amusing invoice

Saving log - $3 tip box
Spending log - $.50 apple

I ordered a CD from CD Baby and this email invoice made me laugh out loud....

"Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

"A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure it was in the best possible condition before mailing.

"Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money can buy.

"We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in our private CD Baby jet on this day, Monday, April 6th.

"I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!

"Sigh..."

...Spending money for the invoice is not a great reason, but it is a pretty fun one. Smile Got the box today and I was a tad disappointed that it wasn't gold lined. In the invoice the company suggested that I call them up "just to vent if I had a rough day." Wonder if they'll take a rain check.

    I remember getting that invoice when I ordered something from them a few years ago. I think they also sent me a pretty amusing follow-up email a few weeks later to see if I liked my new CD. I haven't bought anything from them since, but I still remember getting that invoice!

    I think this companies message might be encouraging people to take advantage of their good customer service. I can only imagine some people just taking them up on their offer to really offer feedback and nit pick stuff to death. I bet their phone operators are hating that message that goes out to the customers.

    gamecock - CD baby seems to specialize in alternative music. I'd like to hope that they know their audience and gamble that the Venn diagram of nit-pickers vs altcounty-punk likers is tiny. Or it could be that this is all a joke and customer service is given the go-ahead to readily handle the hecklers. Big Grin
