Warning Amazon don't buy extra book by mistake!

Mu own fault of course, :mad: but what an annoying system at Amazon. They tempt you with books of interest and you put it on your list forgetting it is already on there! Result you end up with 2 unless you check the order closely! What a waste of time, how many people buy 2 books of the same type deliberately? They must realise this happens all the time.

I suppose the only solution is to resell it on Amazon for a lower price, wondered why there is such a hefty market in second hand books?

Actually they have a returns policy although they state the package should be unopened, hardly the case when buying books in bulk then discovering I had got two when looking on my bookshelf, Doooooh!

I ordered two identical cds the other week within minutes of each other & it wouldn't let me cancel even right away. I sent it back & got a full refund inc postage but paid 81p to send it. I think I clicked the one click button which I never use because one came first class and the other free postage, although they are arrived together.
