Franknputer Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Arrgghh!!! :mad: Damn fools...I have been waiting for a (light) copy of a certain audio program. I bought it about 10 days ago, and it was to be shipped by Priority Mail. I got it in the middle of the night, and the next morning I thought I'd rather rush it, so I emailed their sales dept. in the morning & asked if I could bump up the shipping. They're West Coast, I'm East Coast, so they should have all day to check this out. The NEXT day, I finally get a message back: "sure, no problem...", except there was a problem - turned out they had shipped it THE DAY BEFORE. (At our company, I usually ask the guy who does the shipping before I make promises to customers...) Next message: "Oops, sorry - it's coming, you should get it Monday...". Hmm..OK, well, that'll do...my bad, should have done it in the first place. In the meantime I can d/l a "fully functioning demo" (considering how well it has functioned so far, I hope it's crippleware...) and use it till the software arrives. Monday,Tuesday...nothing. Christmas - busy time for the USPS, maybe it'll come after? Thursday, Friday...nuttin'. (grumble, grumble) Sent an email telling them that I STILL hadn't gotten it, is there any way to track? No response. Moday comes again...nothing in the mail. :mad: Email them AGAIN, asking about the package. Twice, since by the end of the day I STILL GOT NO ANSWER. Finally...I check tonight, and there's a message from the (apparently 1-person) sales dept: "No, can't track it - by the way, we didn't include THE SUITE NUMBER in the address - do you think that would be a problem?" [i]AARRGGHH!! Stupid Mother^$#(@#!!! Would I have PUT IT THERE iF IT DIDN"T F@$#ING MATTER?!?[/i] I upgraded this dumb program mainly to have an OSX-capable audio app...AND to test & see if I wanted to buy the full version. How do you think I feel about doing that now???
Sexy Bastard Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Well? Which program was it? Save the rest of us from making the same mistake.

Dan South Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Darn, I thought that this was going to be a Microsoft bashing thread. What a let down!! :D The Black Knight always triumphs!
Franknputer Posted December 31, 2002 Author Posted December 31, 2002 Some of youse guys are pretty smart...now get outta here, before I Deck ya... :freak: Dan, I already cursed M$ today. But there's always tomorrow... :D
Brakka Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 I think if you put "Deck" in the thread subject, the owner of Bias will see this thread and talk to you directly and be your friend. Wewus mentioned something about that.
offramp Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Kemp: I recently switched to DP. I liked Deck, but it seems to be a dead-end road. I really hate to say that--I tend to root for the underdogs--but survival of the fittest. Bias-Inc folk, if you're reading this: I'm another lost sale. I've upped my standards; now, up yours.

Franknputer Posted December 31, 2002 Author Posted December 31, 2002 offramp - I may have to agree with you there. I have had hopes for it, but I dunno - and if this is how they normally handle things, well, they're screwed. DP would be my choice - but I have run into a dead end trying to upgrade the copy of 2.7 that I have, (licensing issue - got it second-hand; the dude said he would call & transfer the license to me, but he didn't - and doesn't respond to my emails... :( ) and don't know when I'll be able to pay full price for it. It may be more advantageous to try to cross-grade to something else. Geez...
Chaz Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Well, I was going to say something, but it had nothing to do with the thread, as I read it incorrectly. :rolleyes: Haven Music Productions Tampa, FL www DOT havenmp DOT com
