And Amazon have found yet another way to p*ss me off.

This should be self explanatory. This is a comment I have made on the Amazon site, when asked for feedback:

"I searched for bedfan on google and it said that Amazon.co.uk had this in stock, so I clicked the Amazon link, your own link, and you say that "bedfan" doesn't match anything you have. That's pretty rubbish, why waste my time on your links when you don't even stock it, it is annoying and frustrating. You don't even stock anything similar and it is precisely this kind of thing that makes me look elsewhere. I will dedicate a blog to this, it is an inconsequential thing and that makes it all the more painful, it is an uneducated and clumsy attempt to have me buy something else yet you have nothing even remotely similar, so what have you achieved? You've annoyed me."

The Internet is a repository for all comments, a good online presence and a good reputation is essential. Amazon are usually excellent (apart from the fact they don't pay their way in tax) but this bit is a blemish, something annoying that will simply bug me, nothing serious, just a niggle really, like an itch on the sole of your foot and for that reason I feel compelled to write about it. Funnily enough, if it had been more serious I probably wouldn't have bothered.

By the way, that Ryley Walker album? Simply excellent, go and buy it but not from Amazon...
