Well, let's see...about 9 months ago I *tried* to order a 2.1 gig
ultra-scsi Quantum drive from Aberdeen.  Since I had no credit card at
the time, I planned to pay COD with a money order.  They said that I
had to fax them a copy of the money order before sending it.  I had
never seen this happen before, but I went along and faxed them the
copy.  Nothing happened.  I waited and waited, emailed them many times
and tried to find out what happened to the order, but to no avail.  I
ended up cancelling my order and getting a refund on the money order,
wasting a good 2 1/2 weeks trying to get this hard drive.  They were
very unaccomodating, and I have avoided them ever since.  How about
that?
