Threatening for refunds, spamming their support line inboxes with ire and threats because of the typos or because things aren't shipping out fast enough...
Times like these I feel bad for FF14/SE. Even if I didn't have the lore book right now, I'd still be cringing. Some of it has just gotten disgusting and it's sad how many people seem okay with it.
I myself am not exactly spamming and making silly threats, but a store is a 100% customer-focused enterprise. I don't have the right to threaten them, no, but I do have the right to ask for a refund if I do not receive something as advertised. I understand the SE store is a boutique and not an Amazon-style warehouse, but not accounting for this volume of interest is not my problem, but theirs.Â
I'll still be paying the base price of the book, of course, but I will request that the delivery charge be refunded, or alternatively I pay for the speed of the shipping I received.
