Hello to all Spain Forum readers. Those of you living in Javea will have noticed that about a month ago the doors were closed. I simply want to dispel a few of the rumors currently flying around. Pitstop has not gone bust. Pitstop has not taken deposits for PC's and done a runner. Pitstop never took out a loan - from anyone. Pitstop employees are not under investigation by Microsoft and I am not in jail. Much of the rumor mill starts with competitors who jump at the chance of causing as much harm as possible with a few well placed seeds. Now I'm not one to point the finger at another computer shop within a few kilometers but it saddens me that some people have little else to do in life than to knock the enterprise of others. OK, all that said here's what really happened. I had a business partner, I worked in the shop (with staff sometimes) and for the first 18 months we were happily making a few euros. Many of you (especially other retailers) will know that the economic dip has hit many of us hard. Pitstop was without exception and I made the decision to close the doors and work from my workshop instead. Lower overheads means enough money to put food on the table. On a last note, my partner and I have gone our separate ways, I am no longer a part of Pitstop, my ex business partner is an extremely intelligent and shrewd man who I feel will do something worthwhile with Pitstop. In the meantime, if you need a callout to your home or office please let me know. I still work closely with a few select engineers who really know their stuff. So, no problem is too large or too small. Just call us on 686 597 685. Many thanks if you got to this point.   | ||

Hi Andy, Sorry to read all your problems... This really is nothing to do with your shop, BUT I was wondering if you could help me. I am looking for a ARCE ERICSSON F25m telephone box!? Had one installed by Telefonica which broke, so they removed and replaced it with a LICEA 7000, its absolut rubbish (no phone lines here). Thanks for any info Gill | ||

Hey, really sorry to hear about your troubles. I would just like to take a second to tell you about this great new internet connection that I got. It is free of charge, fast, secure and very stable. Just by using my normal ordinary modem i managed to install it fast and easily. Great service, no fees and no extra charges. They also provide support in English and Spanish! I was really impressed. Check it out for yourself! http://www.gonuts4free.com Enjoy! | ||

'Pitstop has not taken deposits for PC's and done a runner', this according to Andy Hatcher. It sounds like this was an shop run by honest people. But what about the ink cartridges we supplied Andy Hatcher and didn't get paid for?

Ha! it's good to see things or people don't change. Start a business, rip people off, then take the money and run. | ||
