I made an order from Dr. Mac about 1 month ago, and called back a week 
latr to cancel. They said it was on backorder, so no problem.  Last week 
I received it (!) and it was charged to my credit card.  (This is a $900 
item, no small thing).  So I called them and they said they'd get UPS to 
pick it up etc, which they did.  But still, they never had any record of 
my cancelling the order.
 
MacConnection is still my favorite Mailorder place...although they don't 
usually have the best prices, sometimes they do (they seem to have one of 
the lowest on the TelePort modem...).
