For the record, I never saw this thread until just tonight!!!
For anyone who may be interested in the full story...
TRDSleeper ordered items that, unfortunately, were out of stock and on back-order. Unfortunately we had to wait a few weeks before we could ship his order out, and I hated the wait much more than any of you could imagine.
The full order was shipped out and I received a phone call from TRDSleeper stating that his packaged seemed to have been damaged by the USPS during delivery. He showed me the pics that he has posted here and we immediately sent him a replacement cap, AT OUR EXPENSE, no questions asked. At no point during our conversation did he say that he was angry, nor did he exhibit any of the bashing nature that he has shown here in this thread. I find all the bashing here very unprofessional and unnecessary...
I also find it sad that the full story was never told. I can understand the anger in having to wait for a back-order item to ship out, and I can also understand being upset at the USPS for damaging the package, but I can not appreciate the telling of only half the story and not bringing the story to a complete conclusion.
And yes, we ship M&Ms to all our customers.
Many thanks to those of you who posted the kind words on our behalf, I certainly do appreciate them!

^^ Makes sense to me, as well as it has to others here as you noticed. USPS & UPS are notorious for losing/damaging shipments. Makes me want to use FedEx that much more (but alas, they aren't infallible either).
But the one question does remain that he addresses is the length of time it took to respond or even notify the customer that his order was going to be backordered/delayed. This is one area where communication is key between the you and your customer. Better yet if they know BEFORE paying you for the order that they're going to have to wait a month before getting their product.

And yes, I think that TRDSleeper has learned from this as well. Perhaps Peanut M&Ms next time?
