They did not do their best and they have acknowledged it and promised to correct it next year.Do I accept their apology? Of course I do! What do I gain by bashing a great small company serving a very intimate (sometimes maybe too intimate) clientele and are not trying to get rich on every transaction nor force you to buy something you don't want.
I will repeat last week's email: 1. Its always easier to run someone else's company 2. Don't sweat the small stuff, its all small stuff. I look forward to my email!
