Hi Dale,

   Yes, I certainly understand your frustration with the seemingly "I don't
give a d___ attitude toward customers".  While I have had somewhat more
pleasant exchange with my sales rep, I have sent him another message
reminding him that the projected ship date was August.  In the meantime, I
have located  4 other sources that advertise the same terminal by Metri-Pack
part number.  There are a number of others that would appear to work, but I
am only looking into those sources that have the terminal by Metri-Pack part
number..

  If the response I get back from WAYTEK is not satisfactory, I intend to
contact these other sources and see what I price I can obtain.  The prices
vary from $6.10 for a pack of 10 (hands up - this is a robbery) to 0.14 per
terminal, min order of $25 which would give me 178 terminals - somewhat more
than what I need {:>)   I'll let you know what I find out.

   Right now, I just don't know what to think about Waytek's
service.  Mostly, I'm not a very happy camper. About a week
ago, I sent an email inquiring about the status of my
backordered pins.  No response until I got the following, which includes
my responses.

Hi Michelle,

   The value of those parts is that the #38207 connectors ($8.83),
and the #38208 seals ($5.11), that I already paid for, are useless
without the pins that were backordered.

   UPS ground?  For what it's worth, you could put them in a
padded envelope and send them U.S. Mail.  I just want the parts
that I paid for 2-1/2 months ago.

automatically in our system.

   Umm, you've already charged my credit card for those parts.

Sincerely,
Dale Rogers
