and making fun of paying customers is 
right?
this thread is in poor taste.
FTR no one mentioned any names you just decided to come out and help the post along and call your own self out.
but lets leave the rest to email, it is not my intention to slander or make any vendor look bad.
Sorry i posted in this thread to begin with.

OK, here is one.
Customer has a problem with his/her order. Instead of e-mailing the vendor, they post a thread on an internet forum, bashing the vendor.

The main thread that you all are referring to is about a person who had already been in contact multiple times.

some of you are mis-interpreting the original tone of this thread. a lot of the venders/sponsors on here are good suppliers and are quite fair. one mix up and they are bashed regardless of their enormous positive track record.

As we saw for the last Vendor X is bad thread, there was more positive comments in the thread then negitive.
I personally had no customers to bash, but I did see an oportunity to have everyone share their customer stories in a humorus way. We have had them as vendors, and been them as customers.

my buddy bought an escort 8500 from best buy back when they were new-got it right before a long road trip. he bought a refurb from ebay at the same time for $20 less, then when it came in a week or two later, he repackaged it into the circuit city package and returned it for a full price refund.
he wanted it a week earlier, and he didnt want to deal with the risk of a refurb. best buy probably lost $50 to save him $20.

it's a service industry.....isn't all of this a part of doing business?
if customers are such a pain in the ass, why stay in business?
again it's business, nothing personal. if a buyer can find it else where for less why not buy it for less?
many times i've gone into pep boys for odds and ends only to find their prices are higher than their competitors...so i ask them to beat the price...they always do.
it's a part of doing business...
and in this economic climate, it's sink or swim.
i have no loyalties.
