 Today, I went to WFM to return two boxes of rotten "Green Beans with Almonds" that were part of the "Turkey Dinner for 8" I had purchased. The customer service lady told me to go to cash-register 6 and wait there for her. I waited for about 10 minutes and she never came. Then I went over to another aisle and asked if they did returns there. They pointed me back to customer service, and the lady who had told me to go to 6 in the first place acted like she had done nothing wrong. I am never shopping at WFM again.

Let me preface this review by saying that I'm a Nintendo and Zelda fan. I have played all the Zelda games except for the CD-i games, and have beaten "Ocarina of Time", "Wind Waker" and "Twilight Princess". When 3DS was released in North America, I did not get it on day one, but I did get it on day three, and when "Ocarina of Time 3D" was released, I beat it three times, one for each save file you get. I had to delete a save file to play it a fourth time. You are probably thinking that a main-series, console Zelda release can never be less than gaming perfection.

If you have not played this game, you have no idea how terrible it is, so before

Newegg's customer-service, or at least its chat system, is so bad. Twice, I have chatted online with them, and both times, they have not even remotely solved my problems. They just spit out stock answers that they cut and paste from a database. It is really shameful. Their video-games division is beyond awful. I am never pre-ordering from them again. They did not have stock of a game I pre-ordered two months in advance. That is shameful as well.
