Settled down?! This woman obviously needed more than most people just to grow up! I'm glad you finally got your things, though, Sandy!

Oh my!

Has anyone ever used amazon.com? I just ordered the My So-Called Life DVDs for $65 (they're selling for upwards of $200 on eBay because they were discontinued). They're from a company called caiman.com, and the invoice stated that they would be shipped in 2 business days and would be at my house within 2 weeks. It's been a week, and I emailed them saying they hadn't been shipped, and I got a form email back saying "We are trying to locate this item." Should I be worried? I've never used amazon.com, but I had heard it was great so I trusted it.

Amazon's good, it's pretty easy to get a refund through them if the seller screws you. I think they're more fair than ebay to both the buyer and seller. As a buyer, I had a book that never came (a textbook)- the seller was good about trying to figure it out and issued me a refund, but I had looked up everything and knew that I would've been able to get a refund through Amazon (since you pay through them!). And as a seller, someone tried to say that I never sent their book... but they didn't contact me or Amazon until about 2 months after the sale! Amazon said sorry, buddy,but you waited to freakin long.
