Default Vendor response

I am trying to be a good patron and use the site vendors but they don't seem to answer the phone or reply to emails. Has anyone else had this problem? I assume that these guys may do it as a side job so it may not be priority number one. But it's going on a week and I haven't heard from three vendors!

The longest I ever waited was 24 hours for a e-mail reply. Doesn't sound normal.

I'm with Roland, about the longest turnaround I've had is 24 hours. There's one particular vendor, Rich Patton, I've bugged the crap out of a bunch and received 4, 5 emails in a day. Most of them I do believe this is a side business.

I'm not going to mention the vendor, but I've been waiting for 3 days to hear a response from one. I called another cub graveyard and he didn't answer either. The first is a sponsor. The last isn't.

As a new member, I had a similar problem.

Mr. Patton was easy to contact and very helpful when I called about some items. I left phone messages and a private message through the forum to another sponsor over a month ago, and still have had no reply. I've since found good deals on what I needed, with kind help from many knowledgable forum members.

I had a great experience with Mark at IH Cub Cadet Parts - He does it as a sideline so his day-job has to take precedence but he kept in timely communication and when he knew that he was going to be out of touch he let me know ahead of time - real quick turn around on parts also.

I've done inquiries with Patton Acres and always got a quick and information rich response.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
