Strange Wherehouse.com experience
OK... I probably should have started a thread on this the other day when this started, but here goes.
February 9th there was a deal at wherehouse.com where everything was 25% off for that day.
So I ordered "George Strait: 50 Number Ones" for the incredible deal of $8.24.
I received the 2 disc set on 2/13, and found out within the next 48 hours that disc 2 was defective.
I went into the customer service area of the website, and it says to email them with the problem, and they will send out a pre-paid postage label to mail the defective item back.
I received an email within 4 hours saying they were sorry my disc was defective and they were sending a replacement at no extra charge.
I received the replacement yesterday, and there was no label in the package to return the defective disc.
And this new set has two copies of disc 2 and no disc 1's!!!
I emailed them again last night, and told them what had happened, and they said I should just combine the one copy of disc 1, with one of the good disc 2's and discard the duplicate good disc 2, and the defective disc 2, I did not need to return anything...
Does this sound like normal procedure?
I don't want someone else to be emailing them complaining they ordered this same product and got two disc 1's.
Or have problems in the future ordering from them, because they think I'm a trouble maker...

postage free return label.
I doubt they will think you are problem
child. They are an excellent company for
returns & problems. I know its weird, but they
seem to take buyers word more than other
companies. Thankfully most people do
not take advantage of them. Anyways...
I have done a ton of business with them.
Just wish they would pack the product better

ive had good experiences with them as well.
I bought maybe 15 used cds at one point and two of them were wrong discs. One was completely a different band, and one was a single when i was expecting the album.
They sent out replacements and didn't ask for anything back. Worked out for my since the completely different band turned out to be good and something I never heard of before =]
Another time i ordered Tremors Attack Pack and one of the discs looked really warped. Same deal, they just sent a replacement. I wound up just giving the old copy away.
