Haven't had it happen yet, but I have been systematically firing them for a number of reasons, not the least of which is no contact with any sales reps by their initialization for close to 8 YEARS! (Except when I complained about this and they showed up unexpectedly on my day off, so it doesn't count)
Another reason is the new pricing on items, I am saving tons of money by shopping around. I am finding that revalidation with similar products hasn't involved too much change. In fact, most changes have been to oour benefit.

We have enjoyed our relationship a number of years buying there product as we need it. We also have changed detection kits as we where advised. Now they are telling us that if we do not go with price per slide they will raise our costs of purchasing our supplies. Example EnVision + dual link system last year cost 1,580.70 this year 3,300 and that this will go in effect March 1st ( just talked to the rep about this Tues) Just 1 example. SOOOO. Has anyone else had this happen to them and what did you do?
