- PV>My main concern is with the company's reputation,
-
- In two words, it sucks.
-
- The only thing Fast about Fast Micro is the speed with which they will
- charge your credit card. In my own experience, an order placed on Monday
- with a promised ship date of Wednesday had not shipped the following
- Tuesday, and I cancelled the order.
-
- The credit had not yet been posted to my credit card six weeks later!
-
- Fortunately, I had written the credit card company and >they< issued the
- credit.
-
- Since I have had this experience, I have heard similar reports from ten
- or so other people.
-
- My advice? Avoid Fast Micro like the plague.
