I just wanted to say that I have done business with jb Technologies many times, and have never had a problem. When a drive was shipped dead (it happened once to me), I sent it back, and recieved a working one. I've bought 6 drives from jb Tech. -- ben@epmooch.UUCP ben%servalan.UUCP@uokmax.ecn.uoknor.edu {chinet,uokmax}!servalan!epmooch!ben (Ben Mesander) War in gulf: newpath 288 396 216 0 360 arc 288 612 moveto 288 180 lineto 288 396 moveto 136 244 lineto 288 396 moveto 440 244 lineto 36 setlinewidth stroke showpage

In an attempt to provide a little balance I would like to say that I recently purchased one of their KPTI 42 meg drives, with a trade-in of a 20 meg Epson drive that was broken. I recieved the new drive in just over three weeks from the day I shipped the bad drive out. This is not bad considering the fact that it was during the Christmas season and the normal UPS transit time between NY and CA is 6 working days. All in all I am very pleased with the treatment I received from them and have no reason to not recommend them in the future. -- /// /// "Only Amiga Makes It Possible!" lime!mcc \\\ /// \XXX/ "On the other hand, you have different fingers..."

BOYCOTT JB TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
THESE PEOPLE ARE CROOKS !!!!!!!
I want to alert the net and maybe keep someone from having the same
frustrations with the company.
The company is jb technologies in Moorpark, Ca. On December 15, 1991
I sent them a dead Seagate 4144R as a trade in on a Microscience 1020
they had advertised in Computer Shopper. The Microscience drive was
supposed to be new, in stock, and ship promptly after my drive arrived.
This is February 12, 1991, eight and a half weeks later. All I have for
my old drive is about $30.00 in long distance phone bills trying to find
out the status of my order.
So far I have determined that my Seagate was received on December 27,
that the salesperson I placed my order with no longer works there,
and that I've got a problem. I will admit that after placing 6 calls
to customer service I got back one phone call after I was bluntly rude
to the person who answers the phone. No one has bothered to call back since.
My complaint form for the Better Business Bureau came in the mail today.
I plan to call the Computer Shopper vendor complaint line tomorrow after
I look up their number at home. I will be calling the California Consumer
Affairs board tomorrow. Like I said I am !!_NOT_!! a satisfied customer.
I seriously recommend
STAY AWAY FROM JB TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
DO !!_NOT_!! BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM !!!!
Send your complaints to jb technologies.
