FAX to 408-972-8155. ola y'all, I have a found out a few things about Hello Direct that any non-Americans might want to know: 1) the 800 number is an international 800. I called from Canada. 2) Hello Direct will not ship out of the USA, nor will they put you on their mailing list, but at least they will send out their catalogue. tha's all fer now, ================= tim (nelson) | uucp ...!uunet!attcan!ncrcan!tim ncr canada | internet tim@ncrcan.Toronto.NCR.COM (416) 826-9000 | 6865 Century Ave, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L5N 2E2 ================= * Have a good day, and a great forever. [Moderator's Note: I was amazed to receive this note. I can't imagine why they would refuse to sell/ship to international addresses, provided of course the purchaser paid for any extra shipping charges; made his check payable in United States dollars; allowed time for clearing and shipping, etc. If what you say is true, that eliminates about twenty percent of our readership here as potential customers. I'd suggest asking Sue Britto, their Direct Marketing Coordinator for a response on this. Maybe the order-taker was in error. Or perhaps someone else from that organization will reply. Sue's number is 408-972-1990. PT]
