What are the rules...

you're the one that started complaining when you couldn't get the 58% discount instead of the 40% discount.
Sorry, what...??
Where did I complain...??
There are several parts you've missed... Please read it again...!As the subject of this thread says, I asked "What are the rules..."
Can't see that being a complain...@frederik said:
They even had a great offer because of the approaching Holiday season - 40% discount - which certainly is a great offer...
...and further down in the first post I wrote...
I can't say that I'm disappointed, cause the Holidays offer is a really nice offer - no doubt...
However, after some more thinking, I asked a friend of mine who deals with legal stuff and he told me that if this had been in Europe, I would be able to claim the additional 30% discount...
Unfortunately he wasn't sure if the same rules apply in the US......or should I just leave it and be happy with the 40% and complete the order by the end of December...?!?
@david. said:
The fact is that you haven't provided all the context. You presented your side, carefully worded to favor your assumption.
What...???
@frederik said:
Nevertheless, I think I will just leave it and stay happy with the discount I already got...
I don't want to be greedy, but if I was entitled to an additional discount, hey, why shouldn't I go for it...
@david. said:
Why should you "expose" the company? Why should you give the full email? Give me a break.
I still can't see why I should expose the company and although you might see tons of reasons, I'm not going to, cause this isn't about the company itself, but about what people in general are entitled to...!
However, to satisfy your second request, I've now attached a screen-dump of the email...
Yes - I've blurred out the parts, where the company name is exposed...Happy now...?!?
@david. said:
If someone disagrees with you and asks for more context it's "interfering". That shows the weakness of your position.
Jesus... Please go get a prozac or something...

I can see where that would appear misleading, since it refers to the previous order which already had a discount, and resuming that order. However, it doesn't say an "additional" 30% off.

And we are talking about America where people need to be told that coffee is hot and may cause severe burns if used for tea bagging.

it says 30% off your order... if your order was to be a certain amount, which most people watch closely.... Why would you not think it was going to be 30% off that order amount? especially for a non-tangible product like software, that is never out of stock?

Frederik, I think you should get Jeff Hammond to do the negotiating for you.
By now, you'd have got it for free and probably a free coffee to go with it...!!

it's called "charm".. not "negotiating"

it's not necessarily that we need to be told it's hot.. it's that we'll sue you if you don't tell us..
i mean, we're lame but it's a different kind of lame than "i didn't know coffee was hot" lame.

True, Daniel...
Nevertheless I still feel it's misleading...I already got a 40% discount, why would they subsequently send an offer with a lower discount - an offer which is inferior to the original - unless it indirectly indicates that there is an additional discount...?

My point exactly...
