Default WARNING! Avoid CREIA rip-off! California Real Estate Inspection Association thieves!

We'll I wanted to see what CREIA's Commercial Inspection SOP looked like so I went to their online store at http://shop.creia.org/index.asp?Page...PROD&ProdID=43 and spent $135.00 plus shipping to download the pdf. Guess what, after they steal your money they don't give you the download... they tell you they have to mail it (real hi-tech, huh? ). I finally got it today and it is a grand total of 2 pages long.

What a rip-off!

Warning to all... avoid the CREIA store.

Here is the one and only real Commercial Inspection SOP... no charge: www.nachi.org/comsop.htm

Nick, send it back and tell them the CD was delivered with only a 2 page PDF document and is obviously missing $135.00 worth of content!

Page 2 is nothing but definitions. What nutty inspector uses CREIA's one page commercial SOP? And what bunch of pompous aholes have the nerve to sell a 1 page SOP for $135 + shipping charges?

Rip-off!
