About Me…
My name is Marcel Fairbairn, and I own GearSource.com the leader in Used Entertainment gear and LED Source, the largest LED ONLY distributor in North America. I am president, top chef, floor sweeper, and of course, the complaint department. In about 2006, I decided to start blogging because i am told I’ve got a big mouth, and tend to talk about a lot of things people do not generally speak publicly about. I am not trying to be loud, or controversial (shocking). Only honest. I can assure you, anything you read here is probably not sugar coated, or de-sensitized in any way. I tell it like it is, and therefore, you may find a few entertaining posts, unless of course, I happen to have picked on you that particular day for some reason. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my blog as much as I enjoy taking the time to put in these entries. Remember, I welcome comments!! I may not always agree with your comments, but I will always welcome them. Thanks for taking the time to stop by. Please don’t forget to visit my sponsers (yup – the peeps who pay my paycheck!) GearSource, LED Source and Rental-Source. Thanks.
Hey -
I saw on you ‘deadbeats’ blog you had dealt with Dale Sahlin and Fusion Design Live. If I may ask, how did that turn out?
I’ve been trying to contact him for 2 months to finalize a purchase, and it’s like he vanished from the face of the earth. Phone calls to cell and business go unanswered…even though I know some one checks them, because every so often I’ll get ‘users mailbox is full’ messages, then next day its fine…
Same with emails.
Just curious. I had one successful transaction with him earlier last year, but am a bit hesitant now…
Thanks,
JAM
Hey Jerry.
Yeah, we had some trouble collecting on a particular deal with Dale last year. We’re still doing business though, and hope his situation has improved. He is tough to reach – but primarily because he’s so busy.
Marcel.
Hi Marcel
I like reading your blogs on the lighting industry. I am in Orlando Florida and my dream is to run and own a lighting production company that has lighting inventory. I know you are probably very busy, but it would be invaluable if you can provide me details of where I can find industry info such as (is there a demand for extra gear in town and how much, capital sources, how others started, how can one enter with capital costs soo high?) Thank you so much and as always I’ll keep reading your blogs and using gearsource.
