They are freakin' awesome to deal with. Last year I purchased a complete 14th C rig and was kept in the loop the entire time. Customer service is as outstanding as the product!!

Tbob, Hello again! Decided to dodge reality once again and go for another degree so I have not had much time at all to surf the net or play SCA (which really bites as I am on a sabatical from reality =).
