this way Caveat Emptor this way

Shimadzu is a worldwide organization that has a myriad of problems as you will see. The parent company is rooted in Japan, a culture that prides itself on burying it's troubling past. In keeping with this theme, Shimadzu USA (Columbia, MD) has repeatedly attempted to regulate free speech on the internet by going to great lengths to censure this website! Shimadzu has since been instructed to cease and desist! Do the lowlifes at Shimadzu have something to hide.... you betcha! Does Shimadzu want you to see the disquieting information that others have written? Let's just say that this unscrupulous organization will pull the wool over your eyes if you let them.... DON'T let them!

The accompanying web pages contain many references to Shimadzu equipment that has been characterized as defective, difficult to use, not intuitive, low quality, and unreliable, for starters. And similar things have been voiced about Shimadzu's technical support and service departments. This is why one rarely finds reference to the use of Shimadzu equipment in the scientific literature. Shimadzu will tell you the things that you want to hear but they won't tell you what you need to hear (eg, Shimadzu specializes in lies, denials and disappointments). Remember, this is an organization that SHOULD NOT be trusted!

Maybe you've seen and heard enough already but consider perusing what a disloyal Shimadzu Regional Manager had to say.... read his timeless memo! Then you can make up your own mind about Shimadzu products, service and support! If you have any lingering doubts, you might ask why Shimadzu has seen a decline in net sales (when adjusted for inflation) from 1993 to 2006 (that's 14 years running) when compared to FY 1992 (we'll take some of the credit for this). All is not well, this anemic corporation is hemorrhaging profusely. They won't tell you this --- we just did! Remember, DENY and LIE is what they do BEST!

So you might ask.... what kind of purchasing considerations and demo demo guidelines should one adopt before doing business with a prospective vendor? You might also inquire.... who is selling quality instrumentation that is both rugged and reliable? Well, check out our preferred vendor list!
