Today seems to be the day that we are =
flaming
vendors. I did too. I am also a vendor (albeit a very small =
one) on
the list, and I do attempt to offer the kind of service that I would =
want to
receive personally. I think I can speak for many of the list =
vendors,
though, by saying that mistakes can and do happen. They are =
sometimes our
fault, sometimes the fault of the customer, and sometimes someone in the =
middle. The difference, though, between a good vendor and a really =
bad one
many times comes down to how that person solves the problem, either real =
or
perceived. I have not been challenged on this list, nor do I =
expect
to. There are some really great vendors involved with this =
group. So
far, to my knowledge, I have treated each of the list members with the =
courtesy
they deserve, whether the communication ended with an order or =
not. List
members, if we as vendors screw up, tell us and we will try to rectify =
the
problem. If we can't or don't handle the complaint in a timely =
manner,
tell the list. No one should endure bad service. =
