Trip to Best Buy to obtain correct version the good old-fashioned way: Check. (And note: The correct version was in fact the ONLY version they had for sale. Even Best Buy knows.)
Get some caffeine into my system so I can be just pissed-off customer rather than crazy-mad, if-you-weren't-just-a-PO-Box-number-I'd-be-tempted-to-march-into-your-store-with-a-gun, pissed-off customer: Check.
Place phonecall to seller for a proper ass-reaming: ...not exactly. I got instead an answering machine. Second try same thing. So THIS is the game they want to play? Very well.
Send not nearly as irate but still perfectly clear that I am not to be fucked with email: Check. vis a vis:
Yes, I am oftentimes more talk than action. But they still dodged a bullet by not answering the phone.
I also think it is quite telling that I bemoaned having to pay full price for a 6-year-old, foreign, subtitled movie, but then found myself shortly thereafter browsing ridiculously overpriced mp3 players that I certainly don't need. I was merely testing my willpower. Yeah, that was it. (my, but they are sexy though.)

This is the second time I have gone through this with you. I also ordered this title through your Amazon site, and I noticed that the address matched on both packages. I specifically asked you if this was the Run Lola Run with audio commentary and you said yes. It is not. I appreciate you refunding me when I return it, however, I'm not sure if the refund includes shipping charges. I've paid now twice for you to ship me the wrong item and have nothing to show for it. Not my fault, your mistake, I don't feel I should have to pay shipping. Please get back to me on this.
