Peter sorry to hear about your troubles.
But and this is a big BUT. I don't know you from a can of paint but, I do know a lot of glass shops that operate honestly like you.
However, many of them perhaps, like you refuse to fight in court for what is rightfully their's and that's that.
We are in a battle right now with over 19 insurance companies in the State of Massachusetts. They use that claim of fraud to tie us up in court thinking that will scare us away. They use the right to see our "proof of purchase" to demand to see and perhaps, share with our competitor information is private. I can't ask to see their information. Where's this survey they have been claiming to have used to determine our prices? Where is it?
Peter please don't be bitter towards your former glass colleagues. I beleive and the pervious years have proved that there is more corporate fruad going on in corporate offices then in the "Mom and Pop" operations around this country. I never heard about a family lossing their life saving for what some jerk has done to make a buck. (This is not to condon it either, just a point).
My family and I wish you luck in your future endavors and we hope you will stay in the battle to get a fair share of the American dream for all of hard working and honest glass shop owners and operators.
