I am so glad I saw this video. I just called their 800# and spoke with Ted. Super nice guy. Said that he will be back on their feet within a few weeks.
That would be awesome.
A number of years ago i bought a grapple. Paid up front, waited 4 months and it showed up. I still love it. Made great products, i hope they can reorganize.
Brock, they are located a few miles from were I live. Their facility is a massive size building. The Corriher family had been in the tractor business for years in downtown Newton, NC. I bought a tractor from them about 15 years ago. They do have legal problems and I hope they can resolve it.
Me too. My father worked for Ted's uncle in Lincolnton for over 25 years. Charles opened Corriher Implement in Newton after he returned from the war in the 40's. They had the Newton and Lincolnton dealerships with Charles's brother Ted running it. That's where little Ted got his name.
At this point I wouldn't give them a red cent until the impliment was sitting on my trailer and strapped down.
I bought a 72” wicked grapple for my 4720 about 8 years ago, the thing has been flawless, no issues, it got damaged in shipping when I purchased it and EA sent me new hoses and fittings, missing tooth, and also discounted my grapple cause the tack welded tooth wasn’t fully welded, I fixed it myself, customer service was excellent
Hopefully they can get their issues fixed and get back to making quality products
These small businesses that have a rapid expansion and cannot fulfill orders in a reasonable time should stop taking orders until they catch up. But they are afraid to turn down an order because that customer might not come back when product is available again.
Your honesty is refreshing partly because it is so rare these days! I have a set of pallet forks from EA that were on order for 3 or 4 months. Like you, I hope they succeed because they do make good products, but regaining trust that has been lost is very difficult. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I am one of those customers 😒. I ordered the Wicked 84 Inch Heavy Duty Offset & Angle Landscape Rake with hydraulic angle, offset, and tail wheel. Paid upfront like many before and after me. It ended up spending more money on another manufacturer to settle for something that I really didn’t want. Hopefully they do somehow make it through, and fulfill orders that have been placed.
I have always found that even though you might think it is the hardest thing to do it reality it is the easiest thing.....Admit your failure, your mistake, your shortcoming and it is much easier to work toward a resolution and move forward. Staying silent or ignoring what happened will eat at your mind and body if you have a conscience. You are correct Brock; a vast majority of people will forgive you if you simply admit something was your doing or unavoidable. Great video Brock!! You're a good man Charlie Brown.
At a minimum EA is obligated to communicate with pending order clients. It's just the right thing to do.
Everything you say is spot on. I purchased a wicked grapple years ago and it’s top notch. I doubt I’d be so forgiving if I hadn’t received it. I hope they recover because they were an unbelievably good company.
Brock, thank you for speaking to this situation with EA. I was surprised by the video. I purchased and received a 6 ft cutter from them last year; yep, it took about 4-5 months to come in. Cutter is built tough but it doesn’t cut good because of not having suction blades. But we will make do. As I’ve mentioned, I’m a retired tractor dealer, just a small one. I learned years ago to just tell the truth and say I’m sorry to my customer, usually face to face, when I made a mistake. For years, we ordered up to $40K of equipment for our customers with no more than a signature on a sales order. They paid when their new equipment was picked up or delivered. Only at the last of our tenure, did we begin taking small deposits on orders as the value of someone’s signature began to fade in our society. My speculation is that the creditors of EA have decided to let them continue in business as the best yielding method for the creditors to get paid in full. I suspect those creditors will have some of their own professionals on site this time. Appreciate what you do!
You are dead on with your analysis and what they should do. There products are great as I own several of them. I hope they get through these tough times.
Being upfront and honest is the way to go, most folks tend to make mountains out of mole hills.
From experience it is very difficult to scale and grow business while making sure all the T's are crossed and I's are dotted. We do learn from our mistakes.
It is so hard. I don’t blame EA for going through a struggle
My advice: talk to your customers
True story, they will have a lot of work to do to regain my trust. I was only moment's from being one of their victim's. That being said the quality of their implements is hard to match.
Good video Brock, but this is why I buy John Deere and Frontier exclusively. I’ll pay the extra money for piece of mind and stability any day of the week.
Agreed. Gotta give that customer base reassurance
Very well said Brock. I would like to buy a backblade from them. I have trust issues about ordering from them if they start back up. If they would bill when they ship it would help. I too think they should follow your advice and do a video facing the camera and be honest. That would help with the trust too. Thanks
There are plenty of other USA built attachment companies that are also family run. There also way cheaper than EA and still in business. Tomahawlk and Express steel are just two.
I hope they can come back. I bought a grapple a few years ago and really wanted to buy an original style Wicked from EA with the long bottom for my John Deere 1023e. I just couldn't get comfortable with the idea of paying full price up front and waiting 4-6 months to get the product. I guess with my background as a commercial loan officer that underwrites businesses credit applications for a living, there was something telling me that this model of pay now, receive the product months later was very likely indicitave of extreme cash flow constraints on their part. I agree with you Brock, it appears they grew much too quickly than they could financially stand. I hope they can reorganize and be honest with their loyal customer base.
