Ebay

I am wondering what will happen to people who are selling this on Ebay. I gave away lot of these cheese already.....may be this weekend I'll be knocking at thier homes and ask for my cheese.

...may be I should give them all the certs instead.

I have about 130 cheese wheels that I have not even opened. I have bought them in last 2 days. As a matter of fact about 40 of them this morning at 7:00 am. Now I am going to go and return them. Should this be a problem to return unopened cheeses??

If so, they are part of Novartis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novartis).

I will try to add their contact info to the contact list as soon as someone confirms that it is this 'Gerber' that we are talking about.

........................................

Would anyone like to write a sample complaint letter about this that we can all send out to all of these adresses? Lets let them have some full mailboxes on Monday morning so that they can have a long hard thought about what they are doing here.

I added the new contacts. Again, anyone with a post in the first page should copy and past this into their post so more people can see it.

I don't know if this matters, but a few people asked me to share the email I received from the company:

Subject: RE: Emmi Promotion with American Airlines

Dear rrgg,

Thank you for contacting EMMI USA regarding our American Airlines Promotion. Since you are purchasing each product along with the individual code, there is no limit to the number of codes you can redeem.

Enjoy our cheese...

Sincerely,
Daniel Schnyder

Hi,

I saw that Swiss Knight Fondue and Snack Wedges contain a code for bonus miles with American Airlines. Could you please tell me if there is a limit to the number of codes I can redeem?

Thank you!

Sincerely,
rrgg

This could be good news for us as they might not want any public relations problems that might tarnish their image.

If you have any Cheese Wheel.. Then please check the package.. It clearly says,, Swiss Knight by Gerber....

Its written in such a big font, u can't miss that..

Just FYI

I don't think you can; but use this (http://base.google.com/base/help/about.html?hl=en_US) and then post the link

Thanks :-:

Maybe it is good that they did this on a Friday afternoon (sneaky B$#tards), so that we have the weekend to organize.
