- I have dealt with Tri-State quite a bit. Since I live in NYC, it's only a
- train ride away and they do know what they are doing wrt the Amiga. They
- sell other platforms but they have 1 salesman (that i know of) that is
- their "Amiga salesman".
- I purchased my A1200, Canon BJ-200, DataflyerXDS and a 1.2 Gig HDD from
- them over several transactions and I have never had a problem with
- anything. Not to mention that they usually can beat most prices.
-
- Copperhead on the other hand is a piece of s*!t! I will never attemt to
- deal with them again. They never return phone calls and I got a monitor
- DOA from them. After sending it back for Warantee repair, I am still
- waiting for my refund (They finally decided that I could get one). Mind
- you, I originally ordered the monitor back in mid-October!
