Restaurant Equipment Supply - American Ice Machines, Discount Restaurant Equipment - Mike Stuart - Bob Sells defective used equipment works without permits unethical business Tulsa Oklahoma
I worked for this company for a short time recently but some things that went on there caused me to have to leave it. They sell new and used restaurant equipment in Tulsa. The used equipment they sell is mostly in very poor condition. They make minimal repairs to get the equipment out the door. I was told to just get equipment working long enough to get through the warranty of 30 days. I was also told that this is supposedly what customers want when they buy used equipment so it was ok. They don't expect it to work for long, they just need to save money. I don't believe that myself. I think people expect anything they buy to work well and last a goog long while.
Also this commpny performs service on a lot of restaurant equipment but they don't have any relationships with factories or distributors so they pay what anyone would pay for parts for this equipment then mark it up 100%. So if a customer bought their own part they'd get it for half what this company would charge them.
Also, while I was there the company was engaged to move some equipment for a Subway at OSU-Tulsa. Bob Lomax stole some of this equipment and didn't tell the Subway we ever picked it up. He then sold it to someone else for a considerable profit. Some of it he took home. The owner (Mike Stuart) is fully aware of this because I told him myself. I have never seen a more unethical den of thieves working in a company than I did in the short time I was at this business.

I have been a customer of Restaraunt Equipment and Supply, formerly American Ice Machines, for almost 10 years. Mike Stuart has always dealt with me honestly, fairly, and professionally. Bob Lomax has always managed any needed on-sight repairs in a timely manner and always does a good job.
Obviously there was some sort of misunderstanding to lead to such conclusions and I wasn't there so I don't really know. They have always given me a fair deal, a good price, and they have always done whatever they have said they would.

The first rebuttal to the original report contained many logical fallacies. Perhaps he lacked the education to express himself via written speech, and that would still be a red flag for me, but I had a real difficult time making any sense of the 1st rebuttal. It also makes me wonder if it was a disgruntled employer writing so fast and with such fury that he couldn't keep his thoughts straight, preventing him from expressing complete thoughts and sentences. Finally, I couldn't help getting the impression that it was a desperate attempt to cover his own a**. I appreciate the original report though; calm, to the point, very few fallacies. It sounded and felt like a fair warning, I will never go to that company for anything.

I stand by my account of what I was told to do and saw happen in the time I worked for Mike Stuart (not pruit) I wouldn't buy anything from these crooks nor recommend them. I walked into a job the day after I left them and was promoted to senior tech a month later and make considerably more money and I did it by maintaining my ethics aand integrity.
I knew Bob and Mike much longer than that but never had to do any business with them prior to then. So, I stand by what I saw while I worked there.
