Customer Service… or not?

Just a moment ago:
[6:16]  Lance Corrimal: [6:14] [ hoorenbeek ] SL Exchange Magic Box 02 owned by Limer Fredriksson gave you ‘[ hoorenbeek ] Patagonia Boots – Black Leather’ ( http://slurl.com/secondlife/JT%20World%20VI/63/141/321 ).
[6:14] Xstreet SL Central Authority: LapisLazuli Tomorrow has given you a gift of “Mens Boots Timberland like – Black Leather” from XstreetSL.com!

…or in other words, that stupid boot has a completely different name on xstreetSL than it has in the in-world shop, and in my inv. So now i have it twice. Doesn’t really help much, especially since the shoes are copyabe anyways.

So, I’m trying to talk to the owner of the shop.
After telling him what happened…

“[6:25]  Ansor Hoorenbeek: ok, but she bought the black leather boots and you receive the black leather boots
[6:25]  Lance Corrimal: yep
[6:26]  Lance Corrimal: you could at least name the stuff in slx with the actual item names
[6:27]  Lance Corrimal: so that ppl dont buy stuff more than once.”

… now he stopped talking at all.

great attitude.

how about putting up the very same shoe on SLX under ten different names, just with the picture matching the item… and people might buy ten copies of the same shoe and it’d be “perfectly ok” since they got what the picture was showing.

This sounds kind of scary…

…something that I’ve heard on the radio yesterday. Some guy was talking about the latest fashions for the coming winter season, describing the latest ideas of several designers thusly:
“First it looks horrible, but after a while you start getting used to it and you actually start to like it…”

I dunno, a “fashion trend” that can best be described like that is pretty much dead on arrival.
Lets hope that trend stays out of SL.
