I FUCKING HATE STAPLES!

[giambona]

I really fucking hate Staples.com! I just tried ordering that scanner for $80 - $60 in rebates and the site won't let me order it b/c it's out of stock! The rebates expire 11/11/00. Almost every single time I have ordered from their site, I have had problems.

[revil]

hmmm, you are mad at them for being out of stock? I don't think that's their fault, it's just bad luck for you.

I have had no problem ordering stuffs from Staples near my area. Perhaps you should try to use different zip code and maybe they will have it.

[giambona]

It's not that they're out of stock. It's the fact that every single time I put an order through, there is a problem with it. For instance, there have been times when I used coupons and, after i put the order through, they wouldn't accept hte coupons... they didn't even give me a phone call!

you mean to tell me that there are some ofus who haven't learned their lesson to avoid Staples unless you're getting something for cents on the dollar...and even then don't be optimistic... Oh well.

i will insert the letter that i sent via e-mail to staple here regarding the news that was posted by apex regarding the removal of links to "staples" website.

i would ask each reader to copy or form their own version and do the same...


as a customer of staples that drives 40 miles to the nearest store for your products, I AM ABSOLUTELY LIVID AT WHAT I JUST READ. it seems that someone in their infinite wisdom has ordered
the "GOTAPEX.COM" SITE (and others i presume of the "deal" variety), to stop linking to them.

"STOP ADVERTISING YOUR PRODUCTS???"

first off...YOU DONT DEMAND A DAMN THING!!!

this is the peoples internet and if we want to advertise something you offer for resale we damn well can. you put it up on the web for the whole world to see and thats what were doing.

we see your website...we like it...we like the "deals" you offer.
dont point at us because you cant manage your coupons or your product to keep up with demand.

while i only buy products that i can personally
use, i have great disdain for those that use deals to resale and make money...if you feel that the coupons and deals must stop...then stop...but dont even try to control how we view/share the information that you put on the net for all to see.

i will copy this message and place it in every deal site that i visit (currently 25 or so) and request that every subscriber do the same.

we,the consumers of your products,use only the information that you have provided and buy only the products that you offer through legitimate
promotions on these "deal" sites. we have done nothing wrong, and will not be silenced because of inadequate planning on your part.

I EAGERLY AWAIT A RESPONSE VIA VOICE OR E-MAIL
IN REGARDS TO STAPLES CURRENT AND FUTURE POSITION ON THESE MATTERS.

SINCERELY,

[Aristo]

Well, yeah this sucks.

[giambona]

I'm sending the letter right now...

[giambona]

What's the e-mail address you sent this to?
