At least that's the rumor I heard when I was up at Searchmont, ONT. over the Holidays. (Beautiful country btw)
I thought I saw the famous Carpetologist making donuts with a vacuum hose in the back room and our board queen, beautiful, Gloria cashing out the customers!
Man, everyones selling out these days!!!!
Good Fortune to all and especially, your great Canadian Supplier, KleenKuip;

Ever since Ted found out that the cleaning products are now going eadible Ed, he figgured that he may as well shape them into something the public really likes to eat so that his customer base is much broader! That way when the dozen donuts make it home, half get eaten and the rest can be used to clean the carpets in the home. lol

Actually we do well by the famous Donut Maker Tim Horton's. They make thousands of gallons of coffee, their customers spill 10% and we sell Proxi to clean it up. It all works out well, and by the way Gloria is their best customer.

Good Fortune and the very very best to you and Gloria;

Now there is an idea Ted.I bet the customers of Tim Horton are spilling coffee all the times in their cars as well as their houses. You should supply Tim Hortons direct with the Proxy. That way they can sell it with the coffee and donuts to their customer base. The customers get happy to get out the stains; you get happy because there is lots of Tims in the GTA and across Canada. Win-Win for you both.

Bravo:
I send out thousands of glides each MONTH. 98% are delivered within the normal 2 to 3 weeks after being received,BUT that 2% that isn't still adds up to Hundreds per month. Some are lost in the postal system, so I just resend those that go missing. Sometimes people order under different names and there order is in transit. I don't doubt you ordered a glide or glides, but just wish to locate your order is all. No need to get excited just because I dont remember your name given here. PM me your info, and I will find the status of your order.

Hey.......Pilediver, you know that little slogan you have there.......... ( The harder you work the luckier you get! )
I guess you haven't been working too hard lately, you didn't get lucky with your glides Better go back to work.

Well it seems that Piledriver is really Bob; and ordered glides as Bob, and not Piledriver. I found the order, and as I expected the order had already been shipped out last week within 2 weeks of being ordered. It will be delived to Bob within a couple of days time. Consider this NOT the way to check on your order. A phone call or e-mail will get a response as to status of an order placed.

Hey NR your right, I do work hard and even if you work hard sometimes things happen. I figured if this guy kept coming on to this site in spite of all the negatives being expressed he must honestly be trying to improve. All of us make mistakes and most of us learn from them for the better.
This guy chooses to ignore his e-mail or phone messages. Because I have an alias, Pilediver, and he doesn't recogonize the corrilation between be Bob and "Pilediver" has nothing to do with the fact that he ignored me.
He may be right that the orders were shipped but that's not the point the point is he ignored my requests for him to contact me.
This man is a terrible business man by my account and many other people. Ask yourself who would you rather deal with Greenglides with not problems even if they might be slightly more money or take a crap shoot that you will be lucky and might get a straightforward transaction with this character.
If Ken was on eBay could you imagine what his feedback score would look like?
Nightrider, I guess I'll go back to work tonight and knock off a couple of area rugs to earn a little more "luck". Maybe I should have made my slogan the harder you work the less tolerant you are of some d**khead screwing with your hard earned money.
Now enough of this horsepucky and lets get this thread back to Tim Hortons, hey Nightrider, why don't you buy Kleenquip?

Funny thing is.........I offered to buy KleenKuip over a year ago, and then again just a few months ago.
The answer from TED was NO, NO, NO.
He said he would not know what to do with his new found free time, and would miss all his customers and fun moments he shares with them.
True story, I'm sure Ted will confirm.

ken....Piledriver/Bob brings up a good point. WHY did you ignore yet another customers emails and phone calls, ni matter what the name on the order was??? It seems that AGAIN you need to be called on the carpet on an internet board for a custy to get an answer!
Piledriver...I sent you another PM...can't wait to hear the reply!!!

I think Kenny just likes all the FREE advertising he gets from these boards..........Don't forget.......even bad advertising is worth a bundle when you don't pay for it.........funny thing is, people like the sensation of taking a chance, hoping they will be a winner.
Pilediver/Bob tossed the coin and this is the result, until the coin drops it's anyone guess what Kenny will do, but he always seems to do the right thing.

Hey Piledriver....you get the package yet???

Nope! . I ordered on Dec 29th and paid that day by PayPal.
Ken claims in his Tuesday Jan 17th e-mail to me that the glides were sent out the week before. He then states I should have my order "shortly." Given that he is in Calgary and I am in Victoria at the very worst if it was sent buy the slowest means possible say UPS or mail it should not take anymore than 5 business days to be delivered one province over. So based on the order going out on Friday the 13th I should at the very worst recieved it on Friday.
In any fairness I can extend to Ken and for the beneifit of anyone else considing doing business with him I will be sure to let everyone know what happens with this order.

Ken's glides were recieved today. According to Canada Post standards
http://www.canadapost.ca/tools/pg/manual/c08-e.asp#23195 - http://www.canadapost.ca/tools/pg/manual/c08-e.asp#23195
the item should be recieved within 4 days. If you look back chronoligicaly to when this issue became public on this board it is very apparent he only sent out the glides after the fact and lied that they were sent out the week before. Unfortunately the postmark date is not visible on the envelope. The invoice, which is hand written, shows a date shipped of Jan 12th. Doesn't matter anymore. I don't need to say anymore on this as Ken's actions will likely continue to speak volumes about himself.

It is truly sad to see this kind of a thread continue, but sometimes you need to hound procrastinaters in puplic to get something done.

Date Posted: 24/January/2006 at 3:01pm
It's standard practice for ken...just think how many there may be out there that can't call him on the carpet publicly...and he just ignores them and keeps the money...
So sad!
BUT...I doubt he's selling much...
Where are the OP, TM, Porty, OP/RX thing he was brining out soon???
