Weird, I don't get any mountaineering pages when I google:

"teen lesbian orgy neptune mountaineering sucks titty shaved round asses"

... at least, not in the 1st 1000 hits or so...

No worries, it should be back... Google generally doesn't return multiple pages from a site for the same search query. It was outranked by the "positive thread" and now that it's gone, will likely return when they get around to recrawling the page.

bump, 'cause Gary or someone else needs to be public about the suckiness of CS the last few years.

and 30 years back Gary would wait on you, and ask you if you wanted to go climb later.

But sadly, they could get better tomorrow and it would take a long time for them to see the results, because so many have been turned off for so long.

go see Larry or Marshal. Larry carries Garmont (i think); I know he carries G3.

Yeah, Larry carries both Garmont and Scarpa, and a bunch of skis (dunno what).

They said my boots came from a special order I had talked to the hard goods manager about 1.5 months ago and I thought I remembered him saying they would have a pair of 25s. After repeatedly asking them to please check the back, they came up empty handed. It turns out that 26.5 was the smallest shell they had. Oh well. I probably needed a 26.5 anyway

I left my skis for the tech to mount and told him I would give him a few extra bucks for an extra careful mount. I didn't want any prereleases on these things.

They even gave me a student discount.

I had been a loyal customer before this incident, even driving down from Colorado Springs for my last pair of boots.

Used to spend a lot of time there in the 80's drinking beer and watching slide shows. Sucks to hear they are treating people like this.

Bump

**Headcase22** · 12-18-2007, 08:29 AM

This is funny. I just ran across this forum and had to laugh. I laughed because i was there the night this whole thing went down.

I was in the boot area getting my new Spirit 4's molded the whole time this adimmen guy was there. Adimmen came in with his big reverse camber spatula looking skis and TLT bindings. He had such an attitude and was only concerned with bashing on the guy's working there. Adimmen didn't make it clear that his boots were on hold there and they didn't have his size in back. Once adimmen stopped being so sarcastic and bashing the guy he finally figured out they were on some hold shelf somewhere else. While the guy went in back to get his boots adimmen got on his phone to tell someone, in a loud manner, that these guys suck. Everyone in the boot area could hear him cussing.

The neptune guy came back with the boots and adimmen was just awful to him and kept demanding to get the next size down but they didn't have it. The neptune guy was trying to get his info on the ski ticket for shop work and adimmen would not give him his correct height and weight. Adimmen just kept saying to put it down like that because he didn't want to prerelease. Adimmen, don't you know you can set your own din's???

Well, all i know is adimmen was a true ass and i and all the other customers were surprised that the neptune guy took all his crap. By the way, when adimmen left the store all the customers and the guy's working there just laughed at what a front range poser this guy was.

Also, Bent Gate truly does suck. My girlfriend went in there last year to get sized for some spirit 3's. She's a size 9 women's. At least 5 guy's in there said she a was a 27.5. I could get 4 finger's behind the heel. They've mismounted my dynafit's on my goode ski's not knowing to mount the spirit's to dynafit differently. They didn't want to work with me on the mismount. I also tried to get info on a climb in clear creek canyon and no one in there could help me. Shouldn't they know, it's their backyard?

Adimmen, i'm glad they banned you from the store. You were a true prick and you deserved it. It's people like you that need to shop online. Now go take your big poser ski's and ski loveland pass with the other loser's that don't want to hike and earn their turns.

**Fritz** · 12-18-2007, 08:37 AM

Wow. Even if this is true it still doesn't change the fact that there are hundreds of people who think Neptune Mountaineering is worthless. Including myself. I guess that makes me a front range poseur.

**Tunco** · 12-18-2007, 08:42 AM

**JTrue** · 12-18-2007, 08:42 AM

Wow, all you fuckwads from Neptune Mountaineering really have no clue what customer service is. Do you think maybe you should apologize and stop creating aliases to lie about the events that occurred? As said before, it is kinda strange that you were in the store the same time adimmen was, happened to overhear everything, and then happened to randomly stumble on this forum and this thread. Post then smoke crack douchenozzle...

Edit: BTW, bumping this thread just allows more people to see it. You are some dumb motherfuckers!

