Re: [emax] WARNING: scsiforsamplers.com

2009-08-19 by mr julian

I was originally thinking it might be that.

I was still *very* up in the air about sending payment when I agreed to 
buy the drives. I wanted to see what the arrangement would be. probably 
should have made that acceptance email a bit less provocative with the 
word scammer, if I was wanting to draw out a scammer....

but see... that last reply really threw me. A scammer would take 
whatever they could get.

something is very very weird, and very very wrong.

not just from a general customer service point of view, but especially 
weird compared to my last transaction with them the other month....
