I would probably put more effort into getting rid of all your "under construction" pages on the website. One of the reasons i don't order anything from you guys... Please take this with kindness I'm just being honest.

I'm in, but I still don't get it. Guess it can't be worse than the Please Delete thing.

Picking up the phone is the best bet. Roger prefers to talk to people as opposed to just having people ordering online. It's more personal that way.

chewey8000,
That is exactly why I started 928sRus to get away from the web site plastic mentality.
I would order parts not knowing if I would ever get them, was it the right part, how do I fit it when I get it, will it make any difference !!!!!!!!
We are soooooooooooooo busy filling orders and shipping parts why would I want a web site.
There are already two 928 based web sites out there.
Ordering direct by email or the phone does not work for you and I understand that.
My World Wide customer base disagrees with you.

I can understand that but I would then atleast have product descriptions if you aren't doing online orders. The more options you have for people to obtain your products or even descriptions the more revenue you make. There are some people that enjoy point and click purchases and don't have time for phone conversations. If your that busy though that's awesome! I can appreciate your customer service.

I am so with you when it comes to the "under construction" - that drives me crazy! Roger is what we might call "Old School" when it comes to his business - which is why his customers Luv Luv Luv him, we dont want any of that to change......But-

I've been working on an updated - revamped - website with just a few things in an online shop (just to get the "old man" used to the idea)... - and I say Just Do It! Just Waiting on the Man In Charge to approve it....Truly we are toooooo busy right now that putting orders online would also Drive me Crazy, but still, I say "hey - Just Do It!"

I still haven't figured out how to make me admin again of my own group or is it my fanbook so i can delete the page (or the group)???? wahhh.. mas tequilla por favor.

Just FYI:

928 R US considers the following ‘Page’ to be their official representation

http://www.facebook.com/friends/?fil...s/327696875312

The other is a ‘Group’ and isn’t being administered by them.

Groups are kind of like clubs were like minded people gather and share information amongst peers where Pages are aimed to be more like a billboards were a company or entity can get their message out. Ironically, they both have a lot of overlapping functions and features. So it really does make sense for them to administer a Page, but at the same time there is nothing wrong with a similar Group existing.
