Company: MOBILKRAFT, SA DE CV Date:  11/19/2009 
       
Comment: My name is Mauricio Ortiz, President of Mobilkraft, SA de CV, a furniture manufacturer in Monterrey, Mexico. A few weeks ago we purchased a used Rhodes finishing system from Ex-Factory and have just finished installing it and have initiated production runs through it. - This is an unrequested letter of congratulations and a thank you note that we have chosen to write to [Product Manager] and your Company for the very professional service we have received in the process of this purchase. - From the moment we started looking for a system in September of last year, [PM] guided us in every step. He convinced us of flying to Arizona to see a system we decided not to buy, but that helped us confirm it was the right path to take. He presented us with many choices and authentic counseling of what was convenient for us. He helped us negotiate to a point and conditions that we could all accept and benefit from. And he provided key technical information to help us understand the equipment and connected us to the right people to help with technical issues beyond his knowledge. - Without [PM’s] participation, this operation would probably not have happened and certainly not as smooth as it went. I ask him to also extend my gratitude to the seller of the equipment, ...for selling and shipping us exactly what they offered: a full finishing used system in good working conditions. Honesty should always be celebrated. -
To all, receive again our gratitude and also our wish and belief that your service will bring you great success in the future. - Mauricio J. Ortiz - President

   

Company: BROX FINE WOODWORKING Date: 8/30/2009 
       
Comment: Just a few comments surrounding my experience with EX-FACTORY. This was my first experience making a purchase through EX-FACTORY. I have had contact with EXF Sales Staff numerous times over the last year as I searched for several pieces of equipment. - I appreciate the EXF system and service very much and will continue to consult in the future when I am in the market for equipment. - Several comments regarding specific experiences. With the purchase of the Planer, I traveled to Zeeland to see the Planer before purchasing; an approx. 5 hour drive. I liked what I saw and made a deal on the spot. Making the staff in Zeeland aware that this was my first purchase from stateside, and based on the email ads of EXF regarding providing Canadian Customs Brokerate Services, I was counting on the staff to do what was necessary and inform me of what was needed from myself to have a smooth and trouble-free shipping experience. - It didn't quite happen; there were a few glitches, nothing serious, but somewhat stressful for myself being the first experience of this type. Certainly, it was my lack of experience, and now I know how the system works, but I am disappointed in the communication from staff regarding the transportation across border. They should have this down to a science if they are doing it regularly. - Bill Brox
   

Company: HBNT CO. Date:  6/6/2009 
       
Comment: EX-FACTORY had what I wanted at the price range I wanted. I was amazed at the quality and full description of the machines that were listed on the website. Thank you for your help. - C. E. Reed
   

Company: HILLTOP AROMATIC CEDAR, LLC Date: 12/30/2008 
       
Comment: Everything was all right, except I couldn't get Product Manager to answer calls & email.
   

Company: SLAVA'S CUSTOM FURNITURE & DESIGN INC Date:  11/25/2008 
       
Comment: This time was my second experience buying equipment from EX-FACTORY. Both times I've dealt with the same Product Manager, who truly helped me to achieve my goals in this pruchse. The PM was always there to help immediately with any questions I had, helped to get as much as possible information about the machine and tried to make this deal worthwhile for both seller and buyer. I certainly would like to send my words of appreciate to the other Product Manager who also helped me to make important decisions and found [technician] who helped at the highest level possible to have this machine delivered and reinstalled in my facility in Baltimore. His knowledge and experience have helped me to understand themachine, test it reinstalled, and familiarized myself with its main functions. - Once again, thank you, the entire team of EX-FACTORY, and thank you individually Product Managers and Technician.
   

