Don't remember seeing your face in the group discussion. Only your name and
the OP's comments.

  I buy more from ADI than Mugford and ten like him.  Do you

Get with it Robert, Mugford wasn't even involved in this thread. Obviously
he has gotten into your head. Try to concentrate on what you are saying, it
will help you keep your stories straight.

  They bend over backward to take care of my account.

No, I think they simply got tired of being bent over backwards with your
warranty abuse.

Really...

 I say most because I don't buy enough GE stuff to keep an open account with
them.

To keep or get an open account with them?

You're a third party distributor, so what you are saying is that you are
buying from a competitor for less money.....hmmm..

That is either BS or that distributor is a complete fool. Tell us how
warrantys work when buying from resellers like yourself Robert, unless your
dependant on the manufacturer not knowing the product was resold and then
resold again. Do you offer full disclosure about the manufacturers warranty
when you sell  parts to your customers Robert?

There's that Mugford name again. Bad Norm, go to your room for getting into
Robert's head.

Supporting the deadbeats are you? If he handled his account in a way to
loose it, how does he handle the rest of his business? But again there are
parts sellers and there are those that are in the security business. Parts
sellers don't care who they sell to. How many unlicensed contractors do you
sell to Robert? Since you are so anti-regulation, you probably never
considered inquiring about licensing when selling to someone that is
obviously buying more than a DIYer would buy, have you?

You don't have a clue what Napco or anyone else outside this forum says
"about" you. You only know what they say "to" you.

A persons reputation is only as good as his last transaction. How long ago
was your last install?

A few years ago, when I was in high school, I was an All-State football
player and had lots of articles written about me, but you don't see me
trying to compete with the "pros" today.

So what are you trying to say? That because your an old timer, the people in
tech support should bow down to the phone when you call?

Except when they are being abused.
