is it true what They say about SailNet ?
I don't know whether the posting below from a user I don't know to the Sailnet Lists (www.sailnet.com and www.sailnet.com/resources/index.cfm) is correct - but, if it is or becomes so, it may be of interest to readers/posters here in light of how informative/helpful many users of those Lists find them to be: ================= Subject: SailNet RIP [?] Just a heads up to listers. There are many posts all over the email lists and various sailing websites indicating that Sailnet is very close to shutting down. It seems like far more than speculation, as many posts tell of problems with orders, and the lack of response to those problems. The answering machine is full, and emails go unanswered. I had a problem with their online ordering a few days ago, and finally got a salesman on the phone, after major efforts trying to contact customer service with no success. When I told him that Customer Service was ignoring me, he said it was because there was no one there! They are running a 30% off fire sale on all inventory with a no returns/no refunds policy. Many reports today indicate that the remaining stock is pretty well picked through. There are lots of complaints of wrong merchandise, or no merchandise arriving, and no response from Sailnet to rectify anything. Not good. The deposed founders of sailnet, The Boyles, now have a new website at http://www.sailjazz.com They have a complete roster of email groups just like Sailnet, that up until now have been fairly idle. They have a Long Island group, just like Sailnet. They also have virtually all the same lists as Sailnet. |
