Wink as a customer of M-Squad

No I speak as a very dissatisfied customer. M-Squad took me for $350.00 bucks three years ago, gave me a crappy set of magnetic FHP decals that did not fit. Would not return calls, would not answer emails etc etc etc. As I showed the car at shows, many on this site & org saw those crappy decals and gave very negative comments. I knew nothing of M-Squad and took the advise from members who had used them for their projects.

It took the guy three months after having my money, only call I ever got why it took so long was that his wife had a child. I had to threaten to either make the decals or send my money back.

Those decals have now been sold to another member & I am very happy with the quality of what the sign company did in Jeff City, Mo for $ 125.00 total.

Again you are the consumer, do as you wish.....Sam Walton said it best...The consumer will hire or fire you simply by spending your money elsewhere.

You paid $350??? WOW! I didn't pay that much for the last set of original FHP decals that I bought.

Definitely pricey.

I agree that is a pretty good lick for some decals. Especially since they already have the artwork in place to do it.

I have someone working on building a set of Michigan State Police decals for my 89 and 92. I could use the ones from M-Squad which I have seen and they look pretty good, but the ones they sell are not the correct decal for my older cars. I am hoping to get a couple of sets that are closer to the ones that were on my cars in service.

My FHP decals are the repops Mike had made. They are not exact, but they are acceptable (to me anyway).

I'm sorry you had a bad experience with them. I can't say that I've ever had a bad experience with M-Squad and I've got three different vehicles that I've done so far with excellent success.

I'll have to take it up with M-Squad about this though as it is troubling to hear this occurring. Thanks for the input.

I guess I got the real "rest of the story" now "Sam". I fully understand the situation now and will continue the use of M-Squad decals and will stand by their quality. Thanks.

Yes I can but off the board as I can tell this will cause a major rift here.

FYI M-Squad's wife hasn't had a kid in 18 years...

I personally saw mbe2598's (Jim) FHP decals that M-Squad did and they were horrible. I cannot imagine why they would not work with him to either replace them or refund his money.
