Did an online chat last week, said it wasn’t delivered, got told it was (!?), and to go look around the house, ask neighbors, etc. Ummm, okay. No joy.
USPS tracking number as-given was 1 digit short. Tried it as-is, nope. Added 0-9 at the end to try 10 more possibilities, all no status. (Began with “93…” so would be a valid/usual number on the front end.)
Emphasis that I was told in the chat that it was delivered, even after C&Ping the resulting link to track the as-given number.
Still waited a while, Just In Case it might show, and still nothing, so did another online chat. Yep, delivered, want a refund? Nope, would rather have the meter, as it was at a really good sale price that I doubt I’d ever see again. Mmmyeah, sorry, can’t do anything about that… want a refund? Fooey, but yeah, go’head.
First part of the chat, verified that it was delivered like last Thursday or whenever. Okay, but can you verify the address it was sent do? Here, we got number-streets, that can be Street, Road, Lane, Avenue, Crescent, etc., and we pretty much got all of ’em in the nabe for the same street number.
“It wasn’t delivered. I can confirm.”
Wait… what? First chat, and earlier in this one, it was “verified” as delivered, and now you can see that it wasn’t? Sorry, but I’m confused.
Tactfully ignored/sidestepped, and I didn’t push it.
Oh, and I asked my usual mailman mailwoman if she possibly remembers what should be a rather largish box/envelope that came a few days ago (asked last week), and nope, doesn’t jingle any bells.
So, got my whopping refund last night, and no meter.
Well, at least I’m not being offered 10-20 useless “points” to my amazon “wallet” that I could never use, so there’s that.
The instructions are not kidding, the batteries in the charger really do get hot while charging. In fact, they
got so hot, I was barely able to touch them when removing them. I think I’ll hold onto the batteries, but only use
the charger when supervised.
I just logged into my Amazon account and saw that the price on the IF25A has dropped to $35.69 with free prime shipping. This is available with the 21700 battery included and 4000k and 6500k models. It also shows in stock .
UPS just delivered my two each $3.19 extension cords. Not USPS butt rather UPS ground. That had to cost as much or more than I paid for them. Very nice for thrice the price. Better than me hunting down an adapter to fit my three prong device into my two hole extension cord. I use indoor cords for outdoor Xmas decorations every year and not been ’cuted yet, shivered a time er two tho. CLEAR!
