The follow up email:

"Hello,

I'm so sorry to hear about the experience you had when you contacted us. I'll be sure to pass your comments along to the appropriate people on our Customer Service team.

I checked your cart and see that the AMD CPU Fan Bracket Base for AM3 socket is an add on item.

If you want to include Add-on items to your order, or buy only Add-on items, the order will need to add up to at least $25.

In this case, I've made an exception to our standard procedure and would like you add an extra item that makes order total equal to $25.00 or more than $25.00 so that we will issue refund for the extra item cost.

I recommend you to add the extra item directly with Amazon.com or Fulfilled by Amazon (Not with other Amazon sellers) with your items in your cart and place the order. Once you placed the order, please write back us with the order number so that we will refund you the extra item cost.

Please visit the following link to provide the information we requested"

Seriously.. I emailed back to tell them I plan to forgo Amazon in the future only to get a message that they don’t receive replies.
