Re: www.surfings****ts.com: Anybody have problems?

Ok, ok,  it's probably not any of my business, but you're a New Jersey
sailor, correct?

Why not just get what you're looking for at one of the three or more
windsurfing shops in the NJ/PA area?  I'm sure they've all got a
decent selection of harness lines.  You can get what you're looking
for in person and know that you're walking out the door with what you
want rather than "ghost pages" and "dinged credit cards".  And you'll
help sup****t the local shops.

Actually, I'm sure you do give plenty of business locally.  However, I
just can't see why anyone would prefer to purchase anything online,
particularly from a shop on the other side of the country, when they
can shop locally and help keep the local shops going.
