I received a postcard in the mail saying that some company was trying to reach me in order to distribute my prize and all I need to do was call an 800 number. It turned out to be a vinyl siding company called K-designers and I had ?won? a George Foreman Grill that I would get for just listening to a fifteen minute talk about their product. Well, I figured I?d listen to the promotion then get the Grill. Only it doesn?t work that way. You see, they never had any grills to start with. K Designers sales reps are trained con artists. They sell an inferior product that you can?t buy in the hardware stores because no one in their right mind would buy it. All it takes is to visit some poor schmuck that had it installed and you?ll see what I mean. Anyway, Clay showed up at the house last Summer. He didn?t have my grill but promised it would be sent to me. Clay is the ?marketing director? and had advertising dollars he could use to bring my costs down considerably if I chose to be a ?model? or ?display? home for his product. This is an old scam. Rent or borrow a copy of Danny Devito?s ?Tin Man? to see how they do it.
Pros: not the worst installer out there
Cons: with make you feel had for paying too much
