| 244091 | 2004-06-13 11:05:00 | Ok, by now most of you are sick of my posting, but I thought that I should bring to attention. It appears not all are as nice as I would imagine... the company in question is Adelong something or other... I sent an email to an Australian company, inquiring whether they ship to New Zealand (guess what for...). This is how the emails went: My first email to them Hey, Do you guys ship to New Zealand? Thanks, Arya Parsi ---------------------------------- Their first reply Yes we do. ---------------------------------- My second email to them Oh awesome. How much would it cost to ship the Gigabyte GA-7NNXP motherboard to Wellington? Cheers, Arya Parsi ---------------------------------- Their second reply $20.00 ---------------------------------- My third email to them NZD or AUD ? So that would bring the complete total price to... Thanks, Arya Parsi ---------------------------------- Their third reply $295 + $20 = $315 AUD ---------------------------------- My fourth email to them Excellent, I will be in touch. thanks, Arya Parsi PS. You do still stock that board, right? ---------------------------------- Their fourth reply YES WE STILL KEEP THE ITEM IN STOCK. THANKS ---------------------------------- My fifth email to them Sooo... lovely weather, huh? ---------------------------------- I still haven't received a reply.... now my last email was merely to anger them, and they weren't very nice in their fourth reply :D |

| 244095 | 2004-06-13 11:23:00 | > how do you see the fourth reply as being nasty????? Well TYPING IN CAPS is seen as shouting. It would be fair to interpret Growly was being shouted at. Could also have been a different person on the other end answering emails with their caps lock stuck... Still not very professional to talk in capital letters. > my first reaction to that lot is...."grow up!" > their reply wasn't nasty. of course you never got a reply to the last one. what where expecting....the weather forcast ???? > talk about reading between nonexisting lines. I would say they might have been getting a bit impatient with Growly. Can't see an apparent reason either, it wasn't like his emails were rude. |

| 244098 | 2004-06-13 11:45:00 | Hi Growly, I meant to ask you, whats so fantabulous about the Gigabyte GA-7NNXP that you couldn't do without instead of one of the other motherboards that are available Baldy |
