PhotoPoint NEEDS To PAY UP
I too agree that something SHOULD be done... we are spread all over the country but thru e-mail we can keep in contact. Taking payment for something you KNOW you are not going to deliver is fraud. Big Business these days are getting away with murder... always hiding behind chapter 1...

PhotoPoint Screwing of the Little People

Since we paid our subscription fees by credit card, call your CC and get a partial refund. Then send a email to the FBI Fraud Div and SEC.
All this would do is to prevent the perpetrator from doing it again.
