Tom - you are correct that Mr. Posner offered to cancel the back order.  I
also indicated
in my post that I thought Mr. Posner was very honest it admitting that he
didn't Know if
his practice was ethical or not but that it surely wasn't illegal.

What can I say - b and H has very good prices and excellent selection.  I
just got to the
point where it just bugged the hell out me about this one small thing.  Mr.
Posner is on
the newsgroups and appears to be a generally OK guy i just don't agree with
this one
practice.  I suspect that if i were to meet him I'd think he was swell.
Also my experiences
with other mail order companies like DELL is that they religiously avoid any
hint of irregular billing.

Anyway a tempest in a teapot - I feel better having vented - sorry if I
caused a thread to be started
