I just opened a new pizza restaurant in Colorado Springs and with a limited budget was looking for an affordable pos system to take orders and track sales etc. I was looking for used equipment on craigslist and came across Rocky Mountain POS. Curt Hollis contacted me and came to my store to do a demo for me. I liked the software and the affordable price tag but had no idea what I was in for. I placed the order with him and set up a time for him to come to the store to set the system up. When he showed up he had not ordered my system and instead set up his demo equipment. He would return in a week with my system and install it. A week later no word from Mr. Hollis. Finally the following day I get a text message from him telling me he was snowed in on a hunting trip. I recently moved from the mountains and have never seen a hunting location that you could send text messages from. And if he could text, why couldn't he call? Fianlly he showed up 2 weeks later and installed a used computer and software registered to a company in Denver that had gone out of business. I called him and told him that I was not satisfied with the computer and wanted a new one. He said that is what he does, refurbishes old computers and pawns them off to unsuspecting consumers like myself. He never told me that he uses refurbished equipment. As a matter of fact he led me to believe it would be a new Dell pentium 4 book pc. He kept telling me how much faster the new computers are compared to his demo unit. He agreed to replace the used computer with a new one and after a couple of weeks of avoided phone calls he finally showed up with the "new" computer. It turns out to be a new case with old components installed. What a sorry son of a b***h this guy is. I hope anyone looking for a deal on a computer system has the forsight to search for this guy here before doing business with this jerk.

Wes Crosby

AUTHOR: Curt - Colorado Springs (USA)

I installed my demo system for Wes because I knew he wanted to be able to practice on it before he was to open approx a MONTH later.

I did this because Wes's father, the one banking the new business, called me to negotiate the price.  We agreed that Wes was fairly competetant with computers and I would only spend a very minimal amount of time for training.

On that note I reduced the price $500 to help them out and because I hadnt received the equipment I had ordered for them by the time I was to leave for an annual hunting trip, I brought my demo unit for them to get used to.

The software I installed was again temporary because we were going to erase all the sales and timecard history before he opened therefore starting from 0.

We typically have either New and refurbished pc's of the same fast speeds, memory, OS, etc... And am always happy to offer both.

The statement of a "new" case with old components is absolutely false.  I specifically ordered that unit for Wes because he told me he was unhappy with the refurbished pc.

The bottom line is I wanted to help Wes succeed and at no time was he without an operating system, especially when he was actually open for business.

He has everything he was promised and at a very good price.

Still a Scumbag

AUTHOR: Rocky Mtn Pizza Co - Colorado Springs (United States of America)

Curt installed a software program called Log Me In. this software allows a user to access a computer from a remote location. After discovering what a scumbag Mr. Hollis is I reconfigered the software and changed passwords. Mr. Hollis is the only person who ever used the previous log in and passwords. Yesterday I received 6 emails notifying me of failed login attempts using the old access! i contacted Mr. Hollis and questioned him about it. He tried to blame his former employee John! What a sorry excuse for a human being.

Curt Hollis is still a scumbag regardless of how he justifies his actions. A reputable company does not get three similar reports like this. He tries to justify his actions with lame excuses. A former employee of his even left because of so many complaints from wronged customers. If you are reading this and are considering a new pos system contact Hampton PC (hamptonpc.net). John is an upstanding person and was a pleasure to deal with.  

As far as the computer being "new" I have the instruction manual used to build the damn thing!
