This may be true of most mail-order places, but I feel it is very unfair to
Calumet Camera in Illinois.  Not only have I called them many times on their
1-800 toll free line for just information, they have not pressed for an order
immediately beyond "Do you wish to order that item?"  Not only that, but they
always carry the US Warranty.
