For what it's worth, I have ordered 3 times from MacMall and once from
MacWarehouse.  MacWarehouse sent me the wrong stuff, even after I gave them the
apple part number.  However, there was no hazzle in getting my credit card 
credited.

MacMall has (so far) been very promtp and knowledgeable.  They deliver to
my work, where all the Fedex stuff gets shipped to a loading center and then
distributed (I get the packages around noon).  Granted, I have not ordered
anything over $50.00, but a friend of mine ordered a Performa 6205 form
MacMall and then changed his mind before receiving it.  He got his money
back.

I wish some of those who posted to this thread would have said who do they buy
from, since sometimes you can only get certain things from the mail order firms.

I saw some references to MacZone, but there is so much PC stuff in their
Mac catalog that it makes me want to puke. I have never bought from them.

And as long as I ranting along, I like Computer City a lot better than CompUSA.
Computer city has a real Mac section, I only wish there was one close to
where I live.


Going back to sleep now...
