Annals of Cybergifting




Dear Bloomingdalesregistry,

Once again, I want to confirm that the correct item was sent. I ordered a CONVECTION OVEN, not a toaster. When I telephoned the 888 number below after your previous "confirmation", I was assured that it was just a computer glitch and that, in fact, the order was being correctly processed. So why are you telling me AGAIN that a toaster is being sent? This is very unsettling.

Well, the wedding is this weekend and I'm looking forward to it. I better not hear anyone say "thanks for the toaster".

As an owner of a similar DeLonghi convection oven, I can verify that it is, in fact, a glorified six-slice toaster....
