....his hands were tied....I need everyone to know I UNDERSTAND THAT NOW....and please move on.....LOL....

Thanks again 3:30.
It is a tough spot and I knew before I posted this thread it might draw some fire. I actually considered it for several weeks before deciding to. That said I have no problem with the decision, or the resultant fire I may receive for it.
As far as Jetovator, he's admitted to me months ago he was a flake so I'm not really calling him anything he has not called himself in this case. Further, after he pays his bill (if he does) he is welcome to come in an do business again with us. I don't hold grudges over stuff like this once taken care of. He's not a bad guy, just a flake. In my mind there is a difference.
There's been a few guys on here I've had some major disagreements with that now resolved we again do business with. BNB, being one of the more vocal ones for example would still be welcome at Rex Marine if he ever chose to, even though we've had and still have some level of disagreement. There are others too in past years. I've been a few rounds here with several be it bad or good. I have no regrets at this point for operating much more publicly than many choose to.
OK I've read enough of this..... With my business I WOULD after 2 1/2 years do as credit card co's are doing... Write it off and 1099 the whole amount including interest.... Not at work so don't have what the interest would be but at 10% THE LEGAL amount to charge without a contract BUT it would be around $750 and let them deal with the IRS instead...

$600 cash...I agree but if you don't get it at the very least you can do something to him.
I had another employee clean a truck of many power tools over the course of two weeks. We figured out it was him and I fired him. Called the PD and they would not even open the guy's trunk. I was told it was a total civil matter.
A civil matter? So if I can get a judgment who can collect it? You can't even legally hold final wages as I found out that the hard way. EDD jumped me hard on that.
