	I just stop doing business with companies that give me the run
around.  What have I got to lose, my business?  Well, if I lose it because
of unexcused delays, incorrect (notice I did not say lies) statements about
deliveries, etc., then I have lost it anyway, but they should lose too.  I
am now down to very few suppliers/distributors/dealers I work with and as
time goes along, I expect it to be even smaller.  I just wish more people
were this way, then maybe the companies would realize that the customer is
the most important part of business...which is how I run mine!  I may not be
around, while the dishonest, have hearted, gready, profit only minded souls
will be laughing to the bank, but I know they will eventually run out of
suckers (But here we fall into Barnum's statement that "a new sucker is born
everyday.").
	So I just recommend you stop dealing with them.  And if anyone asks
your opinion about the company, just state the facts without much emotion. 
Leaving them to decide if yours was just a unique circumstance.

IMHO
