The Outlaw ruins X-mas

So my little brother wanted an AV receiver for X-mas, and I'm doing well so I figure OK, I'll order one from Outlaw Audio and he'll be set.

Ordered 12/7. then, nothing.

1 wk later 12/13, they phoned me and tell me they cannot have a ship-to address different than a bill-to address. so once that's updated, I expect prompt shipment.

nope.

phone'd them today, and they still haven't shipped. so, there's no way that the unit that I ordered on 12/7 will arrive on time, unless I want to spend $100 on 2-day air.

that's what you call Poor Customer Service. and lets not forget the fact that I'm screwed on getting my brother a gift now.

just thought you should know. i'd personally trust A-gon members w/ good feedback selling used more than that company selling new.

I like Outlaw's factory direct approach and their reasonable prices. All of that is admirable. But, you always have to do the right thing by the customer, period. The goodwill they could have gotten by picking up the shipping tab would have been worth a hundredfold versus the negative vibe they will get from Scrooging/Grinching a customer.

Sorry, but in my book, this is bad business.
