Boy how many times to have to rehash this? In my opinion and experience Bus Depot is great. I order from multiple vendors so I appreciate them all - however I will agree that BD often has the lower price. I also think that deciding not to order from a specific vendor hurts you more than it does the vendor. We don't really have a lot of resources out there so why cut yourself off from a solid one? Everyone has different expectations and experiences I guess. Personally I've never found BD to have poor customer service either. I've spoken with many of the folks there by phone and always felt I was taken care of. While I can understand frustration I also agree that venting here in such a way causes nothing but problems and long back and forth threads. While I think it's appropriate to come to the list with such issues I also feel it should be an absolute last option. Sorry you had (or feel you had) a bad experience and I hope it works out the best for everyone involved.
