   Stay away from ART MULTIMEDIA computer store in San
   Jose, California.

   I had my worst shopping experience with these people
   over buying a monitor. They advertise a lower price but
   take my word for it: It is not worth the money to deal
   with these creatures.

   I made a mistake of buying a MAG monitor from them.
   THe MAG monitors are a piece of shit, but that is
   another matter.  Dealing with these creatures over the
   phone and face to face was  worse than the agony of
   replacing the defective monitors 3 times.  They gave me
   the hell every time I have been to their hole.

   They do not take this low quality, defective
   monitor without  charging me  15% for "restocking
   fee".  Now they would not even replace it.
   The "manager" had the audacity to tell me at the
   top of her hysteric voice that she would send the
   monitor back to MAG to get it fixed and I have to
   wait at least 5 weeks...

   This warehouse terribly lacks the honesty and common
   courtesy one would expect from a decent business.  It
   seems like they have not adapted the civilized, western
   business ethics yet and do not have a slightest clue
   about "customer satisfaction".  The manager of this
   slimy business, a hysterical, femme-fatal-wanna-be, was
   the worst business person I have ever dealt with in my
   life.

   Take my word for it, stay away from ART MULTIMEDIA

Well, they have the cheapest price I can find in the ads. I also
bought the system from them, but I do take the collective wisdom
of the newsgroup here and I bought the Samsung 17GLsi elsewhere
and now I know I should feel satisfied (although not sure b4).

Oh yeah, like THAT'S a customer support mecca.  I won't even buy HoHo's at
Fry's.  I'll pay more just for the pleasure of not having to deal with those
dolts.  Yeah, they've got everything (or nearly so) and yeah, their prices
are low (although NCA kicks their *and some other small places are
growing teeth as well) but their sales staff must've been trained by P.T.
Barnum himself.

I'm not sure why you say this, but my guess is that you've had a bad
experience with the company?  (Sorry, I missed the previous post and
only caught the first reply)

If that's the case, please, send me a message to

I call the complaint desk whose main purpose is to point out companies
who have poor service or poor products and warn other people about them.
If anyone is looking for new equipment or planning on mail-ordering
something, please look at this web page first!

The URL is http://umbra.arch.bsu.edu/pshaffer/html/complaint.html

I apologize to people who have sent me things in the past week or so,
we've had some 'net problems and I may not have received it.  I should
have everything that I've received posted on the page by 5pm eastern
time (US).

Enjoy,
  Phil
