So I viewing an order I placed a few days ago, and noticed both items had dropped in price. One, quanitity of ten, dropped by 20 cents a pop, and the other, quantity of two, dropped by $1.76 a pop.

Also, since one of those items I'd ordered twice before in seperate orders within the past 30 days, I was due for three refunds, totaling about $9.

So I call up, give the order numbers one by one, and as she's doing the refunds, after saying "done" for each one, I hit refresh on the order info page, and BAM, my refund information is there instantly.

Yeah, I know, this isn't really amazing, but I still think Amazon rocks. Much better than buy.com where the post office lost an item I ordered, and they [buy.com] don't even have a phone numebr, let alone an 800 one. I'll probably have to end up disputing that with my bank. Ugh.

Wow, don't spend that money you screwed them out of all in one place.

That's no big deal Matlock, pretty much every b&m store does price adjustments within 30 days. We got $110 off our 6.1 receiver at CC when they dropped the price after a week, plus they do the additional 10%.

$9 isn't bad for a two minute phone call, asshole.

That's pretty damn impressive, Shoplifter.

You can email them too....

I do this so much that I now use a template for it and just fill in the details

Hello,
I was browsing Amazon.com and noticed that an item I ordered only a few days back has dropped in price and was wondering if it was possible to receive the difference? The item in question is the __________________ which has dropped $xx.xx. My order number was xxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx.

Thank you,
xxxx xxxxxxx

Now THAT'S the type of phrasing they need to use in those 10-10-220 commercials.
