    Anyone have any dealings with this company? I ordered new discs, been charged on my credit card, no discs, no return phone calls, now message box is full. I wonder if I am the only one.

    Let me know.

    Thanks

    I have had trouble contacting Bob as well. I liked his parts but thier service needs a LOT of work. I usually buy thier stuff through Bob Molinari at MRP. He has not been able to get a hold of them either.

    There's something strange happening there, I'm glad that there are other suppliers that are reliable...

    He had the plug pulled on him.

    Mr. Malek has been put out of business by his partner. Mr. Malek owed him so much money and had told him so many lies that the actual owner locked him out and sold everything to Boninfante.
    I understand Mr. Malek was into him for 7 figures, and had not made a single payment and owed everyone in town and all over the world money. He was taking orders for product he did not have and didn't have the resources to make.
    Could have been a wonderful thing, but they had the wrong guy running the show.
    Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
    I wouldn't hire him to run a fry station at a burger joint.

    That would be the one.. I sure wish they would have left Ace off the list of his "history".

    Patty flipper again

    Just heard this guy is flipping patties again. Apparently another company was duped by his lies.
