It looks like HPA is getting with the times as far as internet service. toyoenterprisesusa.com

When I think of HPA... high tech futuristic customer service does not enter the picture. But at least they are embracing cutting edge on line retail techniques.

I wonder how long Buzz Rickson stays with them untill they pull the plug just like ELC did?

As much as everyone is lamenting an assumed demise of HPA, anyone notice that both HPA and ELC are now partnered with Buzz Rickson? Coincidence? No such thing.

Haven't they always been?

Now more than ever, it would seem.

I will say this for HPA; I had called back at the end of June about the L-2 jacket. They had nothing in stock that would possibly fit (I need the biggest they got and even then prob. not) I had a voice mail yesterday saying that they had restocked and to call them if I had any questions. That is a plus customer service wise.

Although it's been a few years since I bought from HPA, I've always had good cordial service from them- even when I had to return a few. I just think they really need to provide for online ordering.

HPA appear to be BR North American sole importer, ELC are same for the EU, arrangements made independently with BR and I doubt anything to do with previous ties.

HPA and ELC both partnered with Buzz at the same time (4 years ago?). HPA is obviously expanding their relationship with Buzz though.
