How Express almost runied my Dinner Reception.... Express.com sucks

I just saved myself over $500!
Express.com Sucks!

Wow! What a freaking headache!

I made 2 purchases from express.com.  The 1st order (placed on 9/22) went fine w/o any headaches.  The 2nd order (placed on 9/26) was huge a headache...........

The 2nd order I placed was the wrong size so I immediately called customer service to make the corrections. This call was made within 5 minutes after placing the order. No big deal right?

Wrong!  She too entered the wrong size and decided to ship it out.  Noting that the 2nd order was needed by Saturday Oct 1st, 2011.

I had the 2nd order shipped 2nd day air.  After realizing the wrong size, I contacted Express and once again, re-ordered the item in the correct size.

2 hours later, I received an email stating that they put a STOP SHIPMENT on the 2nd order (the shipment with the several items, 1 being the wrong size). WTH?

The 3rd order I made was only for 1 item.  The 2nd shipment had several items so why did the put a stop shipment on it?

Since the 2nd order had multiple items.  I had to re-order it.  And the thing is, the lady I spoke with wanted to charge me for the new order and then credit me when they receive the 2nd order. 

This after speaking with another rep stating that all I had to do was take what I needed from the 2nd order and return the wrong item.  So why did they put a stop shipment?

Long story short, I cancelled the 2nd order and contacted FedEx to issue an RTS on the first order.

They could have made things right.  But instead, I had 1 week of headaches trying to sort this shit out with them.

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

I'm glad that's over.  Hopefully, they won't fuck up on the credits that are owed to me.

So instead of wearing what I wanted to, I will be wearing an old outfit. Oh wells.

Ok, the lesson here is, when buying something for an important occasion or special event, head over to the store!

Amazon Sucks! - Amazon has officially lost my business

First they closed my affiliates account because I resided in CA and Amazon refuses to pay taxes.

Then they closed my seller's account because supposedly, the have evidence that my account was linked to another account which was closed do to reasons they don't want to get into details.

I'm not sure what the reason is but I did have one sale that I was about 2 weeks late on because I forgot to check my email and didn't realize I had sold an item.

Once I saw that email, I shipped the items that very same day and sent the buyer an email apologizing. Since she didn't cancel the order and has since received the item, I'm not sure why Amazon is all bent out of shape.

They are withholding my funds, both from my affiliates and sellers account and I'm not worried about it. The amount is a whopping $25!

But since Amazon is being such a whiny bitch, I decided take my business elsewhere. I spend a good amount of money at Amazon (several hundred a month) and they just lost a customer over $25. They can keep it.

I'll take my business elsewhere. I was looking to purchase an unlocked phone and Amazon was my 1st choice. But after this incident, I'll take my business elsewhere. Amazon isn't the only place selling unlocked phones!

And this wasn't the first time I had issues. I also ran into problem with their other store Audible.com. Long story short, my CC company decided in my favor.
