Anyway I called AutohomeUSA and spoke to Mike for the first time. He was incredibly responsive to my needs including shipping me a full set of hinges for my Overland...and at no-charge!!! I fully expected to pay for the hinges since it was clearly not a warranty issue. And I had the hinges in just a couple days! Mike: I owe you another snifter of good aged rum & triple ginger snaps .

Fast forward to when I decided the Overland really wasn't the tent for me after all. Mike made things right (actually more than right!) with me when I decided to 'upgrade' to the Maggiolina.

I have been in the customer service business, in one form or another, the past 25-years. I am probably more sensitive/critical than most about service before, during and after the sale. It is comforting to know that when/if I have a need for parts, service or whatever Mike will do what is humanly possible to satisfy the customer. There aren't too many goods/services I buy that come with that type of commitment from the vendor/supplier: Truly refreshing in today's age!

BTW: No connection to Autohome or Mike...other than I am a 100% satisfied customer.
Thanks for your kind words, Dan. Most of our customers are really great to work with. Probably 98% of them are interesting people doing interesting things. I am working on filter that will help identify the 2%er's.
