A Main Hobbies have set the standard in the on-line mail order business. Over 700,000 orders placed.

All I can gather from this thread is Todd=Idiot

None of that is going to keep me from buying stuff from them but it is frustrating. Especially when I have spent over a grand there in the last month.

Wow - don't you guys think you're being a bit harsh? The OP was asking if anyone else has had what he considers a poor experience with an online vendor, and you're treating him like he ran over your favorite kitten.

Let's give the guy a break and everyone take a deep breath - I didn't hear him insult any of you; I'm not sure there's reason to insult him...

Todd surely you knew when you started this thread you were going to take some flaming. I know your frustrated but seems to me like the rush order option is something you needed to do. Now that they offer that regular orders are getting bumped down by the rush orders. I often order on Mondays or Sunday nights but I pick a shipping method that will ensure delivery in time after factoring in at least one full day of processing time if not 2. I am frequently shocked by how quickly my items actually are delivered sometimes within 72 hours of placing the order and Im on the east coast.

Thanks Jason. I dont feel it should be neccesary to pay an additional $3.00 for a rush process option. Just my opinion. And no, I really did not think I would get trashed by people about this topic. Its ok. I promise I wont lose any sleep over this. lol! Im way more worried about the Magic losing to the Hawks tonight and being out of the playoffs.
