FAILED to honor valid coupon - AND - later sent "denial" about UNREQUESTED CREDIT LINE!
1. FAILED to honor valid coupon 15% Coupon received from Newark element14 via e-mail, "BUY14E", valid through April 7, 2014 was not honored for order placed on March 27, 2014 - 10 days before coupon would expire! 2. After order was placed, I received an e-mail message stating, "At this time we are unable to extend an open line of credit to you." The order was placed by me, as an individual, paid by credit card - I NEVER requested an open account. 3. The shipping charges fro a small, $35 LCD display amounted to nearly $10. THANKFULLY, there are Mouser, Arrow, Digi-Key and other suppliers, including TI eStore that stock the same items, at equal or better prices, that honor their coupons and that do not send out erroneous and inappropriate messages - THEY will get all of my future business - Newark element14 will never receive another order from me - NEVER!
