Report
I was told Howard Stein Hudson was trying to to a proposal for some project. The sales rep gave me his cell phone and his office phone. When I called back to say your emergency order would be done same day, exactly what you requested, he ignored the call. EMailed the next day. and cancelled the job. If I had read the previous reviews I would have realized these people arent serious and I cant do business with them.
