Mail man has been filling my mailbox with catalogs...some I get all the time....some just in the holiday season.
Day before yesterday.....got a catalog (won't mention the name)....from a ladies clothing company that the DW really likes.
She goes thru and marks some stuff....so I fired up the laptop and looked the first item up...
Found it, but when you clicked on size...said XS and S only on the web page...catalog list all sizes and body types....(it's a secret code?)
So I called the phone-in ordering place...kept waiting for about 5 min....Not bad.....
Ask the lady if there was something a matter with the web site.....
She looks it up and says no....that all that left?...I Just got the catalog!
Now she ask if there was anything else....so rattled off another item number.....aannnntt... wrong answer...didn't have that one either.
Then she says "next item"....I just thanked her and hung up....
DW says "What's up, they didn't have any of that stuff?...Told her I would look for the other stuff she marked...
Found three other items and went to checkout.
Now the real fun starts...
"If you are a returning customer enter username and password."...
Entered user name/email....password did not auto load....so tried to enter what I thought it might be....aannnntt,.. wrong answer.......
So tried another....aannnntt.. wrong answer.....
Figured I would just make the purchase as a guest.....aannnntt ...wrong answer...there is an account associated with this email....
"Forgot your password...click here an one will be emailed to you "....
WTH.. I trying to spend some money.???
Went thru that and got purchase done, (that did go smooth either)....total time 1 hour, plus that phone call.....
THen the asked if I wanted to fill out their survey....Said sure...
Under comments I wrote "Have someone get a hold of eBay and Amazon I can check out with 2 clicks!
Now the worst part.....
The item I wanted to order that was only in XS and S....is on the pop-up ads, on a forum's advertising....flashing and mocking me....and it's now ON SALE! .....LOL.
And they wonder why Amazon and a few others are growing...while they go down the tubes.
Rant off
