Michael lies and blames factories when truth is he doesnt have the capital to pay them. Hell just hope he gets enuff 'pre orders' when he doesnt the factory moves on as HE wasted their time. Then he blames the factory and gives his buyers excuses and their love of anime keeps them engaged. He literally calls around to various factories all the time as he does not have one factory because he cant do good biz to keep one on deck. He has given me sob story after sob story and was broke and damn near homeless when we met. He even still glosses clothes I paid for. Hes used me for over 1000 to get hats and a shoe mold and now that hes doing well i got blocked from everything no product or paid back. He takes then blocks u and fronts like hes self made. I hope all these animes use the crap out him one day. Trash person. Stop giving ur money to a man who doesnt have the items in stock when u pay him and makes u wait because he doesnt have the cash to pay the factory yet. Ass backward biz
I wish I would have known what I was signing up for when dealing with the owner after receiving a Facebook recommendation that "the owner” was looking for a videographer, I asked for more details, as would any business professional would. In ANY business transaction that’s a common ethics perception when engaging any business man. After weeks of talking and motivating "the owner” to get off his a*s and produce an ad, we finally get content created.
The first video ad that company has ever produced. Drawing in record sales, with other 50k views plus his "engagement went through the roof. Prior to creating the content, I urged him to get off his a*s to come into my studio, NO MONEY DOWN, let’s get it shot and see how successful it would be. So after it’s success and records sales number (legit or non legit, who knows at this point) I send over my invoice $400.00, then "the owner” completely blocks me on ALL social media. Appalled, I immediately contacted the BBB (which they already had multiple open claims about the company) .
After multiple attempts to reach out to "the owner” pleading for him to pay his invoice for services rendered because he is taking food out of my kids mouths. He then tells me that he thought it was free service because I said "don’t bring any money on day of shooting”. I also mentioned that I wouldn’t work on the ad until we get some types of compensation in place, maybe even ad rev(15%). But that didn’t stop him from continually begging me to work on the Ad after it was filmed.
Even before posting review, I reached out to him to cover the invoice, all I ever get from him are rude, counter-productive, demeaning insults. Months has gone by watching this company create other victims. No more. I should have spoken up early. Some people don’t understand the value of Ads, I get it. I also get that I will probably never get that invoice paid. I accept that there may have been miscommunication, but wrong in is. Pay up pal.
When he was up and coming he also took over 1000 for me to fulfill a deadline for hats and never gave me product or paid me back. Hes gotten where he is off using ppl and never returning their investment or paying them
I have sent over $200 into this "business" with nothing to show for it. The owner Michael Bowden was constantly lacking energy...self centered and rude. He said I'd have to pay twice for my Goku shoes when I invested in the kickstarter long ago. I sent him tons of PayPal's and still have nothing to show. He told me id have to pay again now that the website is up and finished as my kick started investment is gone. I received no product