Great honest video. Too many people don’t get it anymore.
I have a 4’ rotary cutter and set of pallet forks from EA. Also a Simca T-56 tiller I bought through them. They were up front about the wait. Great products. Hopefully they get their business kinks worked out.
Thanks as a new tractor owner i just found E. A. Like the Looks of products. Wanting. But trust is everything. Hope they get it together
thank you for your time about ea I wonder what happened to them I used to watch their video
I know the subject of EA can really polarize some people, but I agree wholeheartedly about facing forward. The biggest mystery to me in all of this was the complete lack of any forthright communication from them. Maybe their current litigations demand their silence, but I think even a little communication would have gone a long way...certainly couldn't be worse than the radio silence up until now. At the end of the day, they are an American company that builds great products (some of which I own), and their current situation leaves a lot of good folks out of work, and some customers on the hook for big dollars and justifiably angry. I hope they get back on their feet, learn whatever can be learned, fill the orders and move forward. The whole episode is just sad all around...
Great video Brock. I agree with your points. Hopefully EA can get things sorted out and continue making attachments and fulfill customers orders. I also agree Ted should have notified paying customers what to expect going forward.
You nailed it Brock. I don't think I have EVER heard a bad thing about EA. If they take your advice their customers would come back in a short time.
The owners speech; I always thought he had a drinking problem?
Well said. I also made mistakes on my first 2 companies. Business side is hard to figure out. But what you said, is spot on
Nice video. I hope they listen.
Good words Brock! I have their Wicked grapple and love it. I do hope they can survive, we need American manufacturing businesses!
Thanks Brock
There was a lot of rumors flying a few months back. Frivolous or lavish spending, whatever. I did read an article that they were in a legal battle against their contractor over their new or expanded facility. Of course, the contractor claimed they werent paid, EA claimed they did shoddy or incomplete work. No idea what actually happened or what the outcome was.
Great job
Good video. Thanks
Good job on this one, hope they watch and learn, btw, your appearance is looking great
Spot on!!👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
Thank you
Did some work for a guy who worked for them for 6 years last week.... I dont have high hopes, but i hope they can come back.
I don’t see that video might took it down. I was looking them about time I bought a grapple for my small tractor. I bought a work saver grapple. Had it in couple weeks. I got in a sticky situation myself on offset smoker. Guy shut his doors no communication tons people out thousands of bucks. Including myself. I agree be upfront. I got all but my deposit back thankfully. Great video 👍🏻👍🏻
It is in their Facebook group, not their page or RUclips
@@RockhillfarmYT thanks must missed that
Brock, thanks so much for making this video. I wondered what happened and really had no idea. I had tried to contact EA through several channels about one week ago - no response. As you said it seemed like they just disappeared. I really wanted a grapple from EA, but looks like I'll have to go to my 2nd choice - Homestead 'Pinnacle', unless I hear of some other recommendations; that I would certainly welcome. I really wish EA would make some type of announcement - either they are going out of business or will be coming back and to just be patient. Thanks again, Brock.
everyone make mistakes all our lives thats how we learn and by moving ahead good video! thanks
I talked on Facebook with them and they were very rude. Asking why they're equipment was better than everything else out there. I received ridicule and even a few threats from other people in the cult.I'm actually sorry they are making a comeback.
I have had issues in the past with how they talk to customers.
They don't elevate their products. They talk down about everyone else. Its quite unappealing.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for any sort of mea culpa from EA. A narcissist never apologizes, or feels the need to. They just use their charisma to find new people (customers) to feed off of and leave the others behind.
Brock you seam like such a humble man an I appreciate your incite and perspective. Thanks for sharing!
Morning
I see Todd put his house on the market
Ted screwed the pooch!
There are better attachments than EA. The real question is how did you drop the weight? Do a video on that!
78 pounds in 6 months by eating carnivore
I did a live stream talking about it, but when I hit the one year mark, I’m going to do a full video
He might be doing it sooner, but I don’t want to talk about it too much
I Lost 50 Pounds in 90 Days with the Carnivore Diet

@@RockhillfarmYT Thanks Brock! I appreciate the response, and insight on how you did it!
Man to man, face to face, with a handshake! You bringeth insight and lay the work for integrity to grow! EA should hire you..I would in a New York minute! Just a simple guy from Kentucky.
I am interested in viewing that video. Was it on this platform?
It was in their Facebook group
Buy second hand and fix it up or buy new from the local tractor dealer
Brock, great message. Just a tip - I'm guessing you are reading from a script, but gotta look directly at the camera, more than at the script.
I have no script. I turn the camera on with no plan at all.