Company: DUSTY STRINGS COMPANY Date: 11/24/2008 
       
Comment: I flew from Seattle to inspect (2) CNC Routers. When I arrived, the machines were powered up, an employee was busy dusting the machines and the EXF technician was standing by to demonstrate them to me. All my apprehensions about buying used equipment went away as my questions were professionally answered. We made a deal, and I would call EX-FACTORY again if I was looking for used woodworking machinery. - Ray Mooers, President
   

Company: R. MADERITE INC. Date:  11/21/2008 
       
Comment: The machine was damaged so heavily, can't use as shipped. Dented, bent and broken parts. (30 - 40) hours needed to fix problems.
   

Company: RAMSEY CABINET SHOP Date: 9/19/2008 
       
Comment: No Complaints. Good Service. Would have been nice to be better informed of shipments arrival date. - James C. Ramsey
   

Company: HEART PINE LUMBER & MILLWORKS Date:  8/15/2008

Comment: I saw you ad in one of my woodworking books. I liked what I saw; made phone call. I am ok with purchase. Will call on you again. - Ronald Kensinger
   

Company: CUSTOM HARDWOODS Date:  7/22/2008 
       
Comment: EXF Produces a very good machine for a small one-man shop. It's why I purchased this particular machine. We looked at nearly all of the competitors; the "408" was the best buy overall. -[Also] wanted to let you know how satisfied with [technician's] performance in helping with the CNC setup. His knowledge, friendliness, easy ability to work with, and professionalism was very much appreciated and noted. He is very well informed about the CAM-WOOD and comes across very well received. You have a good man on board! - Steve Speltz
   

Company: SANCTUARY WOOD CABINETS Date: 7/21/2008

Company: PRIME PANELS NEW ZEALAND LTD Date:  6/24/2008 
       
Comment: Very smooth transaction. I will refer to EXF for future requirements! - Nav Singh

Company: PRECISION WOODWORKING CO Date:  5/30/2008 
       
Comment: My Buying experience was good - the rep was very good. - Gary DeBerge
   

Company: EURO DESIGN CABINETS Date: 5/29/2008 
       
Comment: My salesman was great ...he attended to my needs. The pickup arrangement was less of an experience. I had to contact them to get things going. - Tracy Hegbloom
   

Company: HENRY R. LEE CARPENTER CONTRACTOR Date:  5/8/2008 
       
Comment: My Buying experience - excellent. - Henry Lee

Company: HARDAGE CUSTOM TRIM INC. Date: 4/7/2008 
       
Comment: The order process was easy and price was good. Thank you for your help. - Sam Hardage
   

Company: DECORUS FURNITURE Date:  3/19/2008 
       
Comment: I just want to know, since the BIESSE and the small SHODA are going to be disassembled, rigged, packed, and loaded by the owner (am I correct?) themselves and not by EX-FACTORY's staff, are you sure they are doing it in the correct manner? - Is it possible [for them to] put codes/label every cable/part they disconnected, so we can assemble it again here. Another most important thing is: those machines need to be strapped with metal stip (which is very strong) inside the container to avoid it moving during transport. - I had a bad experience with other un-professional machine dealer in North Carolina; they didn't tie the parts inside the container correctly, and my Clamp broke. I believe EX-FACTORY's standard is high, because I am satisfied with EX-FACTORY [that] sold to me some time ango, and I also have a freind who is an American Citizen and owns a woodworking factory close to mine, and he also bought machines from EX-FACTORY and he is satisfied, too. - Rudy Hartono
   

Company: AMERICAN MILLWORK CORP Date: 3/12/2008 
       
Comment: [Product Manager] really took time with me, even though it was a small purchase. - Robin Oldenburg
   

Company: BUILDER RESOURCE Date:  3/7/2008 
       
Comment: No manual was with the machine. [The Product Manager] sent us the manual by fax. - Randy Howell
   

Company: BUILDER RESOURCE Date: 3/7/2008 
       
Comment: [Product Manager] did a great job. Very knowledgeable and helpful, as was your dispatcher. However, due to the late shipment, we lost 1 of 3 contracts that we were buying the machine for. The lost contract was worth ...$ 18,000 to us. - Randy Howell
   

