    Yes! I did mention them a ways back, but who could possibly read all this? When I first saw their hardware selection, it blew my mind. I had no idea. Is there anything they don't have?

    Yeah, what a bunch of jerks. One time they sent me the wrong thing and it took over 60 seconds on the phone to get it resolved. Then they had the gall to tell me to keep what they sent and quickly sent the right thing.

    Would the Grizzly catalog fry a Kindle due to its size?

    Just thought they would be a great reference for someone 50 years from now.

    Craig, I suggest you stick your credit cards in some water and put them in the freezer now. You have been warned.

    Does Grizzly make a nice heavy duty frig/frezzer for the shop? Id like the 36" extension table for chips and salsa. Be a no brainer in the polar bear line.

    There, fixed that for you

    Thanks Jaze. Actually, not even "entirely true" at all.

    Does anyone know if Grizzly is imported down here in Australia? Is it rebranded as another name?

    Thanks

    I assume because it looked negative to Grizzly when in fact it was not.

    I do have a big gripe to air with Grizzly there are just 3 weeks left in 2010 and the 2011 catalog isn't here!

    All joking aside wasn't it about 2 weeks into the year when they start arriving?

    Glad they changed the title actually... I almost didn't read it, thinking it was just another person abusing the freedom of the internet to post negative comments without fair hearing of both sides... I'd guess that for every person who actually reads the thread and realizes it's pro-grizzly, there are 50 who read the title and go away thinking Grizzly did something wrong and is being bashed.

    Funny thread and all, but when I first read it, what came to mind was "Dude...seriously, if you have a problem with Grizzly, is this the way to handle it?" Of course, I'm of the opinion you don't engage in negative feedback with a "bashing thread" for any company. Only reason I read the thread is because I was surprised Dan Hintz would post such a thread--glad I was right

    Of course, none of that turns out to apply, it's a funny and enjoyable thread we all relate to, and there was much rejoicing. And with the thread-title change, now Grizzly doesn't end up getting unconsidered and unintended negative consequences. Good job mods!
