[Histonet] Dako

[Horn, Hazel V]

My purchasing agent notified me of the huge markup of their
reagents/antibodies.   I called my rep told them I was unhappy and would
have to look elsewhere and they decided to give me the old pricing for a
year.  I still don't have it in writing.

We not only have noticed a huge mark-up on their products, but it is
taking longer to receive shipments from them.  Did Dako go through some
sort of re-org or had major lay-offs resulting in fewer people having to
do more??
