Anthony Apples Vending is Dave McDonald's puppet. His last and only friend that trolls the internet for people speaking the truth about their unfortunate experience with a career scam artist. Anothony lends him money and counts on him to move and repair equipment. They might as well be the same guy. Anthony is the guy that will be sending money orders when his is incarcerated. Just keep searching Craigslist under for sale "779-435-0235 vending" and feel free to spam his listings. Also feel free to flag Anthony he is posting ads for Dave search Craigslist under "for sale 708-837-6574" and you will see most of the same equipment.
They have no legit business and pay no sales tax to my knowledge. You have to click spam on the Craigslist listing many times for it to be removed. If will all do it a few times we can manage the situation. They both do this to other vendors to try to eliminate competition. They do not play fair and hopefully enough complaints to craigslist, Illinois department of revenue, States Attorney or the network television news groups. I know his mother is in on this and possibly the rest of his family. I beleive they could all be brought to justice with the proper investigative reporting.

Anthony , Totally UN-Believable unbelievable you just happen to post anything here that Dave didnt tell you too.
unbelievable you claim you purchased anything with out the failed deliverys and mother calling to make more excuses and added legal fees .
seeing as you are the only one ,maybe you can help him out with the landlord and stop the eviction too.

Anthony,
I find your posting hard to believe. Please email me at [email protected] so I can get your phone number and talk about your business with Dave.
An honest and upstanding guy, writing a post talking about me being a child in a mans body. I would love to share with you the invoice unpaid and Dave's phone messages that he left for me. You might change your mind.
If you are real email me.

Dont listen to this BS about mcdonald vending, none of it is true. they are trying to pull a fast one to try and get Dave's business that's all..Dave and I (Anthony Apple**) have done very good business, I just paid him up front again for an account as I did before. Dave is a good man with a great company, he has always shipped or delivered items for me ASAP! I can say he is one busy man, but Dave don't let these fools get you down.

I don't care if it is Anthony Apple, Barbara Banana, Charlie Cherry, Davey Dill, Englebert Eggplant, Frank Fig, Georgianne Garlic, Hanna Huckleberry and so on..... there is not one sane person that has dealt with Dave McDonald that would write " he is a good man"

Mr. Ben Gorman:
All I can say is you are a liar and will be named in a suit of 5 . I dont care how much money
your family has you did 2 chargebacks on me and I have lost a great deal of time dealing with
you,
As for the AG's office they are great people and if they have issue with me I am sure they will
make contact with me.
As for you , you are a child in a mans body who will find out that you cant do what you have done,
I will make no further comment as I know the truth, You write whatever you want.

I have figured that my issue was long in the past, and that I would never get the money he owes me back. I did file with the Attorney General's office, and am amazed at reading this Ripoff string that some people were helped and still others are getting scammed by this guy. I am also amazed how he is out of prison.... I guess he is a lucky guy.
Dave actually wrote on this Ripoff Report, amazing he talks about the people he made whole, or credited. Dave buddy.... liar you still owe me money. How about sending me a bank check or money order.
Remember Ben from Gorman Distributors? You still owe me $1499. I re-engaged with the Attorney General's office this week.

Dave, Put two and two together. I'm sure you owe more than just me, so this could be tough to figure out. But you still owe me and you know it. Constant promises and lies. This guy is no good. Stay away. If and when I get taken care of, I will update this thread. Be sure to know if I don't update with positive words, Dave still hasn't taken care of business. Thanks

I have purchased 2 machines from Dave a AP 6600 and a Rowe 5900 JR. Both machines were in great condition, I also purchased a route from Dave the route does exactly what he said it would do! Dave is a very honest man and has a legit company. Dave idk what these people are after you..Dave McDonald Vending had helped me out as I am 20 years old and started my own company! Thanks Dave love to continue to do business with you. Anthony Apple

