Peachtree Woodworking = Cheaptree

I buy a lot of stuff from Peachtree. Maybe not so much anymore.50% Freud router bit sale. Pretty nice discount so I order two of the same =small bit.Get an email today... pharaphrase "we were overwhelmed with the response. W=e sold out. We can't buy anymore at the cheap price so no backorders and yo=u loose out. Sorry sucker."The offer did not say "clearance" or "while supplies last", at least I don'=t think so and they didn't say anything like that in their pitiful "apology=".They are cleary big enough to cover the "loss". In fact if the email said "=you'll have to wait but we will honor the price even though we are losing o=ut" I would have thought much of their integrity. However, now not so much.= I sent them a reply indicating my "displeasure" and I will not be so eager= to ever buy from them again, although if it suits me I shall.

So does that make you a lying bastard for not having the kits on your website available that were, and still are, advertised to be available in late 2011 or is that an invalid analogy?

First of all thanks for visiting my website.

I think it is a bit of a stretch on the analogy. If I were taking orders on that promise and then not delivering I would say it was the very much the same, so I am nearly a lying bastard. I guess it takes one to know one.

I'll have to relearn my web content management system and change those pages.

Would you like a notification when these kits do become available?

In your mind, not mine. How could you be so familiar with my marginal utility for some rotary tools and batteries?

I agree that "audacity" is very close to the right word. I'm sorry if you don't like that I shared my experience. Who knows, maybe some of our words will get back to Robert Bosch?

Cheers, Bill
