Default Beware of danny gray seat rip off

i bought a danny gray seat for my rocker back in november the seat had design issues and was reworked in january i was told that they would replace the seat when this happened but now they say they want because it was a custom seat and we wonder why all the companies in the USA are failing

Default rip off

the front of the seat will not stay down the new design has rubber stoppers where you mount on side and on back of seat plus a new design on the piece up front that holds the seat down

I purchased my Danny Gray seat in August 2008 and have not had any problems with it. It fits solidly to the bike and it has not come loose with well over 1,000 miles on it. Pictures of the seats mounting brackets would help.
