5/5

I recently bought a Pioneer plasma TV from Satellite and Sound of Tempe, AZ. They are one of the authorized online vendors for Pioneer plasmas, and the TV was priced quite attractively. Dave Getz is one of the most professional mail order vendors I had the pleasure of dealing with. He promptly and clearly answered all my questions prior to the sale and never pressured me into buying anything. He also provided tracking info and packaging/inspection/delivery tips which turned out to be very useful. The TV was delivered via motor freight in a very timely fashion (five days from order to delivery). I'm a completely satisfied customer and I'd recommend them without reservation.

I'll submit a positive commentary on X10 for a change. True: X10 has pretty much jumpstarted the popup web ad trend and they still spam the h*ck out of their hapless customers (one would hope they'd eventually get a major clue and realize that they drive customers away with that practice). However, I was quite pleasantly surprised with a recent order. I ordered a $20 product from them based on an unbelievable price (over 30% less than the closest competitor). It was a calculated risk - I fully expected a million spams and no product. Much to my embarrassment, the correct order arrived at my doorstep less than 36 hours from the initial order. As an added bonus, it was mailed from California (to a California address) and I was not even charged CA sales tax! Amazing. (As for getting your address on their spam list for life, just use a disposable e-mail address -- that's what I did).
