Ok, my modem at home recently stopped working. So I call up DeathStar to order another one. I purposefully pay an extra $11 for "one day" shipping.
It was supposed to arrive Wednesday by 4 PM.
I get home from work at around 5:45...no modem.
So I call up DeathStar, and it basically takes them 20 minutes or so (because the girl I was talking to was going back and forth, via IM I assume, with the people who handle orders), to tell me that a BigBrownTruck shipping label had been created...but they have no idea when the package will arrive. DeathStar said it was a "glitch" in their system.
So, I'm thinking since the glitch was on their end, and the modem didn't arrive when they said it would (and that's not the fault of BigBrownTruck), I should at least ask for the shipping charges to be removed.
Should I also ask for a day or two worth of credit? I know it'll only be a couple of dollars worth of credit, and I'm cool with that.
So basically shipping + 2 days is basically $13.
So how should I handle this without being an SC? I'm thinking they should at least refund (or credit) my shipping charges.
