    Thumbs up

    Aren't socialist companies grand. I have Lappierre and Waterloo tanks and filter presses and happy with both and not busting on anything north of the border. Just LOL and how some of them bust on Leader for their prices. One thing about them, if they tell you something, it will likely be done. Guess customer service and made in USA just costs a little more!

    Steve,

    If you need anything Lapierre, go thru the maple guys if it can be shipped. Best prices and awesome customer service. As far as my sap, the trees have run very little. Will boil off tommorrow what it ran this week. The ground was still hard as a rock yesterday on top even after 4 days of 40+ and 2 days of full sun. If you would have fell and hit you head, it could have given you a concussion or killed you it was so hard. Never seen anything like it.

    I believe that the next time i am looking for a piece of equipment rather it its from Lapierre or Leader=I'd have to have the piece right at hand to see it first before the transaction would take place? Had bad customer experiences with both and not really looking for a return.

    Like my signature used to say="In case you forgot.I'll remind you that your memory is shorter then your membrane" your penis in other words... after several contacts,Messages and such and still no results= WTF are you thinking?? Certainly could mean the loss of a customer in the future....

    ?? Socialist companies ?? They are certainly not owned or operated by the gov, so no idea what you mean by that. Poor service can/has happened on both sides of the border. I don't think Lapierre does that poor a job overall.

    You are right they all screw up and you can solve the problem by going through dealers that can deal direct to Canada in Lapiere's case because the Canada company is not the problem it is here in US distribution. I understand The Maple Guys are good and another one is Mayottes Maple product's in Fletcher, Vt

    Forgive me, I should have said companies operating in a socialist enviroment. There is no way a company south of the border can compete with a company north of the border and still maintain high quality. Payroll taxes, healthcare and all the other benefits were enjoy here cost a company a lot more. A company south of the border has to have better customer service in order to compete. I buy stuff from north of the border the for mainly the same reason as everyone else, price.

    And if the democrats get their way, we will be in complete socialism here in the next 10 to 20 years.

    Come on boys, I love you all, But I thought we were talking maple here not politics!
    If I remember right one of the ground rule's of this forum was that we weren't even supposed to talk about dealers ( Which I may have been guilty of too!)

    Its a great country we live in that allows freedom of speech!

    I have trees to tap and syrup to make. See you later!

    Highest Regards to all of you,
