I thought that returning them would be a pain, but the Amazon.com process was simple; the receipt in the box the jeans came in included a link to return information.  I printed out a scannable code, re-packaged the jeans and a UPS person was at my door to pick it up at 10AM the next day.  Simple and easy.<\/p>\n<p>However, I was worried once again when a mysterious $80.00 &#8220;Amazon Prime&#8221; purchase showed up on my Credit Card&#8230; turns out I had at one point signed up for a trial of a 2-day delivery service (&#8220;Amazon Prime&#8221;), and didn&#8217;t know that if I did not cancel my membership before the trial was over, they would automatically enroll me in the program and charge my card.  I was so frustrated that I hadn&#8217;t seen that in the fine print, and upset that I had no notification of signing up.  I e-mailed Amazon.com and explained my frustration and what was going on.  They e-mailed me back within FIVE minutes, apologized for not being clear in how Amazon Prime works, and explained that a full refund would be issued to me within 2-3 business days.  I was totally surprised with how well they treated me. <\/p>\n<p>An actual PERSON e-mailed me, it was not automated, and they made sure that I was completely taken care of, even though it was my mistake.  I will definitely be telling everyone to purchase from Amazon.com because of their exemplary customer service.  Bravo, Amazon.com!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> Mission accomplished, Danielle.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reader Danielle has written in absolutely shocked that a basic return\/exchange went smoothly.
