I agree fully. Last night my wife and I dropped a few hundred at S@H. It took me 4
minutes to give all the info.
I was asked for the Blue box, the yellow box & all that too. But it took ages...
Back when S@H was in Canada (I'm in Canada) they always had my info. It took like
40 seconds to order.
Last time my wife complained about it they said it was because the computer can't
accept Canadian orders yet so it couldn't save it... But it's been 3 months now...
But, I'll say that they are professional. I could have sworn that the woman on the
phone was a robot...
