judge only when you have facts
With a disgrace i read comments here, Peter i now for 24 years, a business has good and bad times, A big problem in mine opion Pete couldnt say no, and people took advantage of that. going the extra mile, if write says he was their for a decade, it means something was well done. the palms lost very large anker tenants, most tenants left , shy high rentals. HE DID NOT closed his doors lightly, he lost everything he had, till the last day he tried to assist his clients. He did NOT deliberity took deposits from clients , with the idea of closing and disapearing. Very large furniture makers on national level did go down, pete a 1 man show, worked from early to late , often deep in the night. all to make his product special. sadly circumstances high rent, staff issues ( what i will not even mention the reality of it) abuse by a few clients. Peter is a very loyal person who lived for his business ....and his clients. i am sure when pete is ready and stands up again he settles his accounts..... i think its rather a disgrace and shame to assume and accuse him in this platform. its very easy to judge and not knowing the hartsore and facts. Shame on you.. and to accuse of "defraud" that is a very large accusation. If he knew he would close and took then money , i agree, BUT THIS ISNT THE CASE. Also post on Facebook Andre Jacobs

Peter Osborne At Home - Extracts deposits from cusomers and disappears
This should be minus 5 starts! Peter Osborne At Home has been at the Palms Centre, Woodstock, Cape Town for over a decade. He designed and made furniture in a country style, which has featured in many magazines. In October he moved from those premises to his factory in Woodstock next to Salt River Bridge and seemed to be planning to operate from there. In November 2017, I consulted Peter to design some furniture for me. In December 2017, I paid a substantial deposit to him to start the manufacture of free standing kitchen units for my renovated house. By 10 December, I tried to contact him to hear whether he was likely to at least have the framework for a sink for the Christmas holidays. His secretary took messages but there was no reply. In early Jan, I tried again, but saw his website was "suspended". No replies from any of his numbers. I took a letter of demand to his factory. It was locked up and the business next door reported that he had cleared out the factory between Christmas and New Year. There is no trace of him on the internet, Facebook, etc. I have found one other letter linked to Facebook from someone who emigrated and from whom he stole R64 000 by promising to deliver their newly manufactured furniture to their container. So Peter Osborne At Home has defrauded two of us, and maybe more. Has anyone else had any experience of him in the last 3 months?
