I am at a loss as to how this man can continue to con people out of thousands of dollars. Needless to say, 4 weeks later, I have yet to hear from Mark Reeder nor see a dime of my money. Anyway, he also went on to say that he has been very busy but promised to wire the money to my account within one week. You would think he would have replaced the person by now. Since March 2007, he has complained about this ficticious accountant. He gave several empty apologies and continued to blame the refund delay on his accountant. My response was yes, (though I'm sure he was fully aware but I played his silly game). This is just an update that I received a phone call "out of the blue" from Mark Reeder about a month ago. We have also filed a complaint against him with the Better Business Bureau. We are in the beginning stages of our lawsuit and pray for restitution. However, I implore you to stay away from him and his company. If you are an agent, promoter, club owner, or anyone looking to book talent and want a surefire way to be scammed and to lose your money, definitely use the services of Mark Reeder of Logantown Entertainment, Inc. We've spoken to two other individuals that have been scammed by him or an affiliate of his. He is a professional thief and con artist. ![]() That could not be further from the truth. ![]() Reeder pegs himself as a professional businessman with integrity. Reeder and the staff at Logantown Entertainment, Inc have become very hostile, evasive, and uncooperative. Monday was a holiday and that wire didn't get called back in until after that so either wait for it to post or take legal action that's all I can tell you because I don't have the time to waste to explain things you already said what you wanted to do and all I and all I'm saying is you should do that if you feel that strong about it. Another time he wrote: I'm not arguing at all this is why I said take legal action if you need to. Still, until this day, no refund materialized.Īfter threatening to sue him (which we did in July 2007) his response was, (and I am copying and pasting directly from an email he sent): If you want to take me to court I'm not stopping you do what you feel is best for you and your company no need to tell me your every move and do what you feel you have to with the better business bureau that doesn't mean anything to me non of that does. In June 2007, he sent us a random email stating What up my dude im going to be taking care of you myself I don't know what's up with my slow a** accountant. Since March 2007 he has been stringing us along with promises that the money will be returned. After hearing this explanation we promptly demanded a refund verbally and in writing. Reeder claimed that the HOB didn't have the artist booked and that they were notorious for promoting concerts before actually having booked the acts. What made matters worse was that the House of Blues was advertising that the same artist was performing, in our same city, on the same date we had booked at their venue. Reeder would not and could not produce the signed booking agreement. We started becoming uneasy when after many requests, Mr. Reeder said everything was confirmed and that he was waiting for the Artist's agent to sign the booking agreement. A deposit which was fully refundable, should things not work out. Because of this guarantee and his experience with other promoters he asked that we wire 50% of the deposit upfront. Reeder came across as knowledgeable and guaranteed us in no uncertain terms that he could acquire the said artist. We were seeking to book a well known R&B Artist for a public concert in February 2007. Being fairly new to concert promotions, we relied on the referral and didn't go into the situation as guarded as we should have been. Mark Reeder and Logantown Entertainment on before ever going into any business transaction with him.
