I heard rumors they favored new members over established members in giving out the latest releases, but didn't think anything of it until... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~433526771332 Thu, 12 Jun 2008 21:42:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_433526771332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_420896804484?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author holosys - Tivo has been a hellish experience. As a serious 'technophile' it deeply disappoints me to feel so frustrated about my terrible Tivo experience, that I want to warn others through this review. After suffering with TiVo for almost two... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~420896804484 Wed, 5 Mar 2008 02:56:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_420896804484?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_420773793412?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author holosys - I never thought this day would come.

I ordered a very nice Leverpull model that was rated at 60,000 uses; substituted a Screwpull model rated at 2,000 uses without even asking if I wanted it. Left messages with customer service. Received no call-back from Wine... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~285059092100 Wed, 29 Nov 2006 03:28:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_285059092100?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_241623993988?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author holosys - I ordered the Magellan Roadmate 800 Portable car GPS Navigation System w/ MP3/Photo Viewer for a lower price than a lesser model of the same brand.

I ordered it over the Internet from my local Stevens Creek BMW dealer and was given a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221610937988 Wed, 22 Feb 2006 22:54:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221610937988?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_221608447620?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author holosys - Could not cancel back-ordered sports and coins months ahead of shipments!

In the past 2 years I have purchased 2 giant and beautiful star sapphires both in excess of 120 carats.
