I don't know anyone who has gotten any money back, I do know folks who have bought the plates, paid their money and received product. I've seen the plates installed, low without tow. |

I don't recall who it was, but there IS someone on TheSamba that was making plates other than Mr. RipOff, Michael.
Can somebody chime in?
Incidentally, I ran into Michaels' buddy Scott Maxwell at the Drag Night in SC and introduced myself. Scott assured me as to what a GREAT Guy Mike Anderson is!
I probably should have gotten Scott to pay me, and he could have surely got the money back from Michael since He's such a great guy.
I was hoping it would have been Mike that I ran into instead of Scott, as I would have been sure to shake and/or beat my money out of that thief.
He WILL run into the wrong person one day. He can't hide forever. _________________ Drag bus! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2MOVmKdhX4

You can't go wrong buying anything from Russell. Great products, and a great guy to deal with. _________________ Drag bus! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2MOVmKdhX4

Michael just posted his new email and phone number here:
http://www.volksrods.com/forum/showthread.php?t=33791
"Michael Anderson
435.256.xxxx (moderator note - full phone # removed as we don't allow that)
It seems his reputation precedes him. |

Anybody that wants to work this out, I'm right here. Been in the same place for the last 6 years, making cool shit & selling parts. I've had thousand's of successful transaction over there. I don't have a problem with paying the debt back to anyone that I owe, it pleases me to do it. I DO have a problem with all the drama BullShit... I won't put up with it on any level.
Mr. Anderson,
I have been at the same place for 10 years. I still have the same phone number too.
You ripped me off 6 years ago. Stop typing and send me my f-n money. if not the "drama" is going to stay. _________________ Mike

Just got undercut by Michael on a deal... I reached out to Michael, who had done work for me before, to give me a bid on doing some suspension work on a bus that I was about to purchase. I let him know a few details on the bus I was looking to buy and next thing I know he's buying it out from under me and sending pics of it on his trailer.
My fault for saying anything before the deal was done, but sadly it speaks to his character and value of friendship in the VW community these days. Look for a flip from him on early PGSG in the near future - or under a different user name.
Either way, after finding this user feedback I'm feeling lucky I don't have anything worse to report and would question future dealings with him. |

Once a piece of Crap, Still a piece of Crap.
He still owes me money.
When I run in to him one day, it won't be pretty. _________________ Drag bus! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2MOVmKdhX4

Digging up an old thread....
Michael has been in touch with me a few times over the last couple of years promising to make good on the money he owed to me. The last time he contacted me was about a year. At that point I had written him off.
Imagine my surprise when I get a call today from him saying he wanted to take care of the $1000 he owed me "right now" While we were on the phone he PayPal'd me the $1000.
Maybe he'll be calling others he did wrong as well?? |

Michael Anderson ripped me off for a grand at the exact same time Greg Banfill got his $1000 back.
He is now using the shop name DUB FAB.
Here's his website:
http://www.dubfab.com/store/
His website lists his address under the contact details:
DubFab
770 Rio Virgin Dr
St George, UT 84790
Phone is listed as well:
435-256-5432
This is his home address. He runs this business part time in his home garage.
During the day him and his wife sell Farmers insurance:
https://www.google.com/maps/uv?hl=en&pb=!1s0x8...uICh1NsQtQ
Address:
334 Tabernacle St
St George, UT 84770
Phone:
(435) 628-4380
It's their own shop, they own the franchise or whatever.
I know usually this site doesn't allow addresses and contact info to be posted, but it's all public and listed on the internet. I'm just moving the info here so if someone does a google search on this guy they will hopefully get linked here.
He talks a good game. He's basically a con-man, and will probably steal the sweatshirt off your back and then try to convince you why he was justified in doing it while you freeze to death. He has very questionable ethics.
Seriously, avoid this guy at all costs. |

I haven't gotten a call from this Weasel yet. He still owes me $200 PLUS the interest I Will take out of his hide should I run into him.
It's a Smaller world than he thinks. I hope Everett doesn't let any of his ads sneak on here now that He's changed his biz title for the Third time. _________________ Drag bus! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2MOVmKdhX4

For what it's worth, this guy is still in business, and mostly uses Instagram for showing his stuff. He bought a large hoard of parts from a friend of mine not long ago. Transaction went fine as far as I know.

Nope. He still owes me $225.
