So far that's two companies that have been ripped off by rogue developers then. Keep the reasons coming, and if theres any concerns that you guys have about doing business with web developers, please voice them here.
Perhaps at the end of this, we will be able to put together a guide or check list for finding a reputable web development company - a kind of what to look out for list.
Toni: Your website is indeed pleasing to the eye, and works quite well. I think you've found a nice balance there between professional and inhouse.
