Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I went in to this SUPPOSED MODELING company and this OLD LOSER named David St.John tried to get me to sign up for his FAKE CLASSES to be a Model/Actor. WHAT A JOKE!!! The people that were there are UGLY and SHORT!!!! Check the cheap web page and see for yourself. The place is in a MALL and it's DIRTY and CHEAP!!! David St.John reminds me of a GROSS OLD PERVERT you would see with an overcoat waiting by the schoolgrounds for the kids. He sat there for an hour telling blatant lies about the Entertainment field which he obviously knows NOTHING about. I asked him basic questions about the business and he could not even answer one. He tried to CHARGE ME $1,400 for classes he didn't even know WHAT THEY TEACH!!!!

I had a really bad feeling about him and his crappy company. So, I went home and did some checking in on him and there is NO HISTORY of him or his supposed 42 years in the business!!! HE IS A SCAMMER AND A DIRTY LIAR!!!

Oh yeah they tried to give away a FREE PHOTOSHOOT> WHAT A JOKE I take better pictures on my cell phone!!! Go check out his site and you will see what a LOSER this guy is......

THE AUTHOR OF THIS FAKE RIP OFF REPORT LATER WENT TO JAIL

#2REBUTTAL Owner of company

Google Michael W Fox and read about the 10 counts of sex with a minor plus 10 more counts of causing delinquency of a minor. He claims false arrest and plans to sue the mom. The above rip off report claims I am a fake and claims that free head shots are a rip off.  The only people who would believe these lies are those that want to believe something this silly.
Instead, I am the past Director of Police Athletic League in Boulder, Colorado plus one other city and have owned modeling agencies since 1966. I was the 10 year host of TV's 'PRIME TIME PUBLIC OPINION' in Honolulu from 1986 to 1996. I am a civic minded person that never misses church.

This Fox guy charges $180 to put you on his web site. No wonder he dislikes us we charge nothing to put you on our web site. He was the fake agent at Powers, lied to my staff in 08, lied to me and possibly you and created this fake report. And if you would like to believe such a report without coming in for your interview then your lack of true enthusiasm should keep you at home please.

Thank you for reading.

After reading Michael's report, I'm a bit surprised that he shows such immaturity for one his age. My Granddaughter was schooled there this past winter and she isn't short, fat or ugly. I believe that if he is a professional, as Michael represented himself to me, that these hateful and derogatory comments would never have been written. I'm very disappointed to see Mr. Fox sink to this low of a level. By trying to damage other people in the end only ends up hurting you, Michael, now please grow up; there is room for everyone in this business

PROOF Michael W. Fox "Talentscout" wrote this report - not someone else.

Notice that at the top of the supposed rip off report it says TALENTSCOUT? Does that sound like some young girl's email address? That is what M W Fox's handle/email name is. For further proof go see Michael W. Fox Vault Actors & Management's rip off report, read his rebuttal and look at his TALENTSCOUT word at he top of his rebuttal. I guess - there goes the ballgame "W". Smart readers realize that when you are making fun of someone's age or saying the facility was imperfect or the work force was ugly - something more than a rip off is your issue. What he didn't like about my speaking with one of "his people" (age 15) during a fashion show rehearsal is he got caught in a lie about her father losing his job, which he had not. I was planning to help her pay for her training if it had been so. David St.John, CEO L'Eschelon Models Central LLC

It looks like a competitor has taken it upon himself to pretend he is an upset girl. If it is OK to berate a person for not being young then he wins. As far as our programs go; we let people have training to improve self esteem and we never lie to anyone. Their written agreement states that they have not been promised jobs and that they are taking training for self improvement. We are actually a fine finishing school and badly needed in an era when so many young women have actually isolated themselves with cell phones as their closest companion. Imagine for a moment what the intent of such a sick writer would be. He obviously has a serious inferiority complex. Why ever try to hurt people who are trying to survive in business while actually taking pride in having the very best instructors and a first class location in a shopping mall.. What a parent pays for our program they will actuall save ten times over in avoided mistakes their girl might have made had she not been so adored by her folks that they sent her to finishing school. Thanks for considering that the report is false. David St.John, CEO

RIP OFF REPORT LOOKS WRITTEN BY MICHAEL W FOX OF VAULT MANAGEMENT

#6UPDATE Employee

Tue, January 13, 2009

Michael W Fox of Vault Management, formerly of John Robert Powers, one of the modeling schools frequently referred to in the above manner, recently called L'Eschelon ranting and raving about how ethical he was and how aweful we are. He was upset because he thought we were badmouthing him for losing his cool at a fashion show. We were not. Michael is quite full of himself but generally nice. He used the exact same language about the looking up of David, finding nothing and doubting the 42 years of experience. So if he wrote this trying to sound female it is quite childish. We recommend him. We always forgive idiots. Once a coward writes to hurt someone, it often bounces back and lands on the mystery writer. At least Michael Fox didn't say "he creeped me out". David worked as an instructor at Patricia Stevens School of Modeling in Denver in 1966. Since then he has built 7 modeling companies around the country, most recently on Maui, where he is well regarded by most everyone. His reference there would be Senator Roz Baker. He starred 10 years as TV host of 'Prime Time Public Opinion' CH 22 & 52 Honolulu 1985-95 and was a community leader. L'Eschelon does offer training but helps you pay for it and charges very little compared with others. L'Eschelon prides itself on the truth. Sorry Michael - don't be bitter. Tanya

We were in this company and people there were very friendly to us. We did not see any ugly people there. The big place is not in perfect condition, but it is not dirty. They tried to do all their best to decorate this place. It needs some time and money . We did not understand why you wrote such a bad comment about this company. And why you did not check his HISTORY on internet before you went to his modeling school??? We made some search too, before we came to his place. We found this website http://www.davidstjohnauctioneer.net/ his old site http://st-johnstudiosofhawaii.com/files/courses.htm and new one http://www.modelscentralnw.com/
