Thanks to Commodore's excellent to offer, I am able to afford the
A3000 (upgrading from my 128).
After I spoke to an extremely nice customer service operator (who
mentioned the offer before I had a chance to ask about it)...I
contacted the four dealers he gave me to call (I live in north Jersey
and only two were located in north and central jersey, the other two
are in NYC). I called the one in north Jersey...they never heard of
the offer. Plus the saleperson kept putting down the Amiga, saying
Commodore must be desperate with this offer. He said he only sold "two
Amiga 3000s in the last two years." I thought the A3000 just came out
last year! Anyway, he's going to check on the offer and get back to
me.
I called the central Jersey dealer, but they aren't an authorized
service center. Finally I called one of the NYC dealers. They support
the offer, but I don't really want to go to NYC (I don't really trust
the electronics businesses in the city).
If anyone knows of any dealers in the North Jersey or NYC area that
are reliable, please let me know--I don't want to have any problems
with this purchase.
Also, does anyone know when the offer ends. The Commodore operator
wasn't sure, but he believed the end of June. Can someone from
Commodore assure me that this offer won't be revoked or discontinued
early. I graduate this semester and can't afford to pay the regular
prices.
Thanks for any information you can give me.
:)
Lyle.

Amaginations is an only Amiga dealer, but they don't treat their customers well. Leigh's is a mixed computer store, with only one employee who really knows the Amiga well, but he works Wed-Sun and they are friendly and have inhouse service. BTW, service isn't really a problem now that you have on-site service. >Also, does anyone know when the offer ends. The Commodore operator >wasn't sure, but he believed the end of June.

I don't think Commodore won't revoke or be discontinued early when they're officially advertising. >Thanks for any information you can give me. >:) >Lyle. >-- > >------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >:) :( :> :< :] :[ ;) :| :? :} :{ :* :^) :^( :+ :-) :\ :/ :! :$ :' :@ :O :# :<> > l c s @ r e m u s . r u t g e r s . e d u >------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > >Everything stated or expressed in this post is strictly my opinion or viewpoint Wayne Rigby Computer and Systems Engineer (in training) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute metahawk@rpi.edu
