Name Jet Forgives MyTypo Bid Error

[radioz]

I just thought taht I would say something good about a drop catcher and apologize to anyone who might have been involved with an auction that I accidentally F****d up.

I was (too) casually upping my bid for ShortCircuits.COM to $171. Unfortunately, my fat finger managed to enter $1721. I quickly hit the drop box button that came up about the time my mind engaged. I then won the auction for $521. I wrote to Name Jet and they refunded my money something that I wasn't sure would happen. I do appreciate their forgiveness and am not sure that all drop catchers would have done this.

Please DON'T do this intentionally! I assure you that I didn't. If you were bidding on ShortCircuits.COM, it will be up again (no conspiracy here) and I ask your forgiveness too!

Jon :uhoh:

I had a similar situation with another provider as well. I was bidding a name up to 120 and typed in 1200 instead. When i returned home later i saw that i won the auction for 1050. I called them up panicking because this was a few years ago when I was broke and it would have ruined me! The woman was very helpful and managed to refund my money. There were other interested parties as well and I am pretty sure they sold it for a comporable amount.

Namejet is a great standup company, I can tell you from personal experience they are very willing to help their customers. I give them 5 stars.

You can also get refunds for ice cream cones after you eat them, as long as you claim you mistook the flavor.

The other day I was at the Burger King drive through, and asked for a large water (for my wife) and a medium root beer, and when I came to the window, she had filled a large root beer and a medium water. I told her it was wrong, but I think she still misunderstood, but charged me only for a medium root beer, and giving me the large one "cause she would have to throw it away" and then still gave me the medium water instead of the large. We did not bother to try to talk to her about it.

That's the beauty of a consumer-driven society
