I ordered two XB-40s, a C and an A, from Harp Depot when they were first =
announced. This is like early 2003. My card was charged, and then I had =
to wait months before the instruments become available. Several months =
later I received my A XB40, but not the C. I waited, but it never =
arrived. I called several times, left messages, talked with a nice lady, =
but never got a call back. I e-mailed, and got a quick reply from John, =
I believe, who said he would look into my situation immediately. I never =
heard from him again. At this point, it appears there's little chance =
I'll ever see that C XB-40 from Harp Depot. I'll write off to =
experience. From now on I'll do my business with the professionals at =
Coast to Coast.

    My experience with Harp Depot was "mixed".
    Items that were in stock were delivered quickly.
    However, items that were back-ordered were a problem.
    My credit card was charged for items that HD didn't have.
    Then when HD received the back-ordered items, they sent=20
    them all out to other customers, and by mistake, they=20
    still did not send me my order.  I had to wait for them
    to back-order the item a second time.  But eventually,
    I did receive my items, with their apologies.
