(...) Well, ultimately, Nick should *not* eat the cost. I agree that the Entertainer should, if anyone does. This was all essentially their fault anyway - the mistake, the orders needing to be cancelled, yada, yada, yada... (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I did get 8 of a set instead of 9 but today I'm going to the UPS center to pick up what I think may be a duplicate shipment that order. I've gotten slow delivery and very speedy delivery both. (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Because they shouldn't have processed the charge in the first place (IMO). It's probably true that the credit card company would probably not take an actual loss anyway so that probably makes more sense. Perhaps just a peeve of mine but I don't (...)

I placed 4 orders with TRU when they had their Star Wars lego sets on sale. All of them took longer then I think it warranted to get here, and some of them just got here a couple days ago! I believe (IMHO) that they listed stuff as in-stock that (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Why should the vendor pay? Again, I don't think the credit card company exchanges money on a daily basis. I don't think they even bill the vendor on a daily basis. Also, the vendor is dealing with their local branch of the credit card company. (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I would be hesitant to make *any* online (or mail order for that matter) purchase if I was planning a move within the next month or two. I've ordered from TRU.com three times now and have had no problems other than slow delivery. Doug (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) My guess is the CC company will pay for it but the Entertainer *should*. They (credit card) may prefer it if you dispute the charge and refund. Doug (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) It seems to me they should eat it. In all probability, they paid nothing since they presumably don't exchange money on a daily basis. From what I know about credit card companies (from my mother working the phones for a credit card company), I (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Lucky you. I made an order almost 3 weeks ago. After it had been a week and I hadn't heard anything, I tried calling the TRU.com toll free number. Every time I called the number it kept disconnecting me. Once I got sick of that I emailed (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

To me it seems like a fair course of events (between the credit card and myself that is). One day they exchanged currency a for currency b. The next day they converted currency b back into currency a. It would have been better for me if the order (...) (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
