A soldier based in Iraq got this response when inquiring as to whether or not the company ships overseas. He wanted to get the troops better gear to sleep on.
To Whom it may concern:
Do you ship to APO addresses?
I'm in the 1st Cavalry Division stationed in Iraq and we are trying to order some mats but we are looking for who ships to APO first.

SGT Hess,
We do not ship to APO addresses, and even if we did, we would NEVER ship to Iraq.
If you were sensible, you and your troops would pull out of Iraq.

What, coordinated, is the best thing to do here? I could send a "you-suck-I'll-never-patronize-you" missive, but that doesn't make them HURT enough.
If there is another source of these mats, We need to find it and put these libturds out of business.

He says thart he may drive to West Allis and see what's at the listed address in in that town.
These scumbags are based in Wisconsin.
WISN is one of the best streams on the Internet: except Jay Weber comes on too early for those of us on the Left Coast.
Belling is good, too. A nice Hannity alternative.
I like how you think, Enological One.
Well well well,

Idiots aside, there are a lot of companies that don't ship to APO addresses, even in Europe. Many of them ship with UPS and not the USPS and mailrooms don't receive UPS.
A lt of us in Germany use ship around services to get our goods.

I'm starting to get the feeling that that address stops all business five times a day.
Even an 800 number.
These folks deserve a denial-of service attack. But that would be wrong.
Getting this information to their customers IS a (moral and legal) denial-of-service attack.
Another interesing domain.
