Author Maytag Store, Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Rt. 309

To anyone from the northeastern part of Pa., in the town of
Wilkes-Barre, a message (non Pontiac oriented)


BEWARE- AVOID the Maytag appliance store on Rt. 309 by Home Depot, in
Wilkes-Barre. The guy that owns it is a major jerk, he talked me into a
$110 gas flow valve for my Magic Chef stove, and then refused to take
it back when that was not the problem.


I had to spend another $75 online to get ignitors, which were the real
problem. And the p-rick won't take the gas valve back.


The store is located right by where the old Zayre's dept. store used to
be, on RT. 309.


BEWARE- SHOP ELSEWHERE !! The guy changes from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde
depending on if you are handing him money or not at the time.

Wow, this is so pertinent to c.l.a. Nevertheless,
although I live in Toronto, I certainly won't trek
down to Wilkes-Barre to buy my Maytags now, after
your amazing heads-up.
Any other bad experiences you'd care to share with
the planet?

Thanks for this very timely and important information!

I personally will try to get a warning posted in the Ulan Bator Times
so that any Outer Mongolians who are not on the Internet or who happen
to be traversing the Gobi desert without their laptops will also find
out about this!!

On second thought, I'm not entirely certain that they use gas stoves
and, last I heard, their flintstone igniters were quite reliable.