please take time to look at what circuit court judges say about rip off report as well as the trash that writes rip off reports in the first place, it is amazing to me that people cant focus on their own
misfortunes or positives in their life but instead owe my GOD feel sorry for me. Patrick McGinty is
an absolute child with time on his hands. His issue has been resolved for months and he still tries in every way he can to cause heartache for me. I am in the middle of depositions with current and past customers that this individual has lied and created crap about me and my company. This boy
should be spanked and sent to his room.
Sue in Rockford is the most classless person I have ever met, she only communicates through customers and wont take my calls she has my number blocked, she sent my refund back to me and i had to send refund to her banker to get refund back to her, she is a miserable person who is in a relationship that she is so bothered by that she has to take her issues out on me.
regarding Patrick McGinty and The lovely SUe in rockford they are owed nothing, NOTHING but yet
find time as a hobby to try and screw with me.
Kansas business may have filed a problem but she is very content with the resolution to her problem but Patrick writes crap about their situation and mike that is sue the daves squeeze
has called ks trying to get them on the smear campaign and they would have no part of it.
Jason Anderson Oakbrook/Aurora has his issue being resolved to his positive and he will soon
write to tell you how happy he now is!!
Woodstock newest person in mix has no issue that required rip off report but whatever and once
again jeff why did you not sign your name . balls enough to trash but no balls to say who you are.
PA guy lets sue the dave and ba ba Patrick do his dirty work.
This is a tough business here and people have jumped on me and none of this was needed,
I promise that i believe in my heart that Patrick in Ohio will end up with a landmark judgement
placed against him and daddys business for his unbelievabe crap that he has written and done to
me. PATRICK has threatened me, my daughters, my landlords, my ex wife and he is such a
horrible person he has even attacked an 85 year old mother who answers my phone in my
office that sue the dave has been in one time. I wonder often is SUe is a man or a woman, She
belongs to a gun club according to her i have no idea other than that is classy,.
bottom line if you have any form of issue with me please pick up a phone it will be a very professional conversation and lets see if we can get it resolved, thank you and sorry for
this unfortunate crap that is occuring!! this is all very misleading from the facts

Went to Dave McDonald's "shop" and was given a "complete Broadway show" now that I have 20/20 hindsight. Hook line and sinker I fell for a great deal. Deal becomes even better, the more machines you buy. Then if you pay full amount another $400.00 was taken off. Promises to have them ready, free delivery and coffee machine still loaded from test runs. Always an excuse, totally delusional and apparently re-selling non-existant vending machines over and over and over again. Here is some of the routine. Does this sound familiar to you also? : Married to the business, works 7 days a week, nicest guy in the world, mentions daughters thru-out the sale, dials HIS cell phone and lets you speak to his satisfied customer, bashes another vending company saying they have bad reputation (when it really is McDonald Vending), part missing have to order, snow delay, nicest guy in the world, over committed to customers can't make it, vending machines ready and looking good just need an appt to deliver, nicest guy in the world. We had 4 canceled deliveries and too many numerous excuses to list here. Never contacts you to cancel, just wouldn't show. Nicest guy in the world and doesn't want to stress anyone, just wants to work it out. (Dave, am I getting this all correctly?) oh wait, yes I am! I just have to look at my emails and text messages to have all the wording, verbatim! If he would put as much effort into vending machine business as he does scamming and fleeing and never following thru...he would have a terrific business. I understand he is renting business location monthly so I am pretty sure he will have another address and different phone number soon. I found 3 addresses and 3 phone numbers already on him.(moves/runs constantly) I am not sure why he is allowed to keep scamming and stealing money and not be in jail. If you have had any of these problems and have lost money to McDonald Vending or Value Vending with Dave McDonald, please do not just think you have lost money. Please file with State's Attorney's office and file a police report so we can, as a group, end this vicious circle of scamming!
THAT WAS MY ORIGINAL RIPOFF REPORT (March 2012)...... The State's Attorney's office was a tremendous help, please utilize them. They have received at least 5 reports on Dave McDonald. Keep the reports coming in. Many authorities were contacted and victim names and phone numbers were given. It is a group that has one thing in common....ripped off by Dave McDonald. Maybe some have been refunded, but remain in the fight for the others that have not seen their machines or their money back. Keep fighting for your refund. Stay with filing reports with all authorities you can. And remember when one has been refunded....it is because another has just been ripped off!!
