Friends, I wouldn't ordinarily post a business-related issue on the list; but we can't be the only library contacted by this company and I'd like to know if anyone else is having a problem with them,: Has anyone else been hassled by a company called International Business Directories? They pressured a new assistant here by telling her that we had been receiving this title for years, who finally agreed that they could send us a directory to look at as long as it was free. They sent it; we didn't want it; we finally talked them into authorizing a return (at our expense) after threatening us with, "We have a recording of your assistant authorizing this purchase." We are STILL getting "past due" invoices ( for $217.00) after returning this volume. Anyone else? --shannon ********** ********** ********** Shannon Van Kirk [log in to unmask] Head, Art & Architecture Library 7B Wertz Art & Architecture Library Miami University, Oxford, OH 45056 tel.: (513) 529-6650 FAX: (513) 529-4159 __________________________________________________________________ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] Administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.uky.edu/archives/arlis-l.html Questions may be addressed to list owner (Kerri Scannell) at: [log in to unmask]
