Welcome to mfgforum.net !

This is the discussion place for all the people that gave money to MFG.COM and got nothing in return and the ones that want to.

NEW!!! Visit our Discussion Board and get informed or tell us your story.

Our Story: One day after many false promises we enrolled in the membership and it was hard for my small job shop business to pay $500.00 a month and in one year we paid mfg.com $6,000 with absolutely nothing in return.
We spent countless hours quoting jobs. Our shop's rate is very competitive and towards the end we even try to underbid to see if they are real... We still did not get one single job. The companies posting RFQs on mfg.com are fakes or companies trying to get others to do the bidding for them. Early on we realized that the service mfg.com supose to provide was not working and we asked them to cancel our membership, but they refuse saying that we have a one year contract.

I even met and talk with their CEO Mitch Free that said he will take care of it, but what can one expect from the head LIAR... nothing. He was afraid that I will make scene at that event and other unsuspecting victims will run away.

Mfg.com is bad for the whole machine shop trade getting all of us small shops to fight for nothing. They even have China offering us work.

Beware of them they are crooks! keep your money and voice your opinion.

A formal complaint will be file with FTC about the scam operation of mfg.com

I am also looking for people interested in a class action suit against mfg.com known also as mfgquote.com

We also secured the following domains: mfgquoteforum.com, mfgsucks.com, mfgscam.com to better spread the word to unsuspected victims. For now all these domains point to this website.

We are looking for volunteers to do research and handle some other tasks.

For all of you out there that are thinking to join mfg.com - DO NOT!
They will take your money and deliver nothing. And then will tell you that is your fault... and actually it is because you trust them.
If I had known it in advance I will be saving today $6,000 and a lot of headache.

I found the following discussion about mfg.com

Here is one opinion:

Subject: MFG Quote NEEDS TO BE STOPPED!!!
Please,please,if you are considering MFG just get that idea right out of your head forever!Take the $6,000 + it will cost you for the membership and buy a machine or piece of equipment that you always wanted. I joined and it is a true thorn in the side of my small job shop business. $430.00 a month with absolutly no return.All of the time wasted quoting. My rate is very good as far as shops are concerned. These people Posting RFQs are MFers. They want the lowest quotes and are not even nice about the whole process. They do not return business because they are always bargain shopping. It is bad for the whole machine shop trade. Cheapening everything in a trade that is in its death throws in U.S.A. There is absolutly no screening of the Buyers either.They join for free and many are not even legal companies. Just losers fishing for quote ranges on thier lousy parts!!
