I agree! GL is the Taliban of the surplus world. (A perfect example of
low brow zealots running a huge monopoly funded by the US taxpayers.)
Rule #1. They're right
Rule #2. Your're wrong.
Rules #3 thru #130, ....see rule #1.
GL was a real bad experience for us, never again.
PS My oldest son is project manager for an engineering company who would
have bought from GL, but after reviewing how I was treated...he said screw
em and went elsewhere. I suspect GL has lost a lot of customers thanks
to their bad reputation and management style.
