I tell her if they want me I'll be on such and such street. | |

Has anybody had any feedback on those Amish heaters? If they are anything like their dorky advertising you can probably count on picking a lot back up. (if they will take them back) | |

Then we can check the unit on the preload to see if it works or RTS it as a damage... It's getting a little cool on the preload...  | |

DishNetwork empty boxes and call tags that get sent to people so they can sent back their dish and receiver. the house is either vacant because they have already moved or in case of call tags they have already dropped off the box at a ups store or somewhere else using the ARS label that came with the empty return box they got 2 weeks ago. | |

I delivered a couple of the amish heaters that did not work. They would only exchange them for new ones and the people wanted a refund instead. | |
