  1. After 317 more tries I now have a confirming email. However, now when I try to log in with my saved infor. I get a white blank page?
  2. Been trying to get this for Christmas. Will not go thru. Says no shipping methods available for my address. Even tried paying shipping. NO GO!! Whats up with this Company??
  3. Does not show aa aaa or 9volts at link. Does not tell you if the 8 paks are c or d. Poor information
  4. No good. Can only order one at a time. Not worth the effort for just one.....
  5. I just found the water heater post and after reading all the previous posts i am confused.. It seems we are talking about both gas and electric tanks. First, let me say i am a licensed installer here in pa. And i have installed over the last 35 years 2000 plus water heaters. All sizes shapes and configurations. I have installed for lowes, sears, home depot and many other sources. I am also on call for service for several tank manufacturers. I do not profess to know everything but for information purposes i submit... All water heaters that are powered by 220 electric have 2 elements. The only exception is a 110 powered unit that is usually a small tank. I have never encountered a 220 tank with only one element. Gas bills will go up with a new water heater gas or electric. Possible reason, new heater puts out better controlled heated water and since it feels so good we take longer showers. There has in the past been issues with the dip tube, however i have not encountered any problems in the past few years that were related to the dip tube. On electric models the most common complaint of no hot water , if self installed, is customer error. They fail to read the book. It is mandatory that before the tank power is turned on the tank must be bled, filled, by opening the hot water valve in the tub furthest from the tank. This allows the air, dirt and debris in the line to blow out. If you open any other faucet you risk blocking the aerators. Once you have a clear regular stream of water, which will be cold, you can then turn it on. You bleed the gas tank the same way so as to discharge any residue. I have not had too many problems with any particular tank. Lowes are made by whirlpool, sears by state water heater and h/d is made by rheem. Again i can not single out any one tank for having excessive issues. I can not comment on the previous mentioned repairs as it is not stated as to what parts were failing. I do know that electric elements do fail. If lime builds up or sludge builds up and coats the element it will burn out. People with hard water will have this problem more so than a home with soft water. Also know that any water heater at any one time only has 70% of the tanks capacity as hot water. The dip tube takes in the cold that is being drawn out. Goes to the bottom where the heat is first on. So a 50 gallon tank only has 35 gallons of hot water. If you are using a 3 gallon per minute shower head and 3/4 people take back to back showers, or you do the dishwasher, or a wash, you can run out of hot water. An 80 gallon tank which i call the motel size will give you 56 gallons. Now this is not a perfect formula because as you are using hot water you are also making hot water. I hope this helps and i will watch for future posts.. Thank you
  6. Got the rest of my order yesterday and all items were perfect. Wished they had uniforms on sale. What i got was great and also a great deal. Thanks to the original poster for the info.
  7. They suck. I got an email saying it would be delayed as it was going to be shipped from another location. No problem with that. Then about an hour ago i get the mickey mouse message that it was an error and to forget about it. Does anyone know what the law may be on this nonsense that these companies pull. Sears sucks did the same thing with the wrench set special. Never even emailed a cancellation notice. Office max sucks......
  8. Sears sucks. Ordered 1 of each. Standard unit cancelled right out. Other set metric never canceled said in stock for pickup no record at store and still not canceled.
  9. Can be bought on ebay. However make sure they have a bar code or they will not be accepted.
  10. Dell Absolutely Sucks If You Have A Problem. Always Try To Pay With A C/card Like Amer Ex. Any Problems Send It Back, Save Receipts And Then Have Amer/ex Take Back The Money. I Bought A Dell 1815 Dn Fax, Printer , Scanner,copier From Dell But Thru Sams Club. I Got A 4 Year Warranty From Sams For $39.00. Dell Wanted 100s. I Am Now On My 6th Dn.... All Free. Once They Would Not Give Me A New One But A Refurb. Said No, So They Took It Back. Went To Sams Got Another New One. Companies Like Dell Make You Be Dishonest Just So You Can Get What You Deserve/paid For. I Have Had To Call Many Times On The 6 Dns And It Goes To Canada. They Are Great, Speak English And Are Not Inclined To Read A Scripted Message Over And Over. Be Persistant And Bug The Hell Out Of Them Carry On...
  11. Another Rip Off!!!!! Total Was 52. + $ Instead Of $22. Oh Well!!!! Its American Business....
  12. At The Bottom Of Every Item Page Is Report This Item. Just Click On It And Follow The Prompts. Even If I Am Looking At An Item And The Shipping Is Crazy I Report It. Ebay Is Supposedly In The Process Or Weeding Out These Thieving Clowns. So Report, Report, Report Them.
  13. I Went To My Local Sears For The Calendar And Was Told $10.00 , Please! I Said I Dont Think So. They Use To Send Them To Craft/club Card Members As A Bonus. I Guess "fast Eddie Lambert" Is Trying To Improve On The 1 Cent Per Share Dividend!!!!!

    A Home Depot Rave!

    There Is Never A Problem With A Home Depot, Lowes, Or Even A Sears Water Heater. They All Have A 4 Digit Code In The Serial Number Such As Gg50m1107aaa456. This Is An Electric 50 Gallon Medium Height Tank That Was Made In 11 Of 07. The Model Number Will Have The Length Of The Warranty Like 06, 09 Or 12. That Is The Years. Very Seldom Do You Need The Receipt Unless It Is Sears Because Sears Succckkkkkksssss!!!
  15. Because Of The Nice People Posting Cvs Coupons And Follow Up Information I Scored Very Big At Cvs. On Saturday Alone I Got $75.00 Worth Of Energizers For $3.10!!!!!. It Was A Challenge With Some Of The Clerks When The Sale Went Negative But I Prevailed. I Also Got Eight Each Of Ener. Recharge. Aa And Aaa For Less1.50cents Each. A Tip To Everyone. I Store All My Batteries And Film In A Regular Refrigerator. They Will Keep For Years If Kept Cold
  16. The Bottom Line Here Is Sears Suuuucccckkkksssss!!! Since Fast Eddie From Kmart Took Over It Has Flown Downhill. Go To The Store Manager And If He Doesnot Help You Demand The Corporate Numbers In Chicago. Call Them And You Want Natioal Customer Complaint Manager. Keep Records Of Date Time And Names. Then When All Is Done Contact Your State Consumer Complaint Office Where You Live. If You Persevere You Will Win. The Bottom Line Is Sears Suuuuuccccckkkkkssssss!!!!
