Standing orders and auto shipments were common in 1978 and were rejected by many localities i.e. Rosemead, Denver, Boston etc This played a role in the demise of Max. By divine coincidence I was on a business trip to Denver when they did the unthinkable act of sending back their shipment, what chaos followed.
