I was assured that I would have it in 2 ***DAYS***. I have spent around $25.00 in long distance telephone calls over the past 2 months trying to find out where my Starboard was. The Moral of the above two stories is: Abel always seems to have the best prices around. Abel always seems to have a hard time delivering what they ***SAY*** they can ***DELIVER***. If you are thinking about ordering something from Abel, I would consider looking elsewhere as you may never see the product!!! /*****************************************************************************/ * "...You can't always get what you want...", Rolling Stones */ /*****************************************************************************/ I'm David, not Archie - haven't got my own login yet ...
