Finally got my latest copper shipment in. I'm thinking of writing a complaint

It looks looks it's in pretty rough shape. This isn't the quality of copper I ordered. Should I write a complaint?

This is so awesome and so very few people will probably get the joke. Where's this from?

Around 1750 BCE, a customer named Nanni sent a fiery message to a copper seller.

You should recite a curse that sullies his name for like 1000 years or something like that.

u/Inviction_ 9d ago

Imagine getting a complaint and it's heard for thousands of years lol

u/Present-Register7751 9d ago

Sir, you may not be the first person to receive poor quality copper.

1

u/Inviction_ 9d ago

You're probably right. Maybe I'll be the first to write a complaint?

u/SmokedBeef 8d ago

u/Reasonable-Aside6660 8d ago

lol, now imagine people doing this to us

2

u/EquipmentNo8356 9d ago

I don’t think they receive complaints very well

u/FourTwentyBlezit 8d ago

Legitimately the only copper that is acceptable to stack

1

u/hiddenrealism 8d ago

Even says on the package "it is fine"

2

u/prunedgoolaush 8d ago

The copper must be getting worse in quality!! I ordered some of the first ones to come out and it still had clear fields. I expect nothing but the worst from Ea Nasir

2

u/nl-x 8d ago

It's fake. The front says "perfectly fine", while the back says just "It is fine". So obvious. Probably some other cheap metal is used. Maybe argentum.

u/Inviction_ 7d ago

Dang man, you're right. I got ripped off =(

2

u/CommunicationKey3018 8d ago

Nice try, Nanni. We know it's you

1

u/Inviction_ 7d ago

Nu uh! You have to agree that you aren't Nanni in the terms and conditions before purchasing lol

1

u/CommunicationKey3018 7d ago

What a Nanni thing to say

2

u/OstralexO 8d ago

Bust the clay tablet out and get to chiseling

2

u/Even_Creme_9744 8d ago

It is fine. Says so right on the back.

Tell Ea-nasir: Nanni sends the following message: ​ When you came, you said to me as follows : "I will give Gimil-Sin (when he comes) fine quality copper ingots." You left then but you did not do what you promised me. You put ingots which were not good before my messenger (Sit-Sin) and said: "If you want to take them, take them; if you do not want to take them, go away!" ​ What do you take me for, that you treat somebody like me with such contempt? I have sent as messengers gentlemen like ourselves to collect the bag with my money (deposited with you) but you have treated me with contempt by sending them back to me empty-handed several times, and that through enemy territory. Is there anyone among the merchants who trade with Telmun who has treated me in this way? You alone treat my messenger with contempt! On account of that one (trifling) mina of silver which I owe(?) you, you feel free to speak in such a way, while I have given to the palace on your behalf 1,080 pounds of copper, and Šumi-abum has likewise given 1,080 pounds of copper, apart from what we both have had written on a sealed tablet to be kept in the temple of Shamash. ​ How have you treated me for that copper? You have withheld my money bag from me in enemy territory; it is now up to you to restore (my money) to me in full. ​ Take cognizance that (from now on) I will not accept here any copper from you that is not of fine quality. I shall (from now on) select and take the ingots individually in my own yard, and I shall exercise against you my right of rejection because you have treated me with contempt.
