-
- I bought several Amiga A500s and A600s from those guys in 1994.
-
- Some arrived DOA which meant I had to ship them back for their
- "warranty" repairs. These took much too long, and when the
- machine was finally sent back to me, it was missing a power supply.
- Took many phone calls and another 30 days before they finally made
- good on their deals. I was dealing with a guy named Eric who I
- could NOT get to return my calls.
-
- One of Copperhead's owners, Bill Tucker, called me summer '95
- asking for my business again. He admitted problems in the past,
- even went on to admit that there are still problems.
-
- I took a pass.
-
- Caveat Empor my fellow Amigan.
