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 was just cancelled by the Entertainer but instead
my order was processed, completing the exchange (which to me means to me I
should be getting the sets but that is another thread :-) ) and then the
charge was refunded at a later date.
It is possible the credit card company would eat the cost, but I doubt it. I
will give them a call and see what happens.

| (...) 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)
