(...) Woah you had me scared for a bit. Looking at your subject and the way you started off your message, I thought you ordered original light grey brick packs and received new light grey brick packs (would've been worse if it involved dark (...)

(...) I can understand being frustrated, but writing off the entirety of the LEGO company because one keyboard jockey at S@H made a mistake is pretty lame.

Wow!!! That is crazy. I can see an "amateur start-up" making that kind of rookie mistake but that shouldn't happen at a seasoned place like our dear Lego Shop@Home. I had one order this fall that was pretty messed up as well. I ordered a bunch of (...) (20 years ago, 9-Dec-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.dear-lego)
