    I made an order for 10 books, I made a mistake and put 2 on Hedge Hunters instead of one. I found out later and wasnt able to change. I shoot amazon an email and the person said

    "I attempted to cancel your extra book 'Hedge Hunters: Hedge Fund Masters on the Rewards, the Risk, and the Reckoning ', but I wasn't able to because it's entered the shipping process. It's expected to arrive between December 5, 2008 - December 17, 2008.

    As the cost of return shipping is too expensive in this case, there is no need to return the extra book,you can keep it as a gift from Amazon.com.

    I have requested a refund for the item, including associated shipping costs. This refund should go through within the next few days and will appear as a credit of $18.75 on your next credit card billing statement."

    And I shop at amazon like three times a year
