AG: Melody!

*eyes clock* Yeah, I suspect this won't actually go up til Sunday. Still, maybe if I do a little work now, it'll be easier then. In any case, let's finally (FINALLY) give Melody some love.



Melody, man. Melody.

( Sorry, Melody, for being such a slacker. )

And it's taken me so long to post this that the sale bundles are about to expire but what the heck. Let's include them anyway.
( Bundle Savings Good Through August 29, 2016 )

Man, I kept you guys waiting on this and it's not even my best work. Shame, self. SHAME.

I think part of the problem is that while I like Melody a lot (character and doll), I'm at that point where I've got a crapton of stuff and I'm being extra choosy about what I add to the madness. Also, I'm not rolling in dough or space and that kinda cuts out a lot of Melody's stuff. Couple that with my lack of interest in her musical accessories (though I find them quite nifty!) and you've got a collection I'm mostly content to look at in other people's photos. Which is great for my wallet, but not good for Melody.
Still, there are some things I want enough to buy and will the moment I have the funds and a proper sale.
Wish list:
Melody (and her Meet Accessories)
Pajamas
Christmas Dress
Birthday Coat

To make up for sucking, let's look at some pretty Pinterest shots, shall we?
( Catalog shots, I suspect. )

What am I supposed to do with this?

Adventures in shopping! That's a thing, right? It should be, anyway. So last... Monday? Tuesday? Whenever, I ordered my fun Halloween stuff and summer marshmallow goodness from BBW, yes?
And got my shipping notice on the 24th and the box was scheduled for arrival on the 26th. There was indeed a box on my porch at dinner on Friday, but Mom said that it made a weird clinking sound and we both worried that my shinies were broken.
Nothing was broken but also nothing was mine. They'd sent me someone else's order, complete with their invoice. o_O
I immediately emailed BBW and asked wtf, man.

Saturday morning was the Yankee Halloween release party and I did a little damage there. Since I was paying with Paypal and Yankee was notorious last year for accepting orders and then canceling parts of them, I thought I'd check to make sure things looked okay so far. Imagine my surprise when I see a refund from BBW (two, actually, but in different amounts) on the 25th. Uh...
I get an email last night with this:

I am so sorry that you have not received your order. We apologize for this inconvenience.
I have issued a credit for this order of $28.07 back to your PayPal account on 8/27. Please allow 1 to 2 billing cycles for this credit to appear on your statements.

If you decide to replace this order, please contact us and we will be more than happy to take care of you and honor the sale price that you had on that day.

Which is weird enough because why would I rather have my money back instead of just getting my stuff actually sent? My email to them actually said I very much wanted my order, in fact so... nothing about that says refund. It says send the items again.

Sigh.

So today's got a free shipping code if you hit $50, which I can totally do no real problem. It's just figuring out that last bit to push me over since there are so many things I want but what do I want most.

But the real question is... what, exactly, am I supposed to do with the other person's stuff?
