Talk about a bunch of whiners !!!!!!! Ya pays yer money and ya takes yer chances. I am not a big fan of the mag. either, but to blame them for your own misjudgement is irresponsible. My suggestion would be that if you have that much money, hire someone to do the legwork for you, preferably someone extremely knowledgeable about what you want. As for myself in this situation, I would have lived with them, things would have been done to my expectations. Then again, I'm not that picky, I'm more interested in ultimate offshore ability, not impressing my guests or showing off my purchaseing power. These people have unrealistic expectations. I have a big drill press in my shop, made in china, it was WAY cheaper than a good American made unit, but the quality is not even close to the compareable domestic or european built press. GO FIGURE !!!!!!
