Received a box stuffed with packing paper
Permalink  
 

Spouse frequently leaves her cane in whatever room she was in last,

or second-last.

So I ordered another one from Amazon.

When I opened the box, I found ...

it was over stuffed with packing paper.

No cane.

The closest reason I found on their "reason for return list" is

"missing parts or accessories.

 

I will ship back what I received if they want me to.

I had that happen once. Amazon was great and sent the items without any question.

Wouldnt it be great to get a box stuffed with something useful?

Like maybe $100 dollar bills?

Just call them and tell them. They will send another. No need to send the box back.

 I don't care for Lexus.

How about a Ford Escape hybrid instead?

 Is a walk-in tub an option for the Escape?

I've heard there are a couple of issues with walk-in tubs.

(1) Once you are in it, you have to wait while it fills up. And

(2) Once you are done, you have to wait (shivering?) while it drains completely

before you can open the door.

No. Just the tub.

The new ones have a drain system that will drain a full tub in 2 minutes.

Well, if you're gambling with my $100 bills, and this is what you want,

I approve. (Not that you need my approval, but still )

 Buy the car.

I just shipped Amazon's box fill of packing paper back to them, at their expense.

 To be fair, it was bulging and difficult to close with just the paper in it.

There was no room for the cane I ordered. cry