Company: SAUDER MANUFACTURING CO Date:  3/5/2008 
       
Comment: Transactions were handled in very timely and professional manner. - Nate Baer
   

Company: MERIT WOOD PROD LLC Date: 2/27/2008 
       
Comment: I have appreciated working with EX-FACTORY on our equipment needs. The process hasn't always been flawless, but EX-FACTORY has always been top flight to work with. I trust [the Product Manager's] depth of knowledge andopinion; he has helped our company grow even beyond the tool purchases. We are just getting started in our plans and will be purchasing more from EX-FACTORY in the future. - Kent Kavanagh
   

Company: Date:  2/22/2008

Company: JOYWAY PRODUCTS Date: 2/6/2008 
       
Comment: Quality CNC for the money. All the people that handled the sale to shipping were excellent. [The Product Manager] for info on the machine, [Customer Service] for payment info and [Manager] for shpping - even with the snow storm you had! - Wayne Heikila
   

Company: TITAN WAKE ACCESSORIES LLC Date:  2/6/2008 
       
Comment: I spoke with [Product Manager] the listing agent, and he asked me to email him my questins. I never heard back from him, so I tried calling another [Product Manager]. I emailed him my questions and never received a response from him either. So, I called and got a hold of the [category's Product Manager] who has been awsome - very responsive and helpful. One other opportunity for improvement: Whatever mechanism you have in place that triggers shipment once payment is made, did not work in my case. A couple of weeks after payment, I called to see when I'd receive the machine (I figured I'd have received it by now) and the [Product Manager] was unaware that payment had been made. - Scott Sax
   

Company: GUERNSEY ARCHITECTURAL SYSTEMS Date: 2/5/2008 
       
Comment: [Product Manager] is very knowledgeable and overworked. - Russ Kidd

Company: GEOTEX INC Date:  11/21/2007 
       
Comment: [My Buying Experience] a real pleasure to deal with. You will be the first called for our future equipment needs. - Marcus Blagg
   

Company: THE MASTER'S SHOP INC Date: 11/19/2007 
       
Comment: I bought the Dust Collector as part of a CNC package the [Product Manager] put together for me. He selected because he carried it in stock. It's just a little bit noisier than a similar machine I had already. I was and am extremely pleased with [the Product Manager's] service and with my EX-FACTORY experience overall. He could not have been more helpful. - Amy Bruns
   

Company: MARIETTA WOOD SUPPLY Date:  10/30/2007 
       
Comment: I just sent your fax. Since then I got off the phone with the seller. I was told by [the Product Manager] the seller would not drop the price any. The seller called me asking me what price we traded on. I feel like I am being jerked around. I would like to talk to the boss's boss. - Craig Farr
   

Company: ARCHITECTURAL WINDOW SYSTEMS Date: 10/12/2007 
       
Comment: A GOOGLE search took me to EX-FACTORY where I found an easy-to-navigate site; found the exact type of Saw I was looking for and paid a price that made both my boss and me happy. - Steve Wiley
   

Company: WALNUT HOLLOW FARM INC Date:  9/18/2007 
       
Comment: I have known [the Product Manager] for a long time. Good person to do business with. - Alan M. Ladd
   

Company: SYNERGY WOOD PRODUCTS Date: 9/10/2007 
       
Comment: I was impressed. [Product Manager] treated me fairly and ensured I got the particular piece of equipment I needed. He did the follow-up which is truly appreciated. - Mike Shusterman
   

Company: ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SOLUTIONS Date:  9/1/2007 
       
Comment: Thanks for all of your help with trying to resolve this problem. I was actually talking to my brother, and we will search and remedy the missing screen carriages. There is no reason for you to talk to [the manufacturer] about them. We will only get a few key components from them and probably have a local guy fab some others to cut costs. The main thing for you to make sure it happens is that he Seller holds true to his word of offering me ...$ 1,000 for this hassle. Once again, thanks for helping me. - Eric Kreidermacher
   

