I don't know if the stories of next day service are true, here we get a replacement six to seven days after I drop one in the mail. I wrote them with a complaint, they flatly denied stretching the delivery artificially. Not sure I believed them, but that is of only academic interest, as we still get about 12 a month, and that makes them buck-fifty each, with no hassle of driving anywhere, so overall I consider this great.Funny... all that... as we certainly do not live in the middle of rural Nebraska... Phily is half an hour away, and Baltimore a bit over an hour. This is densely populated area, so I do smell some horseshit in their story, but to me this is still the only game in town. There is a rental store with good selection, but they take 20 minutes each way, price is $3.75 a pop and the owner is a real asshole.
Tough choice... I must admit.
