After a new heart rate monitor and added a Polar one to my basket on Amazon. Forgot that I have Amazon Prime and the thing went straight through and was "Dispatching Soon" instantly. Which would be great, except I searched for a bit more information on the damn thing and I'm pretty sure I've ordered the women's version.

Does it say that on their website? Noooo, in fact the only thing that dropped the hint to me was when I zoomed in on the image and the decoration on the outside turned out to be flowers. Searching for Polar and "Black Diamond" confirms the embarrassment.

Stupid ****ing Amazon and equally ****ing stupid Polar for shipping the men's and women's versions under the same model number.

Surely there's a cancel option on there, no?

And nothing to do with User Error?

Silly old Hector.

With Amazon Prime it leaps straight into the packing process, no opportunity to cancel. I tried after about 3 minutes when I realised the mistake.
