Retail follies part 1 of many

I see that Future Shop still thinks they can compete in appliance sales by making customers wait for a delivery from out of town.

That's even worse than my recent experience with Home Depot, where they took my order, made me wait 2 weeks for the stove and pay $50.00 for the delivery. Mabe, Home Depot's supplier, then called 3 or 4 days later to tell me they were out of stock and it would be at least 3 weeks. Order cancelled.

Meanwhile I had an unhappy tenant with no stove, so back I went crawling to my usual wholesaler.
