Rant about stupid sellers on Amazon

Dear Diary,
Okay, I don't usually rant, but I'm so goddamn frustrated right now.
So, I think I mentioned before that I'm getting into (or want to get into) ROM/ROM playing, right? Okay, so I ordered an SNES controller for my laptop and waited eagerly for it to arrive. When the package arrived, I was so excited. Oh, but guess what? They mixed up my order and sent me an SNES controller with a regular adapter. I guess I could say I was kind of upset.
So I emailed the seller, and they were very courteous, they apologized and said they would send me the correct item. So, I started the waiting game again. When that package arrived, I was even more excited. Finally, it was here, and I could play some good old Super Mario World! Heck, they couldn't mess up the order a second time, could they?
Boy, was I WRONG. They certainly could. I received the same item as last time. So, extremely irritated and frustrated after having a terrible day that day, I went to weapons class and ended up calling the seller the next day. The person who answered my call was extremely nice and apologetic, and said she would send me the correct item right away, and she told me I could keep the two previous controllers I had been sent, and could do with them whatever I wanted. So, happy with the thought that they would get it right this time, and I only had to wait 4-6 more days for the new item to arrive, I was contented to wait.
Well, until yesterday, that is, when I was expecting another parcel in the mail that day. I was slightly disappointed, but remembered that it might come today, too. So I contacted the seller, and they gave me the tracking number. I tried it out, only to find there wasn't any info on it, or it wasn't activated yet. I was a little confused, but thought it might be a glitch. Today, I again was expecting a parcel in the mail, but it still hadn't arrived. Well, I told myself, it'll come tomorrow, and maybe we can pick it up at the post office before we leave for Madison. I talked to my parents, and they weren't sure what we could do. So, I checked the tracking number again, and guess what I found? There was some information! Oh, but wait, it was stuff like, "processed at origin facility" and "electronic shipping info received". Anyone care to guess what the date on all this was? November 20th. Yep. I'm sure that pretty much sums everything up. I cried I was so frustrated.
*sigh* Well, I guess I get to wait until Sunday now. Yipee! Not much I can do, unfortunately, except give the seller the feedback they deserve, and believe me, they are going to get it. And if they mess up the order a third time, I'll... I think I might break something.
Sorry about this, and Happy Thanksgiving to all you Americans!
