This vividly illustrates the need to go about ordering things so that
you protect yourself:

1.	WRITE!  Reiterate any promises made on the phone and make them a
	condition of the sale.  Mention the person's name that makes these
	promises to you.
2.	Make copies of any and all documents that pass between you and the
	company.
3.	Pay by credit card or check.  Credit card companies will help you
	out if you have been ripped off.
4.	If you have problems, call or write PROMPTLY.  If that doesn't
	get good results, contact your local post office.  They can help
	enormously.  If it really is mail fraud, they will go to great
	lengths to prosecute them.
