[William Draven]

And with Stories like this is yet another reason why I am adamantly faithful to Theory11's customer service. News like this just makes me sick. Thank god there are companies out there with solid ethics like T11.

This info was released a couple weeks ago but yeah it's bad. Not quite as bad as certain magicians being convicted child offenders but still pretty bad.

I had a few run ins with their company and after about the 3rd I finally just stopped ordering from him. I believe his family and co-workers are running the shop as per the email Hank sent out a day or so after that article came out. That news spread threw the magic community like wild fire. I'm surprised you hadn't heard about it Wil.

Yeah, I've heard they've had a few problems over the years like charging you for something that isn't in stock and not giving a refund or anything like that. This is why I like guy's Denny Magic, usually if they don't have something in stock, they won't charge you for it and they tell you what their inventory is.

 

[RickEverhart]

That's the issue I was referring to Randy. I was charged multiple times for items that were "supposedly' in stock but were not. I'd wait sometimes almost over a month or more for an item that may or may not ever come.

I lost money with Hank. Things that was suppose to be in stock wasnt. Less that half my order was completed. I still have 70 dollars plus lost. I will never see it or my order and numerous emails and calls have been made. Honestly I have no sympathy for that company and their service.

Now it is true... I haven't ordered from them in several years (and thankfully so now) However I did email them today requesting to remove myself from their mailing list and explaining to them why I was no longer going to use them. I got a reply from Aron who I assume is Hank's son, now in charge. He said: "I am not sure how effective your boycott will be judging from your order history."

Apparently he's never heard of the power of social media. So you too can join the online movement to boycott Hank Lee by joining our official Facebook group at: http://www.facebook.com/groups/BoycottHankLee