Company: FULLER CABINETS Date: 8/29/2007 
       
Comment: [My Buying experience..] Great. [The Product Manager] gave me several options for the tool I was looking for, and even waited a few weeks until a better option was available, then called to let me know and arranged the deal over the phone. It was exactly what I was after and the process was painless. Thank You! - Kallin Benson
   

Company: TRIUNE CONSULTING Date:  7/2/2007 
       
Comment: I looked at the MELTEX and the NORDSON that you have there and will let you know if I find some interest in either one. Your people did such a good job on this one that I really don’t think there is any need to come and inspect any future equipment. They obviously know what they’re doing and take a lot of pride in their work. Thanks and regards - Carl Cucuzza
   

Company: JOHN OLSON & COMPANY Date: 6/30/2007 
       
Comment: Sorry I did not get back to you sooner. The broken part is really insignificant and easily replaceable. Saturday morning's "did you know this Saw is broken" question from the trucker ends up being 99% false alarm which is very good news. The Saw was well tarped and the trucker was friendly and quite helpful at this end. I managed to locate a friend with a Fork Lift so the unloading ended up going well also. I want to thank the seller for storing the machine through the winter. That was very helpful and much appreciated. I also want to thank everyone for all the help and good service. I am quite happy how everything turned out and do not expect or want any compensation from the seller. I look forward to having the Band Saw completely restored and then looking for some more machines to outfit my shop. If you know or hear of nice machines closer to my home, or anything special I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you again. - John Olson
   

Company: SPACEMAKER FURNITURE FACTORY Date:  6/29/2007 
       
Comment: Hello. I just wanted to tell you how absolutely delighted I am with the professional service I have received from EX-FACTORY with regards to my recent equipment purchases. The [Product Manager] has really done a fantastic job for us in finding exactly what we needed, and facilitating our purchases, deliveries, installations, and even with making repairs to some of the machines we bought. We have found [him] to be extremely knowledgeable about what equipment is best to use to facilitate our manufacturing, and also about who to contact for tooling and repairs. I have been in the woodworking industry for 30 years, during which time I have bought a lot of equipment. I have to say, [Product Manager] is as good as they get as a consultant and facilitator to the woodworking machinery industry. We have a lot of equipment yet to acquire with our modernization project, and we are very grateful to have a representative like [him], and a company like EX-FACTORY to work with. - Jim Vicker
   

Company: HADLEY EXHIBITS INC Date: 6/26/2007 
       
Comment: I realized most of your staff were at the Las Vegas show, but it took almost five weeks to get the equipment onto our floor. I took a lot of heat for the delays and the person in our shop knowledgeable of Wide Belt Sanders is on vacation for two weeks. - Norbert Witkowski

Company: CUSTOM PLYWOOD INC. Date: 3/14/2007

Company: SUPERIOR KILNS Date:  3/12/2007

He siad the install is going fantastic that to all of you. - If I missed anybody in Zeeland that was also involved, tell him/her "Thanks", too. - MACO is very excited aobut their new toy and have no regrets with the price they paid. - Bob Bullin, Product Manager
   

Company: TOMAX Date: 2/28/2007 
       
Comment: Prior to buying a used Moulder from EX-FACTORY, I wasted several days dealing with other places that sell machinery. Those OTHER SITES listed machinery that were already "sold", didn't return my calls promptly and listed machinery without providing pricing or pictures! EX-FACTORY has the information and staff that lets you make a good purchase.

Comment: Product description was incorrect [no fault of EX-FACTORY, seller's fault] and the small piece of equipment was of no value to me. EX-FACTORY recognized a bad situation and issued a fair credit to cover my loss. - Mike Dyer, Product Manager
   

Company: AMERICAN WOODS INC Date:  9/12/2006 
       
Comment: EX-FACTORY allowed us to buy used instead of new. If we had to go out and fax and find a certain piece of machinery that someone actually wanted to sell and in fair condition, we would spend a lot of our money and time which in turn would not make it feasible to buy used. - Ed Hippen, Plant Manager

Comment: bob higgins-steele 9/1 [ #2 -- Re: Looking for good vertical panel saw around 10k ] Try EX-FACTORY. I don't remember their URL but if you google them will come up quickly. Make sure you see the machine if you get serious. Buying on line sight unseen can be risky. (Ask me).
   

