Re: [Elecraft] Order status query goes unanswered
Eric has asked that the tread be closed. He's also given alternatives to making this kind of complaint in public. I can think of at least one other way to get through to Elecraft that doesn't involve the list or an overseas call.

Hi Stewart, Lisa (sa...@elecraft.com) sent you a reply in response to your original email inquiry. She also just sent you another email on this shortly after you posted the email below. Have you received her latest reply? Our replies frequently get caught inadvertently in customer spam filters. You might also want to check there.

Re: [Elecraft] Order status query goes unanswered
And, it is much more common that those automated replies -never- have anyone read a response, should the recipient of the auto-response happen to reply to it. The fact that someone from Elecraft -does- scan the account for possible replies is very unusual. So... bottom line: if you want a timely response email sales, not sales3. Or, give them a phone call. 73 de Ray K2ULR KX3 #211 On Mar 4, 2015, at 10:28 AM, Chester Alderman wrote: Wes, I don't think anyone should be questioning your intelligence because you wanted to know the status of your order, especially after hearing nothing from Elecraft!
