Title: Bear Block?? Anyone talk to them lately??
Post by: BattlestarGalactic on December 10, 2019, 11:11:25 AM

I'm being contacted by the freight company for payment for shipping my block back in July(which I paid BBM on my CC).  Seems BBM is not responding to them.  I've sent emails and multiple calls with no results.

Got a sudden call from Doug telling me that the shipping bill is paid.  Good news.  Not sure why it took three weeks since my first contact?

Did they say they have blocks in stock?  Out of curiosity, how much was shipping? Was the transaction good overall?  Thanks, been looking for a while.

I don't know if he has any blocks right now.

Overall the transaction was good, back in July.  One call and I had the block in a few days.    It just went sideways a few weeks ago when the trucking company came after me for shipping since they couldn't get a hold of Doug.  I started to get concerned because my work would be on the hood for a substantial penalty(I had it shipped to my work since we deal with big stuff every day).

Shipping to Ohio was $215, he charged $350.  I didn't complain about that once you figure in all the incidentals like handling and crating.  The trucking company was going to charge $1400 if the bill was not paid!!   Doug did take care of it.

I called them on October 21st, as they had previously told me blocks would be available September (June 10). They did not say much other than the new date is January.

He had 2 in July, that is why I bit the bullet and bought one of them.
