And there would have been no negative publicity.

However, hindsight is 20/20.
Which was my position in the last thread, and the one before. Amazon attempted to mitigate the liability for their own negligence by illegaly reneging on purchases made in good faith by their customers.

This student’s case is extreme as actual work was expended, however if I was in the middle of reading a novel and someone took it and destroyed it I’d be seriously P.O.ed!