Company: NH HISTORIC SASH & WINDOWS Date:  8/25/2006 
       
Comment: Took a lovely ride 6-hour to [Seller's] haven in the Catskills yesterday…and found that the NORTHFIELD 16" Jointer is nearly flawless and is just what I need…so I told Pete that I wanted it; we agreed that he would ready it for shipping right after Labor Day. I will contact Con-Way carriers for a quote. He is a conscientious fellow and we discussed the palleting and crating in great detail; I also had a confirmation from Jeff Mahacek at NORTHFIELD about how to secure the machine for the shipping. From my end, it would be fine to remit [Seller] his share of the funds I sent you.

Thank you for keeping me in the loop on the Jointers and being patient with our decision-making process; we were ready at the right time to jump on what we wanted, and we feel we got a dream machine: low hours, only two owners, great care and condition. EX-FACTORY rated it only as 3.5 paws out of 5, which after seeing it I'd say is low!

Please know of my appreciation; I will expect the machine here in NH in mid-September and e-mail you a happy shot of the thing in its new home!

Company: FURNITURE ELITE LTD Date: 6/14/2006 
       
Comment: Please let me say that speaking with some of the category managers have been educative and rewarding. From [Product Manager 1] I learnt for the 1st time that I needed two types of Sanders (a) A Drum Sander and (b) a Profile Sander. He emphasised that the Louvers/Staves are difficult to sand hence the need for a Profile Sander. From him I also learnt that the SILVER Brand is a Chinese Product. I don't want a Chinese machine if I can get a German/European or American machine. From [Product Manager 2] I learnt that the MEREEN JOHNSON is the top Brand in Rip Saws. He also educated me on how many hours the various Rip Saws are designed to work. Even though I want to start a Shutter line with a capacity for 200-300 Shutters a day my Rip Saw, Kiln and Sanders should be able to accommodate 500 doors or more because if you make Shutters you will definitely get orders to make windows and panel doors or half panel shutters doors and windows. This was why I asked Kola to buy the Moulder Sander from the Auction site.

I have visited a lot of Shutter Websites on the internet no Shutter company is doing Shutters alone they all do ancilliary products like windows, partitions, doors e.t.c. I want to do the same thing which is why my Multi Rip, my Sander and Kiln Dryer should be able to accommodate more than 200 shutters per day. - From [Product Manager 3] I learnt that the WEINIG Moulder is the top of the gang. He also told me that a transformer is a cheaper and more reliable way to meet my electrical specifications of 50 cycles. - Speaking with [Product Manager 4] I learnt that I could build the storage or shed for drying the wood myself and save on cost by buying just the boiler.

All these and more were questions that I needed to answer. They were kind enough to oblige me. After speaking with them all I came to the conclusion that the following machines are what I need to start a shutter line: 1. Kiln Dryer; 2. Multi Rip; 3. Moulder; 4. Crosscut; 5. Sanders; 6. Tenoner Mortiser; 7. Chamfer Machine; 8. Assembly Table/Clamp/Crimp.

[Product Manager 5], please let me emphasise that without the category managers input I will not have come this far with understanding the machineries that will be best suited for me. At this stage I am not concerned with discounting I just want to make sure I get the right equipments. Discount will come later after I have chosen the machines that I think will serve me best.

