Being untrusting I also had the credit card company stop payment on that charge under Mail Order Laws (I hope they did that, but I'm still fighting with them about it for reasons I won't go into). Anyway My April charge card bill arrived and still no sign of the charge credit. I called Micro 1 today and asked for the scoop, and they informed be that they are now under Chapter 11 bankrupcy protection and that I'd be receiving a letter. They did say that they are under new management and expect to make good on all orders and money owed, but didn't say when...not to say that I believe them. But when I called sales they still seemed to be taking orders. So, I'd recommend NOT ORDERING from MICRO 1 until they've come out of bankrupcy. I'm surprised that they can still take orders while under court protection (if in fact they were...that's just my feeling), but I know I wouldn't order from them. Just a friendly caution.
