The ad. claimed that. this was a limited offer, but I've received absolutely nothing, in spite of the fat that I've written repeateiy and demanded my money back. Can IMPACT help me please? - We wrote the firm in question and have received word back, that your order was apparently misplaced. That explanation may well be the reason that you didn't receive what you paid for, but it certainly doesn't explain why you got no acknowledgement from your many letters. However, all's well that ends well, and by now you should have received your refund, in full, along with their, "most sincere apologies." call BILL MELICK at your COLLISION REPAIR CENTRE?

GODERICH 1 never ever thought that I'd be the one who would ever buy, "a pig in the poke," so to 'speak, but alas, I succumbed to a very tempting advertising promotion. 1 wanted to pay COD for some big band records from. an American mail order firm, but wastold it was cash with order, and as you've probably guessed by now, my money order has been cashed long ago and still no big band records have arrived. I've sent them letters in- cluding a registered one but nothing happens! We have received word that your records have now been shipped ... they apologize for the long delay, but claim that the response to this offer was so tremendous, that they were caught unawares, hence the slow delivery. • EVERYDAY DOWN - TO - EARTH VALUES Furnit rid IN THE SUNCOAST MALL OPEN: MON.-FRI.

We must point out to our readers, that although the majority of these firms are classed as legitimate, in a great many cases their business ethics leave much "to be desired."
