   S & S Wholesalers Inc Strike Again.

I have had three encounters with S & S Wholesalers: two successful and
my one unsuccessful.  I successfully purchased my color system
and software from them.  However, 2 weeks ago I ordered a hard disk.
After it did not arrive, I called.  They told me the only drive they had
in stock was defective.  They must have know this for 2 weeks.  Apparently,
they did not care enough to tell me.  I told the manager that S & S has
a reputation for bad service on the Atari net.  

The good part is, hard drive prices have drop about $30 in 2 weeks.  I
ordered a drive from CMO.  He said he would send it by air and it would
arrive on Wednesday ( I ordered on late Friday).

BTW, I believe a buyer can negoiate a better price if he pays COD with a
Cashier's Check.  That is because seller's must pay a credit card surcharge
that is past on to the buyer.
