Now 11 days later and they send me a survey asking how I like my TV.

Google hits me too. Worse review. I had fun with that.

Then I decide to call.
20 minutes and a lot of "press ,sumpin", bad music and reasons why I
should choose Tiger direct, it occurs to me "why am I waiting on the
phone to tell them I am tired of waiting on a TV"? So I hung up.

I tried Email and the response was some bull**** about problems at the
shipping department

Were they lying when they said it went out on 9/18 or are they lying
now?

1900 EST and nothing back from TD

Why didn't you support your local merchant?

They were a local merchant until recently. They took over the CompUSA
store in Ft Myers but I was by there the other day and discovered the
store was closed. Too bad, they were convenient if you needed a quick
computer component. I can get most of what I need from Amazon with
free 2 day shipping but being able to drive over in 15 minutes or so
was a good thing.
