That is one of many threads about the subject. If you're not a member you may not be able to read it.
It seems as though, Trick went belly up owing many suppliers and customers money. He then was selling off the rest of his supply on Ebay.

From what I hear he owes alot of people money and screwed over alot of people before he went under.

Funny that the website is still up. http://www.trickmarine.net/index.cfm
Fred pissed me off a couple of years ago when he sold me some battery boxes (they were very nice), but told me he had step plates made for them that were out getting powdercoated and would be available the next week. After months of me inquiring about them, he told me they were never produced. The whole reason I went with the battery boxes I did was to get one's with step plates.
Left a bad yaste in my mouth, and I never did anymore business with trick.

You are lucky all you got was that bad taste in yo mouf, he owes some manufacturers thousands from what i understand, he should have known that you don't make unsure promises in this industry that you can't guarantee 110%
