Re: Problems regarding a CD vendor



Hello Richard,

I understand your relutance, and agree with it. Allan wasn't helping
me much, he said something like "it's your problem". I emailed him a
really angry message and then he decided to be reasonable. :)

I already contacted the mail company, and that's the problem. Their
answer was confusing and didn't say anything objective about my
problem, so I also sent them an angry message today. I complained
about Allan because, according to my experiences, I have much more
reasons to trust the mail company than him. I can't see who would be
interested in stealing 14 Debian cds, as almost nobody here knows what
Debian is at all... And also, Allan charged $50 + mail tax, and the
cost of the cds here in brazil is $14. Nice profit, I think...

Well, if I get any important news I tell you. Thanks for the attention.

Cyrano

Hello Cyrano,

I've taken note of your complaint. How come the mail company doesn't know
anything about the tracking ID - does it maybe expire after a few days?
Have you already tried filing a report with them to have them look more
thoroughly for the lost package?

What is Allan's reaction to this? I've CCed him with this mail.

We usually remove shops from the list if problems continue to be reported
by customers. However, I'm reluctant to do so based on a single complaint
only.

Cheers,

  Richard
