Hello everyone.

2 month ago, the CompUSA store at Broadway NYC, stole $407 from me.

In April 2nd, while I was touring New York City, I entered the store and
bought a brand new Westren Digital 20.4GB hard drive, at the second
floor.

When I came back to my home country, I found out that the hard drive in
the box, was an old 270MB Quantum!!! My face turned red when I realized
what has been done to me.

Well, it, of course ruined my lovely 3 weeks vacation.I can do nothing
about it. I am here, and the store is on the other side of the world.
The only thing I can do, is to warn you not to buy there anything.
Please don't repeat the same mistake I did.
