No I measured it, and it's 3/4".  Also, I actually went to his shop today and showed up (unannounced).  He wasn't there but I talked to the people who were building the cabinets.  The shop was like a garage sort of shop with a small office up front.  They had about 2000-3000 square feet, and there was a ziplog baggie with what I would estimate to be about 200 clips (enough for about 25 machines or so).  They had about 15 panel tops that were all 3/4" pre-cut and lying against one another.  They were not 1".  They also had a big pile of the particle board, and the guy explained that's how they do their clips until they get their shipment in (he spoke english and spanish, and appeared to be someone who helps build the cabinets.)

They had a huge bag of 1.25" clips and a huge pile of those paricle board spacers.  They did have 3 of the 3/4" clips left, and the I was told that they were waiting on the 3/4" clips to come in.

If it's true that this will be happening until February, there are going to be more people displeased with the wood spacers on the wrong sized clips.  Hopefully some of them will find this thread before going through the same thing I just went through.

All the suppliers online only supply the clips for the 1" thick wood tops.  Personally, I think that if he can't get the right clips, he should offer to redo the top panel instead of putting on the wrong clips and dealing with unhappy customers in the mean time.

I refuse to put this cabinet on location as it looks like ass with those particle board spacers in there.  I only went in there because I figured he only did this to me, but it does appear he's doing this to everyone, just like he said.  That's the clips they use...

Does anyone know where I can find 3/4" clips?  I know they exist because I have them on my other cabinet.  I guess I could cut a new top from my own wood, except then I would need to get t-molding to fit the 1" wood.

Gosh I wish this guy just did this right the first time.  I can't believe he thinks this is my responsibility!

I thought we decided that your old cabinet had a 1" top?

Ok let me get this straight. You paid a guy 1500 bucks that you dont know personally for a cabinet before you get it.  You didn't get alot of things you should have......artwork, right clips,metal control panels, dust washers, etc
When he delivers it you don't refuse it.

You shave off 50 bucks off ( a whole 3% ) the purchase price by mutually agreeing to cut ebay out of the deal and thereby cutting out your official proof of what you were supposed to get. You have nothing in writing except some emails which could have been modified.

The guy who you are calling a liar and everything else has 428 positive feedbacks in 3 years on ebay, 1 neutral ( which was a guy that had to wait a month for his cabinet ) and 1 negative ( which was a customer that gave a check that bounced twice ).
Other than your just one of the good guys here, ( and we just know you wouldnt do it ) how do we know and where is some proof that you didnt get a "deal" on a less than perfect cab, and now want to get the extras free by dragging his name around in the mud......Since this is what he claims in the email you post.

Really, i do want to believe YOU. BUT where is some PROOF that he is the crook not you?

The previous posts strikes me as odd.  Here is hsstie ,who hasn't posted on the message boards for 9 months, digging up a 2 week old thread and posting a response in defense of a seller that has obviously not been on the up and up.   ::)

If it walks like a duck,  flys like a duck,  and quacks like a duck...I'd be more inclined to think it's not an elephant.
