Re: 1st purchase from Hawks. Dissatisfied.

Its always best to come to the end of a problem FIRST, then post the results.

Since the end was resolved & resulted in great customer service....Wouldn't it have better to post your praise and of your initial dissatisfaction & the end results?

IMO, If a company treats us bad...IN THE END. We should tell others, but not before that.

Re: 1st purchase from Hawks. Dissatisfied.

I have to say my dealings with Hawks were top notch. Should have bought my spoiler from them too instead of from Classics.

I will no longer shop from Hawks as they don't use cat food bags and therefore discriminate against cat owners.

Seriously, great job Hawks for thinkning out of the box and trying to pass on some savings.
