Michelle Nelson rugging "Beware"

[Wazukie]

I just did a google search on this business and found it interesting that the only place I could even find a review was right here.  Even the BBB gives it an A+ rating.  Also interesting that  our own BearPaw endorses the business by advertising for it.

She was removed from advertisements and site ad sponsorships a long time ago.

I didn't say that Hunt-Wa endorsed her, I said that BearPaw Outfitters did and I'm pretty sure that they are one in the same, but then again, I could be wrong.

Bearpaw/Dale does own hunt WA.. what exactly do you mean he endorses her then? Previously before issues were known she was a moderator and advertised here but since all the issues and bad reviews she was removed.

*Just seen his website, looks like it hasn't been updated in a long time. I'm not sure he even knows that link is still there

I mean exactly what I said, BearPaw, by advertising her shop on BearPaw Outfitters Web page, would seem to still be  giving her his endorsement as a good Taxidermist.  I find it interesting that Hunt-Wa is the only place I can find any review of her shop after everything I have read over the years.  I don't know Mechelle nor do I have any experience with her work, other than what I read on this forum.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I didn't realize that link was still there. I can assure you that after the experience my hunters had with MNT I do not endorse her. I will get that removed asap, thanks again.

I figured that was the case Dale, I was just saying    Got's to update the site every now and again I reckon. Still interesting that this is the only place that I see any kind of review.

If you're quick and view her Facebook page you'll see reviews once in a while... then some seem to disappear

I find it strange that's one of the first business pages that doesn't have an option to review. Usually there's a star rating 1-5 system.

The BBB rating is interesting. Evidently her dissatisfied customers are not filing complaints with them. If she is a member of BBB they will work with both parties to resolve the issues.

Problem is you can't get in contact with her to even get your stuff back. I tried calling again today and left a message. I have tried 3 times now in a week to contact her with no response. I would gladly take my animal back at this point and eat the 400 deposit I gave her just can't seem to reach her. I'm sure a lot of the problem is she spends the deposits and then has to wait for someone else to bring some money in to get previous clients work done.

That is my point there, from previous posts. She will not quit doing this if people let her get away with it. If they let her just keep $400 at a time. There is no reason, other than ethics which obviously don't apply to her, for her to change.

Give her money and animal, don't see either back... Make a few dozen calls, and then just want the animal back and keep the money. Sounds like a steady income for her.

I blame her for theft and fraud but also blame customers for not pursuing further action that allows to to keep doing it. 

That's all, I'm out.

Anyone ever wonder why she left Florida?

MNT is like the Terrell Owens of Taxidermy.  Wherever it goes, drama is soon to follow.

She has an F rating at current address BBB but had an A+ in her old Olympia address and this one shows up first on google. I just filed a heads up complaint through that one to point potential victims to the current info.

Just left another message with her trying to set a date to pick up my deer. I'm going to leave messages the next few days and if I still get no response I'm going to file a report. Hopefully that will get the ball rolling on getting my deer back.

Have you tried messaging the FB page "Washington Bear Hunting?"  She's an admin on there - and is very active on it.
