joy, i didnt write the email with the above subject line that shawn replied
to.

nonetheless, its not about "newbies" as you seem to be implying.  its simply
about people airing their grievances over unsatisfied PRIVATE business
transactions on this PUBLIC list. take it up with the vendor on your own time!    i
could care less if Vanadepot took 5 days instead of 4 to ship an item.  why do
we all need to know about it?
ya know.. last nite i was getting gas in the vanagon and that dude behind the
counter at the quickie mart didnt give me the correct change, took too long
to turn on the pump, and their was no toilet paper in the bathroom there..
Boycott the quickie mart!!! Quickie mart sucks!!

do y'all care?

hell no.

i dont either  .
