Re: Don't buy into pre-orders for Apple II products
@Apple2Steward: I understand this, and I will post the answers when I get home tomorrow and confirm everything. Regardless of all that though, this experience has been too stressful on myself and my family, with threats of legal action and such things. Even if my answers placated everyone for now, what happens if something else goes wrong? It seems that Murphey's Law is quite accurate, since I have done similar transactions flawlessly and on schedule many times for myself or for an employer, but when my ass is the one on the line, everything falls apart.
What happens if I take possession of the cards and find out there is a manufacturing error, or the box has been mishandled and they are mostly/all destroyed, or I have been scammed and shipped a box of bricks? How would people feel then? Do you think that they would be understanding, or out for blood? Hell, how would I feel? I would probably die of a heart attack on the spot! No, regardless of the climate here after tomorrow, I would rather part with treasured possessions to make sure that everyone is happy, and they can choose to re-order when they are ready to ship out, if they so choose.
I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time, and I hope that you will not think less of this project when it finally does ship out. Thank you though everyone for taking the time to stand by me through it. You've all shown more patience than you would be expected to, and I appreciate that.