**Trackhead** · 12-18-2007, 08:44 AM

Interesting concept. Big skis=poser. I didn't know that was the case.

I shouldn't even waste my time replying but you are flat out lying and are obviously a Neptune employee. I would think you guys would mix up the story a bit. You know, throw in some guy trying on leathers or maybe even a Megaride.

Your need to insult me as a front range poser and a guy who doesn't like to hike are comical but so clearly your modus operandi. Nice touch insulting Bent Gate along the way.

It is clear you still haven't learned anything from this response. You need to read up on the first rule of holes. Stop digging!

I never cussed and only whipped out my cell phone when the salesman wouldn't stop bugging me with asinine questions like are those water skis, you don't need skis that fat, you don't need boots that stiff, etc. I absolutely never cursed but was a smartass.

I also didn't give the boot tech my wrong weight. I wrote down 190 pounds because that is what I weigh when I step out the door for a typical tour.

MAN! What a coincidence! You just happened to run across this thread, and happened to be there in the boot fitting area that night!

It's all clear to me now, All these people who have shared these bad experiences are all wrong, and you are right! Thanks for clearing that up for me.

JONG - You're doing it wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oooh oooh.... Can I tuch u? U r Sooo Smert an Purty. If ur such a gud Neptune worker, y did ur boyfrend go to Bent Gate ta get boots?

**Crinkle** · 12-18-2007, 09:08 AM

ps members of this board work at the bent gate, i am sure they'll be amused by your weak attempt at bashing. yeah they show ski movies there too.

another vote for a guy that has never step foot in neptune and never will.

next up: google bomb. everyone do a few google searches for "neptune mountaineering sucks"
should be in the top 10 by days end.

**Pow4Brains** · 12-18-2007, 09:10 AM

Got an email back from Neptune that I had sent them with a link to this thread. How dare you call someone an idiot right to their face adimmen!

We are getting a lot of emails about this. FYI, this guy did lose it in our store, calling the staff idiots, right to one employees face. It was pretty bad. I have been here ten years, and I have never seen a customer treat the staff like that. It’s sad, and again, thanks for the heads up.

Roland

Maybe you should figure out why he "lost it" and try to correct the problem vs. being a pussy by hiding behind an alias.

Neptude =

**Headcase22** · 12-18-2007, 09:13 AM

Hey Adimmen, why do you have those ski's anyway????

I spoke to a buddy of mine, who heli guides in Valdez, about those ski's. He said, why would anyone want to own a pair of those crap things. He said, we give those to our fat ass doctor and lawyer clients who think they can ski powder and can't.

He want's to know why you put dynafit's on them? You got a big boot and big ski why the little, din of 10, TLT binding. You're not actually going to skin up with those ski's are you??

He said, if anyone showed up on one of his trips with that set up he'd laugh his ass off.

By the way, i live in CB. I wouldn't live on the front range if you paid me. Being around you little girly weekend warriors on your day's off is bad enough. But don't stop bringing your cash. We, who live in the mountains, love your cash, or for adimmen his parents cash, and the laughs you give us.

Hey retard. I regularily ski with a guy on reverse camber, heavy ass skis who can probably out climb you on your sissy stix. Wanna give it a go?

I'd 'laugh my ass off'.

**Danno** · 12-18-2007, 09:17 AM

If Neptune was smart, they would stop trying to dispute adimmen's story and start addressing the larger complaints in this thread. I wasn't there, and therefore I will never know exactly what went down between adimmen and the staff. But it doesn't much matter to me and many others, as Neptude has lost our business through a long history of poor CS. Yet all they can do is create aliases to try and discredit adimmen? Does anyone there realize that isn't the point?

**Headcase22** · 12-18-2007, 09:18 AM

Damn, this is fun. I should have posted on this site years ago.

**soylent green** · 12-18-2007, 09:20 AM

Jesus Fucking Christ! The vendetta against this shop has got to stop! A few people had bad experiences there, so what. Don't go there if you don't like them. TGR has the power to crucify Neptune in public. Why we need to do this is beyond me. We can really hurt their business with what we are doing here, or not. Let it fucking go, this is not who we are. This board helps people with cancer, spreads stoke, and brings skiers together. Keep it that way.

I'm dissapointed.
