I ordered the Chameleon CRT emulator from the Antic Catalog on September
6th. Here it is October 17 and I still don't have my software. That was 6
weeks ago (The catalog says wait 3 to 4 weeks for delivery). I even used my
credit card "for faster service." I figured that there must be something
wrong so I called the 800 number that I called when I ordered. They said
that they only take the orders and I would have to call Antic in California
for an answer. So...I called at 11:00a.m. (thats 8:00a.m. there), I was
pleasantly greeted by someone that informed me that Customer Service was
not opened yet but they would take a message and have someone call me back.
I waited, and waited, no call. I called them back at 7p.m (4p.m. there).
Customer Service informed me that they were backlogged and my order will be
sent out "soon." "Soon" I asked. That's the best answer I could get.
This is the first time I have ever ordered from the Antic Catalog (and
maybe the last).
Is this the norm for Antic? Has anyone else had to wait, and wait, and
wait?
