I have been trying to buy some backpacks for Bella. Specifically I wanted this:
I had seen it on a dog at the last hike we went on and really liked it. So I went online and searched for it. I found the company that makes and sells it and I went to place my order. As I'm placing the order I get an error message that I didn't enter a state. Hmmm.... I go back and look and guess what? There is no Hawaii on the list of states. They don't ship to Hawaii?? WTF??? I was so angry I shot off a nasty email to the company. This is the 21st century and Hawaii has been a state for 52 years. You can even send things here via ground transportation - it takes forever but it can be done. I was really angry and still am. I have run across a few companies that won't ship to Hawaii and it's just so ridiculous. In this day and age, really?!?!?!? I mean I can do business anywhere in the world due to technology. I could hire a raleigh business lawyer if I needed one without ever going near Raleigh. I just get tired of incompetence and that's what it boils down to. They don't want to take the extra step to ship to Hawaii, though honestly I don't know what that step would be. Anyway, I found it somewhere else for cheaper. And they ship to Hawaii.
