Someone Needs to Laugh About It
May. 31st, 2007 02:59 pmI thought perhaps that someone on my f'list might get a giggle out of the fact that I spent $40 on (note:the link goes to the Blowfish catalog, which may not be appropriate for everyone's workplace) lube yesterday. And $30 of that was overnight shipping from California.
Each time I order, I'm reminded of why I like Blowfish so much. I went hunting for the lube on Amazon, saw they had it in stock and they claimed if I ordered within the next 5 hours and 16 minutes, I could have it on May 31, threw it into my cart and proceeded to check out, where I suddenly discovered that they claimed it would ship on May 31. In the current situation, that's not good. A phone call to customer service where I discovered that they could not, in fact, have it to me by Thursday, and I checked other sources I knew of for the lube. A phone call to Blowfish, a very helpful person on the phone who told me that she could make sure it shipped that day, and I would have it on Thursday, and oh, did I know that one of the Blowfishies got pregnant while testing out the Pre-Seed? And, the person on the phone mentioned that while they advertised the three pack, she thinks the supplier send six packs, and so for now, people are ordering the three packs and getting the six packs for the three pack price. Can't do better than that.
