Any experience with xcess.com?

Anybody have any experience (good, bad or indifferent) with xcess.com?
They appear to be something along the lines of an outlet store for
Pomona Electronics components.

Good prices, but I'm wondering if they're too good to be true.

Sorry about responding to my own post, but since no one else did, I
figured I'd post my experience.

I ordered a SMA 50-ohm dummy load terminator plug.

Their website said they had two in stock. No problem - I only needed one.

A couple days after I place my order, they tell me they're sold out.

However, the website still says two in stock.

In addition, I paid with a corporate MasterCard. They're refusing to
issue the credit to the corporate card, and insist that I take a PayPal
credit. This means I'm probably going to have to write a personal check
to the company, then do battle with my accounting department to get them
to accept my check against the MasterCard charge.

Guess it's back to Digi-Key, Mouser, et al for me.

Just have the CC company reverse the charge.
