more of a moan than a rant really
I put all the Grandma’s Attic books that Amazon UK stock onto my wish list, after new year I may well buy them all but I’m hoping Mum will get a few before then. There are some that they don’t stock and although I could get them second hand I would like to get them new if I could (I don’t mind second hand books if I can look at them first but I’m a bit more cautious off the web) So I found all the ones I needed on another UK bookstore site, put in the order and off I go. Didn’t get a confirmation so I mailed them today to enquire (very politely considering I’m hormonal this week - can you tell???) why they had not confirmed the order to be told “oh sorry, we don’t carry those books so we had to get them in from another bookstore and we can’t track one of them down at all so we are going to refund you on taht one”
WHY ON EARTH ARE THEY ON YOUR ******* SITE THEN if you don’t stock them???????????????? rant stamp whinge I could have carried on looking and maybe got them elsewhere and had the next book ready to go by next week if I’d known that you had a store full on non-existant books you inconsiderate morons!!!! Sorry, I shall now stop behaving in a manner taht even my 4 year old knows isn’t right and grow up…. (maybe)
Off to eat chocolate and sulk

no, I’m with you there. You probably don’t recall my rapunzel agonies of last Chrimble, but it was exactly that situation, and I didn’t email them, just found out when the parcel turned up minus the doll.
