You are definitely not someone I would want to do business with, enough said. If you want to continue on this, take it offline with me. I don't want to waste everyone's time here.
Who am I? Just your average FM'er who likes hanging around here because of the civilized manner most FM'ers usually express.
What I meant was without clarification from Helen that there was a order change later by OP, the sentiment would have been mostly against Adorama in this case. In my book, this is not a lose-lose situation, as I have more confident with Adorama in the future if it ever comes to this. If I were Adorama, I certainly would have done the same thing.
This thread may be 9 pages, but my guess is that its impact, or that or any other thread like it, is almost nil. How many of you had a positive image of Adorama, but will no longer from them next time around? Basically, while we enjoy the tug o' war, we have our own opinion, and that matters more than what happened (or didn't) to some guy out there due to circumstances that will not happen again.
In many instances, this type of rant comes from someone "taking it personnally", meaning feeling personnally slighted (ignored, rejected, offended, hurt) by some event.
That is why (1) Adorama/Helen cannot "win", since it is the OP's sole choice to continue to act wounded rather than move on, and (2) Adorama/Helen cannot "lose" either, because, the moment a client takes matters personnally, he/she takes away any general or generic value the incident might have.
