OneToThirtySix Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 So I bought three MP3 albums from amazon.com yesterday, downloaded them, listened while nodding, etc. Today I check my email, and it says that payment for one of the albums did not go through, and that the order has been canceled, but my bank has only had the total of one of the albums withdrawn, and not the other two. My amazon.com order history only has record of one album being ordered, and that was the one that was canceled. So now I have three mp3 albums, one of which amazon says I haven't paid for (when I have, according to my bank), and two that amazon says I never ordered, but I now have in possession. Does anyone know how this might have happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneToThirtySix Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Never mind, I figured it out: I ordered two of the albums together, and I forgot about sales tax, and didn't have enough in the account, so amazon canceled both album orders together, but withdrew the amount for the one album that was ordered separately. But I'm still confused about how I got to download them all anyway . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneToThirtySix Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 But here's the kicker: One of the albums downloaded with this click/crunch noise at the beginning of every track, so I'm downloading it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JohnTqs Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 so you got two albums you didn't pay for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneToThirtySix Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 so you got two albums you didn't pay for? Yeah. I think because a) it was Sunday, and my bank isn't open Sunday and b) I ordered all the albums in rapid succession, I was able to download them before the order was canceled. But if people can do this on a regular basis, what's the difference between peer-to-peer and amazon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JohnTqs Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 because on amazon you pay, what happened to you was a mess-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneToThirtySix Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 because on amazon you pay, what happened to you was a mess-up. Mess-ups shouldn't happen like this, though, especially if people are (or aren't) paying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneToThirtySix Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Well, actually purchasing and re-downloading Vignetting the Compost didn't change anything; both copies of the album have a click/crunch right at the beginning of every track . . .
