Politeness doesn't make up for bad customer support.

if youve ever worked in a retail environment or customer service, you should already know the answer I'm afraid. It sucks it happened, and I'm sorry it happened to you, but it's good to be more aware, or wait till the item goes on sale in the future, if you'd be willing to wait the timer.

I have worked in retail and this has totally been a reasonable thing to do. Maybe it's the culture around here, I dunno it just doesn't sit right with me. I'm not asking for some kind of deal or compensation anymore. I can take the no once it's given to me and as I said the price difference of the sale isn't going to kill me. I just think maybe updating policies to that of contemporary online sales services might be a step in the right direction.

I did post this thread fresh off being miffed with the news. It really upset me for a whole 20 minutes. So my bad if I was sounding whiny or like I was trying to get some special deals. The real point was me wanting to throw in my two cents on policies. Half my job involves dealing with customers so I'm just kinda conditioned to wanting to be a happy customer like I make mine.
