The next call was Synchrony Bank. They identified the customer (US) as Good As Gold. No questions No investigations and No B.S. They asked one question. Mr. Nucky did you try to contact Amazon Directly. I answered yes but all that was available was a virtual assistant and I don't talk to computers. The story ends there. Mission Accomplished. Karma, a Beautiful thing.

Our next door neighbor scratched up 3 M95 not N95 masks and we left them on the porch of the people who could use a boost just about now. I have to check out the difference but I'm Masked out today.

So in the end analysis rules and policies with Vendors are NOTHING. I got my money back.

Congrats! As for the masks - might they be the KN95? Somewhat different, made in China, recalled in several states but still better than no mask or a tee-shirt mask (which has negligible use and is uncomfortable, as I can personally attest to)

Why does that concern you?

Not concerned, just curious. Maybe they know something that could help others.

Those of us who are right by the Golf Courses have dozens of unmasked CART DRIVERS WHIZZING PAST OUR YARDS EVERY DAY... SPREADING A HIDDEN VIRUS. You cannot say because you dont have the virus or tested negative last week that you are not carrying it this week. Stop being so SELFISH. If you dont have a mask then make one.... you dont have to sew, just a scarf or similar and 2 elastic bands...... go to you tube and watch the demo.. so simple

you have no idea what your are talking about -- maintain your 6 foot perimeter -- or just stay in your house == the masks made of cotton will make little or no difference -- it will not protect you from getting the virus unless it is an n-95 and as far as some one else who might be shedding the virus -- it they did sneeze a homemade mask would not stop the virus from escaping -- maybe 2 percent protection -- so keep wearing useless cotton on your face -- I will not

If you can't walk down the street because the air is filled with Covid-19 then we are in really deep trouble!
If you want to wear a mask at all times... then simply wear one.
Why can't we simply use common sense?

Are they made in China? Trust?
