    Re: Fort Legoredo is not available after all! (Was: Re: 50% off at Amazon.com) —Troy Cefaratti
   I have a feeling that I too will soon be getting such a letter. I can't say that I am happy with the way Amazon has handled my order, again! (They haven't gotten one right yet) I placed one order for 20 Legoredos. Over the weekend they proceed to (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

     (...) Ordered 10 saturday morning. 7 shipped that day, the other 3 were held back because the bank declined after that. However, I got notice of the final 3 shipping monday morning and received all 10 tuesday. (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

   That's just it, the item is NOT so big it needs to be shipped individually. They could have use a decent sized box and gotten atleast 5 sets in it. I've gotten such sized boxes from Amazon before. And even if they didn't, they are obviously shipping (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

     (...) True. Good advice! It's what I do when I order large orders from overseas (non US) suppliers and it saves a lot of hassle. However I do not consider any order from Amazon (a US supplier selling and shipping to a US address) that is under 1000 (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
   
        Re: Fort Legoredo is not available after all! (Was: Re: 50% off at Amazon.com) —Troy Cefaratti
   True, and good advice. I just wasn't expecting this to be a problem. I thought it was a fairly simple order, I had no idea they would charge each item separately. In the past I have placed multiple orders, so in those cases I would have expected (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
