They confirmed my order. Fingers crossed they actually
ship them, and it doesn't
turn into an argument about honoring transactions. Though probably, a higher postage
cost would be fair. 88 floppies and covers will weigh a bit. (Should have bought 100.)

They DID ship them. Just received notice of shipment.
You know, the postage from Garland, Texas to LA, CA for a box of 88 floppies would
have been more than $6.95. How much more, I don't know.
Could they have made a loss on that transaction, hence the price bump?
That's not the same BG Micro we bought stuff from
in the
early 80's, is it?
bill
The one with the yellow photocopied catalog?
That's the same one.
The owner/founder passed away a year or two ago and I believe his daughter is running it
now.

Can anyone estimate the likely US postage for that package? Please let me know.
If BG Micro are badly out on that transaction, I'll contact them and make it up to
them.
Would not if it was some big corp, but BG Micro are clearly honest. Such a rarity.
Funny, I was thinking of Diogenes and his lantern just the other day.
