Chris and Rick Barclay, this is your chance to respond. You already have an account here so it should be VERY easy for you.

I have asked you to respond to my complaints about your childish business behavior, horribly false advertising and flat out illegal activities. You NEVER respond yet you have the time to endlessly search the web for archives of everything I say and others say about myself and my company. You contact people in private, send emails to forum owners asking them to remove my complaints, even use hacking software at our web site. Why can't you answer even one simple question?

You emailed Bill (here on my3cents) and asked him if I ("Ben Jordan") had said anything weird to him. You told Bill that I have accused more than one upset customer of being a "shill" (you).

I have accused exactly ONE "customer" of being you and it was worded more like "EITHER you are mistaken on who you are complaining to OR you are working for Barclay." I had very good reasons to be suspicious of that customer. He purchased the same product from you and myself on ebay within 5 minutes. He then gave you a glorious positive feedback while sending me a nasty email claiming our auction was deceiving and demanding a full refund without returning the product while calling us jerks and idiots. You KNOW your auction was deceiving and showed pictures of a product you didn't actually have while our auction explicitly described what you were getting with pictures of the actual item. Our auction was the only one that even mentioned "membrane". By any stretch of the imagination your auction was the deceiving one. It would have been more weird if I HADN'T suspected a rat.... and that was BEFORE he divulged inside information while you simultaneously altered pictures on your web site proving you were at the very least in close contact with the person.

So Rick.... Let me quote you: "On more than one occasion, he [Ben Jordan] has accused a dissatisfied customer of being us or a shill working for us. "

I admit to ONE and state that I have more than good reason to suspect him. What, when, who, were the other cases you mention "more than one"?

Also, you made this statement: "We've been competing for a few years for the same product/market and sometimes it has gotten nasty (and not on our end), resulting in innocent people getting hit with shrapnel."

"(and not on our end)"

So you are saying it has gotten "nasty" but you have not participated.... you've been the victim in this.

Well Rick, I have a LONG list of the "nasty" things you've done to myself, my company and your customers.

1) Dozens of illegal harassing automated calls to our toll free number (a crime).
2) Altering (Forging) federal documents and illegally claiming to be FCC Authorized.
3) Using hacking software to read unpublished web content and files on our web site and server.
4) Researching myself on the internet and taking pictures from my wife's myspace page, later replacing them with insulting images to let us know you're working with the buyer on eBay that sent us harassing emails and left negative feedback.
5) Falsifying Amazon reviews and feedback.
6) Attacking our membrane keypad for a year then copying it while claiming to have the original and the only one.
7) Attacking our keypad lifetime warranty for a year then copying it while claiming to have the only one.
8) Giving your copy of our membrane keypad TWO names and using intentionally deceiving pictures to fool customers into thinking you have an improved rubber keypad.
9) Lying to thousands of customers telling them Panasonic had redesigned the problem keypad when you know they didn't.
10) Mentioning myself by name on your web site, claiming I have lied and manipulated evidence while trying to keep your web site a secret and depriving me the opportunity to respond.
11) Buying at least 3 URLs similar to ours.

This was just the short list.

Now Rick.... do YOU have even one example of something "nasty" we (or I) have done to you? From my point of view we have done nothing but defend ourselves against your attacks and publicly complain about your false advertising. Maybe you took something I said the wrong way? If you could muster up a reply maybe I could explain your error in judgment.

You have NEVER responded in any other way that silly pictures and links. Prove me wrong and reply here. I cannot stop you, block or delete your response. You can either keep silent or defend your "nasty" behavior. Maybe I am the one misunderstanding your actions, but how am I supposed to know that when you never say anything?

Your silence is proof of your guilt.
