Del, did you get your wife's tank yet?

I don’t want to add gasoline to the fire.
But they sold a lot of raffle tickets.
This should have been resolved even at a lost to the LFS.
it’s been a year
This is bad !

Guys. The BoD is aware of this situation. We agree this should’ve been resolved earlier. But we have to measure that demand against COVID and the survival of retail chains in general.
We are working with @DELxCMB and ACC to get to a mutual satisfactory solution.

We sincerely apologize to Del for this and will try and tweak the raffle guidelines going forward as a result of this
 
Back in the day I used to be in charge of collecting what’s do for a gentleman who specializes in sports betting (before it became legal) and still know some tricks to the trade. But will cost 20% of value. My company name was ,, busted knee collections,, let me know if you wanna hire outside problem solver

Hey guys. I spoke to John from @Aquarium Care Center

Regarding Raffle tank-
This disaster started with the 750 having issues and then going out of stock.

Once COVID hit we had committed to a new store build and lost a great deal of our business due to COVID.

With the financial stress of this all, we took all reserved money to use to operate and keep our families and business safe. We are committed to keeping our word and supplying the tank and that will 100% happen however due to the situations above we needed time to recover.

As it stands today we see that end of October should be a good time for us based on what we see.
So there are no misunderstandings or mixed words ACC will provide the Raffle tank for the winner

COVID set us back. But we are almost recovered and fully intend to honor our commitment.

We have offered the winner a free delivery and placement of the tank! Also, some gift cards for the store to help.

Hope you all understand this is not a fraudulent act of some shady situations its simply an unfortunate situation based on today's environment.

I'd be interested how this was (or not) booked on his P&L statement. Did he claim it last year on his tax as a donation?
