Rockler's customer service done right by me

I posted earlier about the 2 pairs of Rockler Shop safety glasses that
failed miserably. (The hinges on the left ear paddle broke apart, seemingly
without cause).

I e-mailed the support address at Rockler, explained the occurrences, and
requested replacemetn/refund, or at least the info for returning the
defective glasses.

The reply: "I am sorry to hear of this happening. I have arranged for
replacements
to be sent. We will not need the defective glasses returned."

Once the replacements arrive, we're square and I'm a happy camper/wrecker.

So are they sending a different brand or style? IIRC both of yours broke
rather quickly. Maybe a refund would be better than another 2 pair that may
break just as quickly.

I once had a motorcycle cover made by dowco that was on a motorcycle that
was stored outdoors. In one year it developed a big rip when I was putting
it on. I don't think it was meant to be outside. Nevertheless I bought a new
cover and sure enough it ripped after a few months. I called up dowco and
said I had two ripped covers. No questions asked they gave me an RMA number
to return the covers. In a short time I got two BRAND NEW, not refurbished
or used covers.

I know this has nothing to do with woodworking but I tend to stick with
companies if their customer service is good and they fix what's broke
without hassling me.
