Okay, I follow. But what is the purpose of having another order history page on the Mediocre site? I still think I deserve free shipping for life for you guys confusing me. Sheesh.
@eyewerks All the freebies and special sales that they do for vmp members show up over there. I'm not sure why, but I assume it has to do with finance stuff and they need/want things that are going to be a loss for them to come out of Mediocre's budget and not Meh. Just speculation on my part though.
@eyewerks No...I figured it was maybe coming out of an advertising or retention budget or something. Or maybe they didn't want those numbers messing up their sales numbers. I really don't know but I wasn't thinking of anything nefarious, just that is was for reasons.
@PurplePawprints it's because being a VMP means you're VMP on every Mediocre site, not just Meh. The benefit for VMP on Meh is free shipping for a month but you could be VMP and never even go to Meh.com, and we'd still want you to get your Mediocre socks.
@eyewerks You're welcome. No problem at all. I find it's better when people understand what's going on around here instead of leaving and thinking Meh has their head's up their asses or something.
@shawn thanks, Shawn, but I was a super dupper dum dum last night and already bought a set of the low lumen output thig-a-ma-jigs. How about extending the free VMP? :D
@shawn Of Course. You didn't have to give me anything. That said, it's too bad this discussion didn't take place on a Friday when you'd be trying to unload those JBL speaker docks for iPads. ;)
@eyewerks nope, now you're getting a 3rd set of low lumen output thig-a-ma-jigs because you keep bugging me about free VMP. Don't make me send you a 4th.
@shawn Hey, can I trade in 4 of the low lumen output thingies for 4 months of free VMP? It would be a smart move on your part and Meh's, as I'd probably buy a lot of crap from you during that time. Look at it this way... I get 4 lanterns and no incentive to buy, OR, ...I get 4 months of VMP, and you take my money a few times a week. Ponder that, grasshopper.
Your mediocre.com orders are at https://mediocre.com/orders
Your meh.com orders are at https://meh.com/orders
@shawn yes, I know where they were supposed to be. They weren't there for a while, but socks were.
@shawn hoo boy! Please don't treat me like a dum dum. I outlined the system glitch in the post below. I am not imagining things.
@eyewerks I didn't realize there were actually 2 different sites. I guess I am a dum dum. :(
Okay. That's odd.
After cancelling VMP the only "order" I saw was socks.
I had never seen the sock "order" before.
I just checked my order history again and my orders seem to be restored. Although the sock order is missing.
Curious.
If I ran a company and someone brought a glitch like that to my attention, I would give them free shipping (VMP) for life.
Just saying.
@eyewerks The sock order is at the mediocre site and your other orders are here at Meh. This is not a glitch and is exactly what was explained above.
@eyewerks Vmp stuff takes you to the mediocre site, by the way.

@eyewerks because it was all a clever ruse months in the working and you fell for it
@Lotsofgoats I did. :( I am going to have to put on my dunce hat and sit in the corner.
@PurplePawprints so, you think maybe they're tax evaders?
@eyewerks No...I figured it was maybe coming out of an advertising or retention budget or something. Or maybe they didn't want those numbers messing up their sales numbers. I really don't know but I wasn't thinking of anything nefarious, just that is was for reasons.

@JonT That makes perfect sense. Thanks for the clearer explanation.
I didn't know there were special sales for VMP members.
And Purple, you are very nice to explain this all to me. Thank you.
@eyewerks You're welcome. No problem at all. I find it's better when people understand what's going on around here instead of leaving and thinking Meh has their head's up their asses or something.
The self deprecation in this topic amused me.
We have 2 sites (mediocre.com and meh.com).
Coincidentally we're currently selling 2-for-Tuesday: Eveready Compact LED Area Lights on meh.com which I've gifted you, @eyewerks. You'll see your free order on your orders page at https://meh.com/orders (not https://mediocre.com/orders)
We cool?

@shawn Hey, is this some sort of trick or something? Now that I don't have VMP anymore am I gonna get charged shipping??
@shawn Hey, can I trade in 4 of the low lumen output thingies for 4 months of free VMP? It would be a smart move on your part and Meh's, as I'd probably buy a lot of crap from you during that time.

@shawn Surely that JonT guy would see my logic. It's a good BUSINESS move on your part.
@shawn by the way, thank you for the kind gesture(s).
@shawn My god! Had a waited just a little longer I might have scored a free mixer. Crap!
@eyewerks what the hell are you going to do with 6 of those LED lights? you have to report back here and let us know where they end up.
@eyewerks
@shawn I think maybe I'll make repeated use of the 90 day Meh warranty. Or... You could give me free VMP instead.
@JonT I had no idea that you were a yappy black woman.
