I'm sure others think the same thing. Sure they didn't have to give you $30 back, but because they did, they likely bought themselves some new business. They'll probably find that the $30 was very well spent. And now that I read this, I will consider doing business with them in the future. I’m sure others think the same thing.

(And yes, I realize that their products aren't cheap, but it's one of my indulgences.) But when I encountered issues with one of the fragrances, Tom's stood by their refund policy and sent me a check (including tax) with a generous sample of soap. But unfortunately, they misspelled my name on the check. I called after hours and left a voicemail, half expecting a non-response. The next morning I received a voicemail from them apologizing for the mistake and an assurance that a new check was in the mail. It arrived a few days later. They were friendly and polite throughout the process and apologized when the mistake arose. I miss customer service like this! I had a similar experience with Tom’s of Maine.

If only more companies put their customers in a higher priority. Cheers to SmugMug. Isn’t it nice when something like this happens? If only more companies put their customers in a higher priority.
