Does this make any sense Amazon?!?

I tried to buy some winter wiper blades on Amazon.com this morning, but they wouldn’t let me.  No, really, I tried and I tried, but they just won’t sell me the second wiper blade!!

I guess there are some products that are classified as “Add-on items”?  Apparently, even though one wiper blade from the product page can be bought as usual with Amazon Prime, etc., another wiper blade on the same product page is classified as an “Add-on item” and can only be purchased once I spend $25 or more on an order.

 

They don’t even give me the opportunity to simply pay the shipping costs and bypass this stupid “Add-on item” policy.  Not very helpful Amazon!!

WEB.COM deletes incoming emails without reading them

We already know that Domains@WEB.COM has a spam filter on a mailbox that is intended to be used to report spam, phishing, malware, and other abuses that may be occurring on their networks and servers.  Kind of makes the Domains@WEB.COM email address worthless!?

It turns out that even when we think the mail just might get through, it doesn’t.  I just received this bounce message indicating “Your message … was deleted without being read.”:

Nice job WEB.COM!!!