Finally, let me say that I meant no harm in speaking with your colleaques which was why I usually introduced myself and then mention to them that you are aware of my enquires. Speaking with them have helped in crystalising some of the options before me I now know which Moulder, Multi Rip, Under Cut and Chamfer Machine I want. I am yet to make up my mind on the Sanders, Kiln Dryer, Tenoner/Mortiser and Clamp/Crimp and Assembly Table. So please kindly go ahead and make your recommendations and suggestions on these four items. - I thank you for everything. - David Binitie

Comment: I am [responding] to the customer comment package I recently received via mail. - I have decided to use a letter style reply as I only purchased two small MERLIN Sanding Tools from your company. I suppose my overall experience would have been better detailed if I were to buy a larger piece of equipment from you and thus would of allowed me to utilize the "full blown" comment card. - I first experienced EX-FACTORY at the Woodworking and Machinery Supply Show in Toronto. I met [the Product Manager] at your booth where I was greeted with a smile and lots of free samples! [The Product Manager] was above and beyond the call of duty. I was quick to notice her expertise in the field and was delighted to meet with her and to review the new products available at the show. - From the time I placed my order, til the time I received it in our factory, the ordering process went very smooth and professional. [The Product Manager] continuously followed-up with me and tracked my order throughout the entire shipping process. - Now that I am on your email mailing list, I get updates on all the new and used equipment available from EX-FACTORY - I keep a close eye on this and when I see something that might interest my MRO Buyer, I let him know right away. Keep them coming. One of these days you'll rope us in! - My experience with EX-FACTORY was Top Notch. - If you deal with your customers who spend thousands of dollars the same way you deal with my …$ 84 order, I can't wait to buy more equipment from your company. - Keep up the great work and please pass along my gratitude to [The Product Manager] for a job well done. - Chris J. McBride

Comment: On major purchases such as this, I would like to see terms available that protect the buyer in the event major components are damaged and/or missing. The seller misrepresented the machine by not having it operational. We incurred 10% of sales price in additional cost and have been delayed installing over 45 days as a result. - Scott McCool
   

Company: M & S FINISH CARPENTRY LLC Date:  1/9/2006 
       
Comment: My Buying experience… some parts are missing, but I haven't had time to find out what all is gone. The [machine] is in excellent condition. The only problem was that was the shiipper never called 24 hours prior to delivery (as stated in the paperwork), so it took a little more work to get it to my shop. Shipper left machine at a storage/transfer company. - All in all I guess things could have gone a little better, but that won't stop me from considering EX-FACTORY next time I need something. - Mark Kummer

Comment: My Buying experience… was bad. I've been in this business for 40 years and bought a lot of machinery & will buy a lot more. Why buy from EX-FACTORY when there are so many good dealers that do what they say they will do. - Wayne Field

Company: DREAM BUILDERS OF THE SOUTHWEST Date: 3/29/2005 
       
Comment: Good news! Sam Bone from Dream Builders called to say that the AYEN "SKB-50" was up and running. He wishes for us to know that in his opinion, there would have been no way that referenced machine could have been in production at the sellers just prior to shipment - missing O-rings in pneumatic blocks. He also took the time to thank us for our support. - We worked together well as a team. The net result is that DREAM BUILDERS is in the market for (3) more pieces of machinery and will come back to us! - Carl Stout

Company: NH HISTORIC SASH & WINDOWS, LLC Date: 12/18/2004 
       
Comment: So glad to have found your co. and excellent site…the candy store, I'd call it! - Have just graduated from Boston's North Bennet Street School in preservation carpentry, and used a beautifully maintained 12" Northfield there. Would it be possible to view the machine as it's listed here in the "Northeast?" - Having never dealt with EX-FACTORY, what assurances can I expect as to the condition of any used equipment.? I have bought hand tools at auction and tailgates, and am anticipating some "getting-to-know-you" work on any stationary machines I buy. In any case, I still subscribe to my uncle's advice: "Only buy from someone you know…" thus I am eager to become familiar with EX-FACTORY. (He also was fond of adding, " The only true bargain…is quality.") - Thanks in advance for your assistance. - Greg Cope

