The fabulous world of online shopping errors - laarree - 12-01-2009
I ordered a psychology book entitled "Malignant Self Love: Narcissism
Revisited" (don't ask...) from Barnes & Noble's website for the first time
in years a couple of days ago after years of being an Amazon purist,
and found the package sitting on my desk at work today, pleased
that it had arrived so promptly. I opened it up, and discovered that
I had received instead a 12-DVD boxed set of "The Rogers & Hammerstein
Collection", featuring "Oklahoma', "Carousel", "The Sound of Music", etc.
Way to go, Barnes & Noble!

HOWEVER Barnes & Noble only charges $44.99 for the item you did not want, whereas at Amazon the item you did not want costs $72.49!

If I was more clever, I could make a profit off of this.

Just think how the guy who ordered the DVDs will feel when he gets your book instead. :biggrin:
