B&H
"Mike S." wrote in message ... Watch word wap on the URL. http://www.inc.com/magazine/20090501...rtner=fogcreek I've been a very satisfied B&H customer for decades. Great store, and I also never bother to look elsewhere, especially since B&H has such a great replace/refund "satisfaction guarantee", which I have used, in addition to good "real" prices with small or no shipping charges (unlike the inflated charges and "restocking fees" of many other dealers). B&H is a "class act". There is only one other shop in the same class that I know of - Stellar Stereo, a local TV/audio shop that has also been around for many decades, and which considers customer satisfaction above all else. Seems like a good formula for success...;-) --DR |

B&H is a "class act". A "class act" ran by owners who had to be sued in millions to force them treat their employees properly. Yeah, that's real "class" alright. They might now outwardly act differently but I'll bet you anything that they don't inwardly believe nor think one bit differently. The lawsuit only forced them to be not so up-front about their blatant bigotry. They'll just find newer and more subtle ways to accomplish the same things they've openly done in the past. People like that never do change their values. You can take that hard fact all the way to the bank. B&H who? Sorry, I had to switch all my purchases to more reputable dealers. B&H doesn't exist anymore after they were forced to show their true faces and colors. |

They failed for one reason: They treated customers poorly -- john mcwilliams |

Not for any claoms, but if you meant claims, anyone can do this: http://www.google.com/search?q=b%26h...nation+lawsuit Perhaps you take things too literally. B&H doesn't exist anymore for those who only want to support companies that are owned and operated by reputable and respectable humans. Let other companies now learn from B&H's mistakes, lest they too commit the very same criminal acts against humanity. B&H isn't needed anymore. They now only serve as a good example of how nobody else should ever run their businesses. A lesson to others, that is all they are good for. Nobody did this to B&H but themselves. Bye bye B&H! You won't be missed. Even better prices can be had from other companies for identical products. You don't find that out until you stop blindly shopping at B&H. In a way I'm glad this all came out otherwise I wouldn't have gone looking for and found several other suppliers that are much better than B&H ever was. |

Not for any claoms, but if you meant claims, anyone can do this: http://www.google.com/search?q=b%26h...nation+lawsuit Interesting but only a little. This sure as hell doesn't effect how I think about B&H. They're still the best. This suit was brought by the same EEOC that started legal proceeding Only started? Never finished? That's not very good justification for your own support of bigotry. You'll have to do better than that. Only justifiable claims are fully pursued, or are you that daft to not know this. against Hooters for not hiring fat hairy men to work as servers. They like to invent reasons for their (EEOC) existence. How nice of you to justify supporting proven modern-day bigots with any excuse that you can drag up. That makes you equally bigoted. Couldn't you find some typos in the lawsuit court records and use that as an excuse too? This speaks tomes about your own character, none of which is worth knowing more than you've already just shown to the world. Let me guess. You're a paid, bent-over, shill for B&H. How much do they pay you to do their much needed PR damage control? The more that you say in support of them the worse they'll look. I didn't think that B&H looking worse would ever be possible, but here you are, one bigot supporting another. Financially yet, too. Doesn't get sadder than that. Half a century ago I bet you would have been wiring monetary donations to the Nazi movement while claiming, "They're still the best." Just because B&H doesn't have gas-chambers at the ready doesn't make their discriminatory values and resulting behaviors any less reprehensible. The owners of B&H will do it again, they'll just find a way that's far less obvious next time. |