I look at the side because I have a screen over there and I can see how I’m framed
I hardly ever get comments about it, but I know I do it sometimes
@@RockhillfarmYT It's so hard not to look at that dang screen. Both my canon and go pro have it.
@@OutdoorsEngineer for a long time, I had a Sony camera where the flip screen was above the camera and I could stare at it, and it would still look like I was looking at the lens.
Just upgraded to a higher end canon camera and it has that side flip screen. Hard habit to break.
I don’t have time to watch one of the videos right now, but I just saw that you have a nice little channel going of your own.
If you ever have any questions or want to chat, feel free to send me an email or a Facebook message
@@RockhillfarmYT Thanks! Already part of your Facebook group :)
I would never deal with a company that you have to pay 100% upfront.
Even if they go back in business, 100% upfront is highly unlikely to fly again. They will be lucky to get 25% upfront.
Nope, not paying until product is in hand. Not here to loan money with no interest
@@jburch1544 I agree 100%
Don’t give them a penny until they have paid back all the folks they screwed over.
I have to disagree here. I do however hate the fact that a prominent tractor attachment company went out of business. We need more and better attachments available and at an affordable and reasonable price structure. Personally, I had terrible interaction with them and their fan boys of the brand. They were always downgrading any other brand of attachments, they were very arrogant and left a distaste in my mouth so to speak. I really, really wanted to buy a grapple from them last year, but I cannot, will not, shall not support a company that has terrible business practices when it comes to talking bad about other companies and saying buy from them only or you buy junk. End of story. This was all way, way before they ran into the current situation that they are in.
I had negative experiences with them too. I hated the way they did customer service
I’m not rooting for them or against them. I have one main point to make: if you are going back into business then you owe your customers an apology
@@RockhillfarmYT I totally agree sir.
I Will give you 4277.22 reasons why they are bad.
The way they behaved with TTWT was disgusting. What goes around comes around.
I don’t know that story, but a lot of people are turned off by the way they do customer service
For someone who admittedly doesn’t know what’s going on I think you are taking a lot of liberty and guessing and I think we should all wait until we know the facts.
This has been ongoing for at least a year now. This is one of the most honest takes I’ve seen.
Oh me… this is disheartening to hear. I had no idea this was happening as I’ve been out of the implement market for a time.
I mean, I’m not sure why we’re making videos now about common sense?
Because "sense" is becoming uncommon.
u might not like HOW , but the SAID SOMTHING , ur not Ghosted , and you have been in his shoes . some would say if your not part of the solution then your the problem
Great video Brock! Where can I find the video Ted put out, I’ve looked on their Facebook and RUclips and the website but don’t see any video other than some posts made on the Facebook page
It was posted in the everything attachments Facebook group
@@RockhillfarmYTThanks Brock I’ll check there again
You are way out of line! I would file a law suit against you if you talked about my business like that!
I was completely complementary. I talked about how hard it is to run a business and how I sympathize with them and how hard this must be.
What negative did you see in there?
All I said, is that if you want to go back to selling products, you need to talk to your customers
@@RockhillfarmYT Your just another arrogant RUclipsr running your mouth, based on no facts!
@@tjt1992 did you get that impression from the very beginning when I said I don’t know anything about the situation but here’s some advice that applies to anyone in any area of life no matter what is happening
Stand up and talk to the people who are affected
You have no knowledge what is happening, and you’re trying to tell them how to fix it! You are way out of line!
Name any of A Million different scenarios and they all have the exact same answer.
If you unexpectedly shut down without delivering your orders, and now you want to go back to selling products then you need to come out and tell your customers that they can trust you
It doesn’t matter if they were struck by lightning or swept up in a Sharknado or abducted by aliens. The circumstance does not matter. Talk to your customers.
@@RockhillfarmYT You don’t know the facts! Your just trying to make another video!
I say if you're gonna speak on something, know all the information before you come at someone. You don't have the right to tell someone what to do with their business. See this video age has taught me one thing, people do a lot of finger pointing 👉 from behind the camera. Calling them out is some high school shyt and for clicks.
You are correct, but this video didn't do any of the things you are claiming. He's stating facts. Website disappeared, no replies on orders; facts.
Seems like he is pretty pro EA and wishing them the best.
Brock did exactly the opposite of what you’re suggesting. He clearly explained he doesn’t know what happened, and he gave perspective as an owner of a failed business (as well as EA customer) how to maintain/regain trust going forward.
Finger pointing? calling them out?
What video did you watch? I thought I was incredibly positive towards EA in this video.
When I watched the video that Ted from EA put out, I really felt his pain
My messages is simple. If you’re going to sell product again, face the camera and tell your story. that is my message for them because they are public.
People will accept about any failure from you if you just say it out loud
Found the EA fanboi
@jimmaag4274 phuck off buddy. Just saying get all the facts in before you come at a company or person. That's it!
