Surefire 123's for $.43? Has to be a mistake, right?

[wigwamitus]

Aye,
I think most vendors I deal with would've just eaten their mistake, but seems these ones want a tussle ... so I guess they will get a little one ... I just don't have time for big ones any more ...

 

[FrankT]

They can make it right or my review will be blistering

 

[wigwamitus]

I'll join you!
Review on Amazon?
(has more reach!)

 

[FrankT]

Well I wrote and am waiting for an answer before doing anything

 

[Oso Grande]

I received 12 packs as well. Email sent.... we'll see.

 

[wigwamitus]

Just received my 2 x 12 packs ... processing return to seller through Amazon.

 

[FrankT]

they still have not answered, I am trying to get the rest of batteries or a discount

 

[Oso Grande]

Just received my 2 x 12 packs ... processing return to seller through Amazon.

I figure I'll wait and see if they make an offer to at least get closer to seeing how I ordered 240 and they sent me 60 ;)

 

[wigwamitus]

You guys are the nice friendly customers ... I'm the a-hole customer

I'll play "bad customer" ... while you guys play "good customer" and we will see what they do!!

 

[FrankT]

hey I am just hoping for more than nothing...lol

 

[wigwamitus]

Well I am calling it "wrong item sent" ... (12 pack instead of 48 pack) so who knows ... maybe they will send me out the proper item in exchange for me returning the improper item
(not counting on it)

 

[FrankT]

GOT THIS, I asked what discount, not gotten back yet
Hello,



I apologize for the inconvenience. It appears that these were incorrectly listed on amazon and the error was fixed. I can offer you a discount on the batteries you received however I am unable to send 36 more out.



Sincerely,

Boo! That is too bad.

 

[wigwamitus]

Well, Frank, is it time to prepare some counter-battery fire?

They certainly are a hoytie-toytie bunch thinking they can screw up and we will eat it for them. Maybe we can get them "booted" off Amazon to make their day.

 

[FrankT]

I will wait for my discount but yeah it is not right

 

[Brian Shaffer]

You know, the vendor handled this all wrong. They should have just refunded the money or filled the orders as specified. Shipping an amount less than what they promised is just wrong.

 

[wigwamitus]

Aye. I'm now more curious as to whether Amazon will agree with us on this point. If Amazon tolerates vendors that behave in this fashion, that is more ominous for me, because wife and I am buying half our "general crap" through Amazon these days ... they have replaced the likes of "J.C. Penny's" at least for us.

 

[Oso Grande]

Agreed. Mistakes happen, it's how vendors correct their errors that are interesting.

I'd have not batted an eye if they had shot an email and said "whoops our bad" and canceled the order. But marking things wrong, shipping something other than what was clearly ordered and saying "too bad" doesn't go over so well.

No reply to my email yet......

In the early days of Amazon, I found an ad, 6 cases of liquid hand soap for $X. Happened to be a soap I liked. I placed my order, and captured a screen shot of the ad page and saved to file. What I received was, one case of 6 bottles for $X. I wrote the vendor about it, they pretty much blew me off. I wrote them again, attaching the screen shot (after they had changed the ad to being what they shipped), and cc'd Amazon. When I did not receive the balance of the original order, I wrote a review in Amazon about the vendor's dealing with me, and describing the transaction. Don't know what affect my review and correspondence had on the vendor, but I quit using that soap once my case of 6 was used up.