Company: MEMPHIS MILLWORK Date: 3/17/2004 
       
Comment: With regards to the Holzma beam saw, I understand the position you are taking as there is not much money involved in this sale [EX-FACTORY note: purchased a …$ 95,000 (new) Panel Saw for …$ 3,500]. However, it has been my understanding that EX-FACTORY backs the claims of the seller who represented the machine as "in good condition" and as represented by the EX-FACTORY listing. In our conversations the seller also claimed that the PLC was working on the saw. We understand fully that the saw is bought in "as is" condition but that condition was represented as all items in good working order as discussed. - Rather then getting into a disagreement that will get us no where…..is there any compromise here with regard to the present situation ??? Can EX-FACTORY help with the costs of refit ?? How about [the service technician's] time in the repairs ??? I am open to a fair solution. I have spent a LOT of money with your company over the past years and would like to continue doing so in the future so I am asking that we do not just close the door on this issue as is. - Tom Boyda

EX-FACTORY Reply: Good evening, Tom: - I understand there may have been some developments since last night in regard to potential solutions that will make the Saw operable. I went to work and provided [the service technician] some phone numbers of some contacts last night, and in the meantime he came up with some alternatives involving his former boss that might have changed the equation in your favor. - I did want to address some important points in your written request below, in the context of our stated desire here at EX-FACTORY to always be separating ourselves from the competition in the used woodworking machinery market by providing superior service; both during and after the sale. - While your understanding of our policy in helping resolve problems for our customers is essentially correct, this particular instance is unique in that I specifically instructed you not to buy this machine because the control is obsolete and no longer supported by HOLZMA; and that the seller purchased it from a local auction and never ran it or powered it up himself. When you decided to move forward anyway I assumed you figured at such a low price you could afford some repairs. - I was only willing to consummate this deal with you in an “as is-where is” situation for that very reason; and you will recall I said that as a former HOLZMA Engineer I had steered our customers to other machines in the last couple years; because of our commitment to help solve after-sales issues and my intimate knowledge that this control more than likely would not work at all. - All that being said, Tom: we are all about compromise and really appreciate the opportunity to earn your business – we want you to be a happy EX-FACTORY customer! That’s why I’ve stayed involved and spent time with [the technician] on the phone after faxing schematics from my desk to get you rolling. - We’re not about to close doors with anyone, or for that matter endanger an image we’ve worked hard to build on any one sale. Please feel free to call any of us at EX-FACTORY to assist with any problems you encounter; we all stand ready to be at your service.

Comment: Thanks for the help. Replaced the Transformer, re-set the fence, and [we] are back up & running. I now know a bunch more about the machine than before; but will continue to pester you with stupid questions from time-to-time. Your knowledge of HOLZMA Saws is astounding. I never would have thought you could analyze our electrical problems on the phone with that kind of accuracy and detailed corrective action. Thanks again. - Frank League

Comment: I wanted to email you and tell you that the THERMWOOD machine arrived, safe and sound. The machine looks to be in excellent condition, and I must say that whoever owned this machine did a fine job of taking care of it. We are letting it thaw out (it was about 5° when it arrived) and cannot wait to put some power to it and make parts. If it runs as good as it looks, we will be in the good shape. Thanks again. I look forward to doing business with you in the future. - Dan Esser

Comment: I wanted to make one last contact with you regarding the ANDI "Exxact" we purchased from you October 10, 2003. - First of all, thanks so much for helping us make the purchase. We did find things worked out very well considering everything. - You will remember my men had gone to Kansas to hear the spindle run, and when they go there, it was not operational. The agreement was we would listen to the spindle run over the phone. That was a mistake, because listening to a spindle run via cell phone is not a workable substitute. When we got the machine, we only ran it a very short time until we found it breaking bits, making a terrible growl at speeds above 5,000 rpm etc. - When my technician disassembled the spindle, the bearings were shot, the armature was out of balance, and the cups that hold the tools were so badly worn they seated at top rather than at the bottom edge. That was a low ebb in our CNC experience. - But as it turned out, new bearings cost $1,200, a motor shop balanced the armature, and a local machine shop was skilled to machine out the cup for the tools, and only one was too badly worn and needed to be discarded. These additional items cost me $500.00 so for $1700.00 above other expected costs we now believe we have the machine in fairly top notch shape. - We have been running the machine all the last two weeks, and it has been performing as is expected of a good machine. - So that is pretty much our story at this point. I don't feel the folks in Kansas really told us the whole story, but that is life. I feel you did all that you promised, and would not hesitate to purchase from you again if and when opportunity affords. - Steve

