susandennisDo merchants make you dig and dig and dig for the freakin' tracking number??????
Most of the folks I buy from send me a sweet little note saying my goodies have been shipped and here's the tracking number. Then Gmail goes one step further (if they folks didn't) and gives me a nice little link right to the tracking page.
But, once in a while I order from the clueless. I try not to but sometimes you don't know going in that they will be so thoughtless and mean. Their note that my goodies have been shipped includes a link to 'orders' where I have to log in. But that's not the end of it. I have to then go from the 'change your password' screen and hunt down something that will give me the tracking information. Finally, I find it in 'past orders' which is pretty well hidden. Once, there I have to click on my order number and from there I discover that the tracking number - not a link to the tracking page, mind you... oh no, I have to go find that myself.
Their email should say 'we have shipping your goodies... you can guess when you will see them or crawl over cut glass for the actual tracking number'.
ARUGH.
