Seeedstudio Issues Part II (Resolved!!)
The issues have been resolved.
It did take some back and forth with Eric (the owner of seeedstudio) over email. Eric tried to help me through various options that would let me salvage the anode LEDs, but all the ideas we put together would cost me additional money and take up more space in my eventual design. Eric finally conceded that cathode LEDs would be the right way to go and then we went through arrangements for them to send me the cathode LEDs over. Initally they wanted me to pay for the new LEDs, but I stayed strong to my arguement that the mistake was their fault and Eric finally did concede.
Altogether the back and forth of emails took about 2 days, and the LEDs came in today (18 days later) at the cost of seeedstudio. Through out the process Eric was extremely polite, and replied promptly to my emails.
Thanks seeedstudio!!
