Were your experience(s) generally favorable? How did you handle the exchange of $$$ and merchandise? For example, I'd be wary of shipping off a computer with no check in hand, yet similarly, I'd be wary of sending out several hundred dollars without even seeing the system. What's worked for you? How were problems resolved - (gee, that hard drive worked fine when I sent it...)? Please E-mail replies, I'll summarize. Seems like it would be a useful addition to the monthly postings...
