    Do Not Shop At 24electric.com

    If you want an electrical item I suggest you shop anywhere but 24ELECTRIC.COM. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST SHOPPING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE! I cannot stress how much I would advise people to avoid 24 electric. Ive been waiting over 8 weeks for my order and still no sign. To confound matters people who have purchased after me have received theirs. They are a dissorganied bunch of muppets. THESE PEOPLE ARE COWBOYS, STAY WELL CLEAR!! THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST SHOPPING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE! LOOK ELSEWHERE PEOPLE!

    I think it's a bit unfair to brand them cowboys and demand everyone else steer (no pun intended) clear after one bad experience.

    Well, if it's common, then fair enough - the people deserve to know The initial post just comes across as a bit of a pissed-off rant.
