Marjen Machines?
Anybody dealt with these folks? They have good feedback but somehow
the name seems to me to have some kind of negative connotations. Thank You, Eric R Snow |

Marjen Machines?
I bought a harig grind all from em took about three weeks to get it and a
whole bunch of threats and emails , finally called em and got it a couple of days later fed ex I think their either overwhelmed by the amount of business they are doing or they have a bunch of shill auctions running to get the feedback up they closed 114 auctions one day last month |

I won a couple big micrometers from them. So far all I know for sure is that
their shipping is very slow. Just got an email that the items shipped (after about 2 weeks wait.) Hope the item quality and the packing are better than the promptness in shipping.

If its the surplus machinery place in Bristol (Forestville?), CT, I was
there about a month ago. Seemed like the usual surplus machine places with lots of big old production machines. I bought an old Wade #5 bench lathe and saw, briefly, the 'office'. My guess is that computers, email, and possibly even shipping regular things (not big machines) are probably pretty new to them.... "Eric R Snow" wrote in message ... Anybody dealt with these folks?

I remember buying a tool holder from them on Ebay. No problem on this small
purchase. karl "Eric R Snow" wrote in message ... Anybody dealt with these folks? They have good feedback but somehow the name seems to me to have some kind of negative connotations. Thank You, Eric R Snow |

I would hate to lump them in with Babin if it wasn't true. I think I'll just watch them for now. Thanks for all the replies. ERS |

Marjen Machines? A satisfied customer
I just received my winning e-bay auction item, 3801511937, from them. I
must admit that I was a bit apprehensive after reading some of the replies (after I had already won the bid and sent in my money). After winning the auction Marjen quoted my $36 shipping. I sent them an e-mail and politely asked by what method they were planning on shipping the parts because my eyeball guess at the weight was about 20 lbs and the UPS ground was about $13 to $18 from their ZIP to mine. I received a response from them with in a day, stating that the weight was 39 lbs and that shipping would be $16 and change. A very minor note: a few of the parts in my winning lot appear to be from B'port clones, not all the pulleys are rough castings w/ the 2J xxx P/N on them (and the ones that are machined on the backside have P/Ns that do not appear to related to the 2J parts list that I have. All in all I am pleased with the purchase. Now all I really need to complete the 2J head is a motor. Eric R Snow wrote: Anybody dealt with these folks?
