- Thank you (again) to everyone who responded to my post regarding
- buying PC components through mail order. The information and support
- was greatly appreciated!
-
- A number of you requested to know the name of the company who gave
- me trouble. Their name is Microchip Components (Tustin, CA).
-
- They never mailed me anything. They would repeatedly admit to not mailing
- my order, and assuring that it was mailed "yesterday." Their excuses ranged
- from rediculous to silly.
- They charged me $7.50 for 2 day UPS delivery, but when I requested
- UPS tracking number they addmitted to using 2 Day Air Post (through Post
- Office) which does not provide tracking numbers. By the way, 2 Day Air
- Post costs $2.50.
- Finally, my charge account was charged promptly on the day I placed my
- order, even though nothing was mailed. And, as I suspected, I am having
- trouble getting them to post the credit.
- I am persueing the matter with Attorney General's office and my credit
- card company.
- Julie
