I'll 2nd your complaint.  Lat year while up in Toronto for the Candian Comdex, 
I was suckered in by their price for memory chips.   Of course when I called 
they were out, but they would gladly send them to me in the US.   Well they 
did, except they sent 8 meg simms instead of the 16's I ordered.  Sent them 
back and received the 16's.   Only problem was that they didn't work.  My 
system refused to recognize them. Called tech support and was told well they 
work on Pentiums and that's what we test them on.

Sent them back and wrote a letter challenging the charge to my credit card 
company.

3 months latter Ultinet still hadn't credited my account.  Called again and 
was told by the salesman.   Oh, I just found the paperwork on my desk.  I'll 
send it thru.

Some way to run a company!
