[ caveat insectum ]

I wish to thank those of you on the net who responded to my flame about
_Lolir_Electronics_ and their mail order policy. To refresh your core, :-)
I placed an order with Lolir. After 30 days, I received only a bill from
VISA for $117.45, no merchandise, no notification that shipment would be
delayed, etc. I posted a flame to the net. 

I received ~30 responses. The majority of them from the legal experts on 
the net telling me that I had rights. 3 of the responses were from people 
who offered to check the place out (see if they were still in business), 
Lolir didn't answer their telephone. One who's company does business with 
Lolir had their purchasing agent call Lolir.

The bottom line is that I received a credit from Lolir in the amount that 
I was billed, 2 months later. VISA sent me a form to fill out and removed
that charge from my statement. I am satisfied with the remedy. I still do
mail order transactions with other companies, but I won't do any business
with Lolir again. Once burnt twice shy!....

Thanks again for your interest.
