[DeTomaso] DB starter direct link?

[MikeLDrew at aol.com]

Dudes,

I just phoned and ordered the starter.   Actually, I ordered another one 
for myself, just because.

I have to say that if you are even remotely considering one of these 
starters, you simply must telephone them rather than order them on the internet, 
for two distinct reasons.

The price on the internet is $49.95.   When I phoned, I asked if there was 
any discount for buying more than one at a time, and the fellow told me no, 
the price on the internet is already at at rock-bottom, and they're not 
making much profit on each starter as it is.   He then told me that the price on 
the internet was $43.95 each.

Must be looking at a different internet than I am. :>)

(Quite possible really--they have a website, and an E-bay store, and 'buy 
it now' auctions, and it's likely that their prices aren't consistent from 
one place to another).

But the other reason to call versus ordering online, equally compelling, is 
because they are located in what appears to be the very most backwoodsian 
part of Tennessee.   The fellow that answered the phone was a super-nice guy 
who sounded *exactly* like Goober from The Andy Griffith Show. :>)

America is filled with a rich variety of English dialects, and few are as 
charming and wholesome to me as that of the Tennessee mountains.   You can 
just imagine smiling, friendly, good-natured people when you hear that form of 
speech.

Made my day. :>)

Mike
