Howdy folks,
Well, I just got finished canceling an order and giving these diaperloads a piece of my mind. I've been trying to get a new Arizona gem and mineral guide before I go to Jamie's Arizona trip this fall. Checked Amazon first part of March and they said they had it in stock so I ordered it. They said I'd have it in four weeks or so which was awhile but I had plenty of time. Well, fast forward four weeks and I get a note saying delivery is delayed till first week in June. Well, OK still have plenty of time. Now, this morning I get a note saying they want me to OK delivery in mid August. Well, it's plain to me these lying sacks of crap don't even have the book and have no friggin clue how to get it and are just stringing me along until "maybe someday' they find the book. Well, I sent them a note canceling the order and cussin them out for not telling me the truth and exhibiting a total lack of sales ethics then ordered the book from Bernie's Lapidary who I hope will do better. As for Amazon, they've lost my business and I give them a rating of four green weenies for their dishonest and very lame service. End of rant. No wait, not quite *%$&^*&#@$ Amazon.com! .... .Mel

I think you may not get it because it looks to me like he spelled it wrong. I think there needs to have a ! between the #@. Does that help ;D .....MrP

I'M not familiar with Amazon.com but aren't they a bit like ebay? in that they it's Mr. general public who supplies you with the wanted items?
I remember looking for a certain PS2 game and they had it out 2 months after everyone else...

Thanks Liz! I know some women of that kind (not personally, thanks God) and I was always wandering what do they have there. Now I know ! |

While some things are offered by general public, others are from listed from stores, it's up to you to pick the best deal you want. Sorry you had bad business Mel, I've dealt with them quite a few times and never had a problem. |

I think with the money Amazon makes they should by out of print books from venders instead of linking to them
