Based on some of the posts the SimonLam incident seems to be a little up in the air, but one thing you can't argue with is pictures. Even if the warranty covers a refinish on the wheels, peels like that, will it happen again in 9 months or less?
Something obviously not right here, let's see how the layers get peeled back. Did I make a funny?

Yep. That kudos I gave earlier has flown the coop.

Can you elaborate in more detail on the current capital position with respect to the prior owner(s). Did this 'acquisition' result in them being completely removed from the business operationally? Can "Mr. Bling" decide that it looks like the ski conditions in Vegas look promising, blow a few dozen stacks and uproot your best intentions to rebuild the company or are these parties now completely out of the picture?
Good luck

Mr. Bling in now way has any % ownership whatsoever. He and Big Bird have just as much ownership interest. He is off doing another venture from what I have heard. So the answer is NO, he will not be skiing with anyone deposits, at least from a Forged Distributing product perspective.

I am not interested in these wheels or this company with QC problems AND potential customer service issues on warranty replacements for bad quality coatings.
The CLS wheel issue should be resolved publicly as part of the "saving face" campaign you're on. It will only help your cause to strengthen the Forged name if the CLS owner is taken care of with wheels that actually last this time.
I love the looks of the wheels but geez...issues.
