(CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS MESSAGE) On the 15th of September, still with no copier, I cancelled the order and requested an immediate credit on my account. I was told that that would take seven days. After *eleven* days I called the bank and was told that there was no credit to my account. Calling Comp-U-Store once again got me the information that the charge would be credited by *October 6* ! I complained that they had been quick to charge me — one week after the order was placed (long before the copier was supposed to have been shipped) that I thought they should return the favor and credit my account just as quickly. This elicited nothing but dead air. After waiting four months for a badly needed copier purchased in good faith, I wound up with nothing but a $600 debt on my credit card. If you are planning on doing any Christmas shopping with Comp-U-Store, you are already too late. Consider this a warning to think twice before you order anything important or expensive from Comp-U-Store because you are very likely to wind up with nothing but aggrevation and disappointment. I don't make a practice of publishing bad reviews on companies that make errors, but this is so flagrant an example of incompetence and bad faith I consider it my duty to warn everyone about it.
