Nice surprise at work

[TheEngineer]

Tobin James spring mailer came in today. Nice list of stuff too.

05 Fatboy
05 French Camp
05 Syrah Silver Reserve
05 Cab Franc James Gang Reserve
05 Lagrein Silver Reserve
05 Petite Syrah Black Magic
06 Chardonnay James Gang Reserve
06 Late Harvest Zin Liquid Love

For the second time in a row, the Liquid Love never made it home.... a female colleague walked by and well...it followed along with the Chard.... Actually for me, looking forward to the PS.

Got mine Tuesday. Judy likes the napkin holder. Well, she likes the wine, too, but she'll have to wait awhile to enjoy them.

Mine arrived yesterday though it was due on Tuesday. We have tagged the Fatboy for '09, the PS for '12, and all the other reds for '10. The Chardonnay and Liquid Love went into rotation. Bev loved the napkin holder too.

For you non-TJ members, the napkin holders are made of heavy metal and painted TJ blue which goes perfectly in our kitchen.

Interestingly..I got mine too, but not just one box! I guess I need to call or email them because my budget wont allow multiple memberships, (although I have only seen one charge on my card). Anyone ever experience this? I wish I could afford to just keep them, but that wouldn't seem right. I wonder if they'll send me a return label or something to send them back. Seems an expensive mistake...Any advice? WP

I'm sure they will work you on the return. They have always been very helpful.

[TheEngineer]

hehe.....Loring is on its way too.....

Well it looks like I have resolved my extra packages issue. I first contacted TJ and was told my shipping label was accidentally reprinted 2 extra times with the same tracking number-they had no idea, I was only charged once. They said they would send UPS back to pick up the extras and to keep the Cab Franc from one extra case for my trouble. After further thought not knowing what cost was associated with the return, I contacted them again offering to buy one get one free on the extras. Since I see a charge showed up on my card for another club shipment I guess they accepted that offer. Great deal for me, (other than a little extra unplanned expenditure), kind of makes me feel like the "fatboy"! [img]http://wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] WP

The extra napkin holder will make a nice gift!

Sounds like a fair deal to me. All sides do well out of a situation! happy client for a small price.
