And I believe it does. But few businesses are perfect, especially when
they are small ones with not enough personnel to deal with spikes in
the workload.

I didn't say there wasn't a profit motive. I was suggesting they could
make a lot more making other stuff.

And, short of specific day by day updates to the shipping dates, we
have been kept informed.

I do expect to get what I paid for. But no contract was offered or
entered into regarding a shipping date. The only dates that have been
mentioned were target dates. And targets, as I thought everyone knew,
can be missed.
