While on the topic of asshole companies and in need of venting, let me tell you about the LiPo battery charger I ordered in early September from "RC & ME Hobbies."
I waited until the 7th of October to finally email them, asking where my product was. A week without response, I call them. Nobody's there - during hours they have listed as times they should be in. I call every 10-30 minutes for a couple hours. Finally, someone picks up. "Sorry, but the guy who handles that won't be in for, uh... another hour or so, okay?" "Alright. Thanks."
Hour later, I call. "Hi, my names x, I ordered x in x, but my package still hasn't arrived." "YOU'RE JOKING!!!" "..." "Alright, what's the order number?" "x" "Well let me check in on that. I'll have to contact the shipping department, so...." "Alright. Thanks."
One week later, I call. "Hi, I'm x calling about the x I called about last week. I ordered it in September and never received it." "Alright, what's your order number?" "x" "Alright, well - our shipping department isn't in right now, so I'll have to call you back later, okay? "Mm." It was the same guy I talked to last time.
Wtf. Their shipping department isn't in? Well where the fuck is it? It apparently hasn't shown up for weeks.
Edit: Alright, the dextrose tablets have worn down and I can laugh at the absurdity of the situations. In fact -- lol. And a correction -- I ordered the product in the end of August. They didn't ship it until September 10th, though the USPS doesn't acknowledge anything was physically sent.
