Alan,

I can almost understand the "like" part. But, after the way they handled Ryan's situation, how can you ever get to "respect?"

They took a good customer, willing to pay big bucks for a photo, and told him to go pound sand! The picture in their catalog and on their web-site was clearly enhanced and demonstrably different in appearance than the one they shipped to him. Since this was a one of a kind item, the only conclusion possible is that they photoshopped it.


Can you "like" a guy like that? I guess... maybe, if he's never done anything to you. Can you "respect" someone who would do that, and then tell the customer that they won't work to resolve the problem? I will never be able to respect that. And what does having a "hell of a collection" have to do with anything? That's not the kind of thing that commands respect.
