<sigh> I don't get the trolling accusation. The OP was disappointed with his purchase. I would have been, too, especially on such a large order of yeast. Perfectly reasonable. I probably would have sent it back, but asking for a partial refund because a good portion of it would "expire" or pass its sell-by date before any reasonable expectation of use is also a valid request. Yes, I know dry yeast can remain viable for a long time. That's beside the point. While Williams did nothing wrong they also missed a chance to go above and beyond.
Posting this experience was also perfectly reasonable. There are threads here every day about experiences with vendors, both positive and negative. Given the number of online vendors now available, and the great lengths many of them will go to to satisfy a customer, knowing how this turned out (whether you agree with the OP or not) helps everybody figure out where they want to spend their money.
