Free L4D DLC Anyone?

Let me explain.

After waiting up so patiently for this mornings release of the new campaign Crash Course DLC Add-on for Left 4 Dead, I was only shocked to realize it was 240 MSP over-priced. It released at 800 MSP, when it was stated several times that it was to be released at 560 MSP. I waited probably close to an hour before I decided to purchase it as over-priced; I was very eager and anxious to play it.

Omega and I went through the campaign several times, enjoying it fairly well. At first we thought it was going to be quick since it only had two chapters, but it took around 30 minutes to complete (on easy). I don't really enjoy the multiplayer portion of L4D, I'm more of a Co-Op guy; but I was actually enjoying the multiplayer portion, while going for the new achievements, at the same time.

After we finished up I decided to call Microsoft for a refund of the 240 MSP, because it was then lowered from 800 to 560. I talked to a total of three people, all very nice, but the call was quite long. I eventually talked to a guy who had the authority to refund MSP, and he told me that he understood the situation and was going to refund me my points. I got off the phone and noticed he refunded me an full 800 MSP, not the 240 MSP. So, I basically got the L4D DLC free for purchasing it early; I'm cool with free stuff. =)
