Same thing happened to me, right after I gave him a deposit for a custom tent on 2/5/15. Please let me know if you find anything out.

The dude was supposedly getting hitched this summer; might be on a honeymoon. Other than that, no clue.

Okay... Here's the deal...

I started talking with Brian on a couple of tents via PM on 2/22/15... We went over some drawings and discussed options via phone and came to a conclusion on 2 designs... He had the material in stock and stated he could start on them right away... Brian quoted me a price on both tents and on 02/24/15 I sent full payment of $935 to Brian via USPS Money Order... Shortly after I went on a "Mary Kay Retreat" and asked Brian if we could continue communications via email as I would not have a cell phone or internet but upon an occasional return to an FOB would be able to check email... Fast forward to 06/01/15, upon my return to the Love Shack, going through my mountain of packages I did not see any from WyomingLostandFound, aka: Brian's Company... I sent out a PM here, email, FB messages to both the WyomingLostandFound page and his Brian Templar page with no replies... I called the phone numbers I had for him and received a message that this user was not taking calls at this time...

Needing these tents for the upcoming scouting/hunting season, and getting no communication from Brian, I ended up purchasing a small wall tent and a LW pack tent from a Sporting Goods store in Albuquerque on 06/03/15... On 06/04/15 Brian emailed "hi... i am working on the trailer tent asap... i can ship the other one out this week"... Explaining the situation, lack of work done and lack of communication I asked Brian for a refund on 06/05/15...

After a few more emails asking on the status of a refund Brian finally replied on 06/11/15 the following "ok... i will get you the refund mailed back or paypal if you want...."
I replied with my mailing address as I don't do the paypal thing... On 06/20/15 I emailed Brian again as I had not received a refund yet or any other communications... Sent a couple more emails and on 06/22/15 Brian replied with this... "i am sending you 950.00 this week"...

As of today, 06/27/15 I have not received a refund or any further communication from Brian... I have 6 different phone numbers for him, all of which are never answered by a human and voicemails are never responded to...

So much for the big business plan and the change of life style...

This assclown is no more than a scam artist at this point in time... I'm always willing to help out an up and coming small company selling good American made kit... Obviously in this case, clownshoes is willing to take hard earned money from people to benefit himself with no intention of delivering the product that was paid for...

Tanner... I'd look elsewhere for a tent my young Brother... I'd hate to see you donate your cash to a worthless f u c k like Brian...

I'm sure Amanda is proud... Karma is a bitch and a Fool reaps what he sows...

some real [bleep] out there..... some just don't understand that running a business that actually produces real good stuff takes time and life gets in the way sometimes... kneejerk reactions are not very mature and neither is acting like a brat when you don't get your way. refund is coming dickface....


for those that are patiently waitng for their stuff... i am catching up.... 2 weeks in a burn center and various other life struggles have cut into my production but i am not and never will throw in the towel. i enjoy what i do and it takes time. i only have 2 hands and 1 brain

Hmmm, EHG pays you for goods in February. You produce no product nor a refund to this date and EHG is a brat and a dickface.

Your business model and CS will draw investors like flies.

You might give some thought to improving the customer service department, and take a look in the mirror while speaking the words above.

EHG is good to go in my experience, is very reliable and appears to have given you ample opportunities to respond to his attempts at communication.

If you dropped the ball, own it, make it right, and work on keeping customers happy.

The best way to find a new customer is to have a satisfied previous customer share their recommendation.

Fixed it for you....

People understand that quality products take time but communication is key. It's too bad that this is the path you chose to take on this deal. I was hoping you'd make it...

You're a real POS. Now you're calling EHG out after you screwed him out of big money. He's not the one that's screwed up. You are. Get used to being a loser. That's all you'll ever be at best.

Is this some kind of 9'er slang for I spent 2 weeks in jail for parole violations.

You'd think for guy wanting to get his business off the ground he would have handled this way differently.

So many ways the seller could have made this right and yet he chose the low road...

I've seen this same scenario happen a number of times on the ol'interweb over the years. A guy comes up with a decent product or service idea and tries to make a go of it, yet absolutely sucks at communication, customer service, handling money, and being honest. A few potential customers get burned and the sellers rep and business is in the toilet.
