Especially in retail. It is a good subject for discussion. Should websites have customer service numbers?
edit: and btw, this was never meant to be a pissing, bitching thread. Its just business and a discussion of such. Sheesh, it amazes me how these things can spiral when people jump on various bandwagons.

Ha... maybe I shouldn't have held back then of what I really thought about the post. lol
And if this is just talking business, hit me up in SF and I'll give you a few good business pointers of my own. Just business, no need to get offended. Fair is fair, right?
