Listen to that little voice (in the back of your brain)!
热度 4 虞左俊 2015-1-9 02:53

怪谁? Blame yourself (first)!

I hate Amazon.com!

It says N business days (for shipping) when you order it online. Then, they send you an email to tell you it would take M (N) days for them to even get ready to ship the order! At least that is the case for free shipping. So, you want it sooner? No problem, as long as you are willing to pay for ...

Being happy is a choice
热度 1 虞左俊 2013-12-26 18:05
