  • Wrapping up

    A final note on the wonder that is Powell’s customer service.

    Nick wrote this in a comment on my last Powell’s post, and I reprint it here so you can all appreciate it and go forth and purchase books from Powell’s.

    Powell’s has indeed:

    Replaced the lost books that they could find another copy of, including one case of replacing a used copy I had paid $8 for with a new ($50) copy;

    Issued an immediate refund for those lost books they could not find replacement copies of;

    And gave us a gift certificate to apologize for our troubles.

    I think they might, you know, be a class act or something.

    Yay Powells, and yay Serra Toney.
