The Art Of Honesty (and a plug for Amazon.Com).

A few days ago I purchased an MP3 album from Amazon.com. I have the “One Click” feature enabled and the download completed flawlessly, and even now I am listening to “Animal Logic II”. The band features uber musicians: former Police drummer (and personal favorite) Stewart Copeland and Stanley Clark on bass, and a fantastic vocalist by the name of Deborah Holland. This was a favorite CD that went missing a couple of years ago. I have looked far and wide for a replacement, but had never come across this album either in used record stores or various online stores…. until now. It popped up on Amazon, and I immediately bought it. A few minutes later, i got an e-mail saying that my credit card did not go through and my order was being canceled (the card number had change and I forgot to update my Amazon account). Problem is, I had already received the digital merchandise. Many would have walked away with the “free” unpaid for music, but not me; I want to pay for the goods delivered. I just got off the phone with an Amazon.com associate (someone in India who I could barely understand) and cleared up the payment issue. Cool thing is that they went ahead and waived the charge, and I got the music for free anyway. I think they were shocked that someone would call in and try to correct this. Regardless, thank you Amazon.com. Will be shopping with you in the future.

PS. Speaking of Amazon.Com, my Birthday is tomorrow. I wonder what I will get for myself? ^_^
