To all the user in net land, I'd like to share a recent experience I had
while ordering some new stuff for my PC.
One concerns the Mail Order Firm, 'Conroy LaPointe'.
    They do a large volume of business with large, impressive ads in all the
	monthlies, so I decided to give them a try. I was told over the phone that
	the parts I ordered (A new power supply and such) was in stock, ad that
	they would be shipped the next day via 'Two Day Federal'.
	A week later, when the stuff had not arrived, I called the firm, and 
	discovered that the order had not been shipped -- they had not even
	begun the check on my credit card yet! I was then assured that they
	would do it immediately, and ship it out ASAP. Lo and behold, a week later,
	and my stuff has still not arrived. Another phone call, and about fifteen 
	minutes 'on hold', and I found that the order was still in the shop.
	So, on the basis of this one isolated instance, my advice is to stay away.
	Has anyone else have any any other dealings with them ?
I have experience with a number of mail order/discount places, and they tend
	to offer varied qualities of services. On a good note, I'd like to 
	recommend a firm called 'PC's LIMITED'. They are strictly no frills,
	competitive prices, and no charges for shipping or credit cards.

I have seen similar discussions for other similar suppliers (eg Tennis 
	Equiptment and Camera stuff). How about some feedback?
	Who's good ... who's not kind of stuff.
