HEY ERICK,

Because it sounded like a great deal. Little did I know that VW would send
me coupons (with my local dealer's name on, but mailed by VW) that blew the
club's discount away. What I did know up front though was that since my car
was brand new and VW's accessories are grossly overpriced anyway, I
wouldn't be using the  discount anyway. Anyway, I gave the shirt away and
used the calling card so nix the refund. My post was just to make others
aware. If I had known this, I wouldn't have joined.....  comprende?
