A word of warning about the above title.
Our library was sent in mid-January a copy of the 2003 edition of this
title from Design & Construction Resources / PO Box 52470 / Irvine, CA
92619-2470. We had not ordered it.
Yesterday I received a letter and a pro-forma invoice from them. There
is no phone number on either and you'll notice that it's a PO Box only
and has no street address. The letter asked us to either pay for it
or to write "cancel" on the notice and fax it back to them.
They supply 2 fax numbers. I tried faxing our cancel notice to both
numbers yesterday and today, and I kept getting busy signals on both
numbers both days.
I am now sending them the cancel notice by letter. I have indicated
to them that I have kept the fax reports showing the busy signals as
well as copies of the cancel notice and the letter sent to them.
