Vesalia's thoughtful refund

[Failure]

Well I ordered some stuff from Vesalia a while ago, and it finally came in (held up by backordered Kickflash).  On the CD case for Foundation Gold there was taped two coins, and I couldn't figure out what the hell they were on there for.  Then I noticed I had only 2 custom chips instead of the three I ordered.  The invoice had the 3 euro part scratched off, but I sat there fuming that they hadn't given me a refund...

The coins are 1 euro and 2 euro coins.

Once I realized that I actually laughed.  Technically I suppose they have refunded my money, but here in Nowhere, GA what am I gonna do with 3 euro :-)

I'd like to walk into NAPA, buy two quarts of oil and slap those coins on the counter.  I bet the weird look would be worth 3 euro...

Yes, lucky me...I will just hold onto this until it's worth one...BILLION dollars!

Last time I was in Europe (Germany, even) they weren't doing this unified currency business, so this is actually the first time I've ever laid my hands on the stuff.  Biggest coin I'm used to is $0.25 so I at first assumed the coins I'd received were a fraction of a euro.

Hmm, just feel I should say I wasn't upset receiving 3 euro in change...just thought it was funny :-)

And FWIW, my emails were always responded to promptly.  I would order from them again.  I saved a lot of money ordering from Vesalia vs Software Hut, although certainly with SoftHut I would have received the items faster -- none of these was anything I was in a hurry for.

Important thing to me is getting responses via email, I do not have long distance service and I think it is stupid to have contact info on the internet and not respond to it.  That is why I order from Vesalia and Software Hut and not from Mr. Hardware with their black hole sales@ address.