Comment: …I have found this model with another vendor who is quite a bit closer, and they would sell it for the same price but include delivery. I hooked up with this machine on the EX-FACTORY website through, and prefer to do business with ya'll, given this would be my third EX-FACTORY purchase, and appreciating the good customer service provided by EX-FACTORY. Thanks. - Dennis McKee

Comment: (Posted on www.WOODWEB.com Forum) - Re: 12" Jointers - Invicta's from Brazil look like good machines. There's also the Delta 12" which I know from personal experience to be a good unit. I personally would go used. Call the dealers listed in classifiedexchange.com You'll have to subscribe to get it. Also exfactory.com or woodquip.com and the yellow pages or do a google.com search. I can usually find basic used equipment locally through auctions or dealers for a decent price. My advantage is I learned how to rebuild equipment so I'm ready with resources on every possible contingency. For me used is the best bet but old iron isn't always the best either. New heads and technology are improving machines. I think Wilke/Bridgewood is a step better than Grizzly. Grizzly seems to be improving over time. Some pretty good prices in exfactory or try the classified on this site. The thing about exfactory is they are brokers who add their fee for listing machines. I've sold a few things through them with no problems. - Erich

I would, and in fact, recommend you to other shop owners when the subject of equipment purchase arises. - Mario Aldape

Comment: Thank you, for getting back to me. … I've been buying equipment from most of the East Coast used equipment dealers and auction houses for the last eight or so years (slowly, I might add), plus during that time have attended many of the larger east coast furniture plant auctions, both pre- & post-9/11… I'm afraid I'm one of those odd individuals who pick out my latest copies of the monthly prices realized from The Book or my most recent Classified Exchange before I crack open my latest issue of Playboy. As always it is a pleasure dealing with you and your knowledgeable company. I have spent many early morning hours looking over EX-FACTORY's inventory dreaming of the day when I will be able to afford many of the more automated machines you have… My regards to [your Product Managers], and the whole crew at EX-FACTORY. You guys are tops in my book. I guess we're all learning from each other how this buy and sell thing works… Thanks again for the heads up reminder. You're being very professional in your follow up and I like that. - Regards from Adam Thomson

Company: FISHER & ASSOC Date:  2/26/2003 
       
Comment: It has been busy these past few days, and I have been very slow at replying to your last email - so let me update you as to where the whole mess sits. To begin with, last week I ordered the nameplate and other items (set of spacing collars, CCW spindle label, and a special bolt required to repair the hand brake). With elbow grease, the NORTHFIELD is looking respectable, a very nice machine. Looking forward to having it in operation soon. I appreciate what you and EX-FACTORY have done in this sale/purchase, and I am a bit chagrined because there are several other machines (contrary to wife Angela's wishes) in which I am interested. I hope that, even with the glitches, this sale has been a lucrative venture for you and that in the future you might bargain in my behalf in the purchase of other dreams. - Now the rest of the story - "the missing ring." Last Friday I had the necessary ring all packaged to send to Jeff at NORTHFIELD to have them make up the missing ring. I was visiting with my brother-in-law, telling him about the precision required to fit a new outer ring to the 2 inner rings. Well before I left his machine shop, he'd turned me a new outer ring. The steel he made it from is bright chrome, yet it fits wonderfully. So, I and the NORTHFIELD have a ring (not sure what Ned will charge us - the ring is now family and I'll let Angela twist a bill out of her brother) but we will take care of it. Thanks again - it has been grand experience. If I get a chance I'll send you a picture of the new ring. - Casey Fisher
