Dreamcast @ Amazon.com ***** DEAD *****

[Kenji4861]

... Can't believe I missed this. The only day I slept early, this happens. Does anyone want to sell me one? E-mail me at kenji4861@hotmail.com Thanks!

 

[KamakaziRcr]

It's really pathetic how people beg others to sell them one. Do you really think they'll sell it to you for under $50? You snooze you loose...hehehehe

 

[Kenji4861]

:|rrrrrr

 

[bonk102]

mine says in stock and ready to ship, let's hope

 

[RichieZ]

Is anyone able to check order status? I get some maintance junk

 

[helpme]

yeah, can't check

 

[amb#cog]

KamakaziRcr: No doubt man??? Yea like I'm gonna float this on my card, spend the time/gas/money/shipping materials to ship it. For "i was hoping to pay around $25".

Keep hoping pal. :|

If I get my 3. They'll all be sold at a fair price, but not no lousy $25. Why should I waste my time? I paid $130 for my DC already anyway. These will go cheap, but $25? C'mon man give me a break.

I'm a busy/in debt man. Why on earth would someone sell one of these that cheap? How about $50-$75 + shipping? Now that seems more fair to me.

These (DC's) do rule BTW.

Me crosses fingers.

BTW I got the "shipping soon Estimated Delivery: February 26 - March 2" thing, but now the tracking feature isn't working???

changed from my previous post..

 

[mckeller]

Just checked my status. Earlier today it said ready to ship and my cc was billed. Now it says not yet shipped and my cc was refunded the total amount. It does not look good.

 

[Blur]

If anyone gets an extra one that they want to sell, PM or mail me with your asking price.

thanks

 

[mosdef]

Uh uncJIGGA's a hypocrite. Why does he call Amazon to notify them of the error, and then ask where he can download ROMs?

-mosdef

 

[Eminem69]

[SLEEPER5555]

damn i think you need to chill, dont be bitter cause you were sleeping, and no profanity ok!


and my status says "Open order -- being processed" what the hell is that?

 

[KaptHook]

Damnit.. this will end up being one of the deals of 2001 and I missed out on it :frown:

 

[supadeals]

They are slowly cancelling orders just like they cancelled mine.

 

[RichieZ]

hehe mosdef I was joking in both instances. The only time I'll call a CSR is if somehow my order was cancelled/refunded. I'm hoping to get a nice set of speaks with the profits from one DC and this extra set of ACS-48s I have.

UPDATE: Crap! I've been hit by the dreaded "refund". Time to call a CSR!

 

[oLLie]

I wanna buy a DC from one of you leet-deal jumpers. As long as it's reasonable though since i can get a DC and keyboard from under $90 at target.

THey're trying to buy me off with a lousy $10 GC. WTF?!?

I demand satisfaction!! I want my 50 dreamcasts!!

 

[aCiDReflux]

ok got the dreaded refund. Actually got two of them, don't know why but I did. Anyway called a csr and got transfered to an order specialist. She basically said that she didn't know why but usually they send refunds when a shipment doesn't come in right so that no interest is garnered on an account until they actually ship. Which I don't believe it is in this case. Seems like it is a stall tactic to me. She said that there was a lisitng problem with the dreamcast and an email would be going out to all the people who ordered one. So, I didn't want to push it. I was all calm about it. SO, I guess just wait on the email... sigh and I was going to enjoy my dc.

 

[RichieZ]

BASTARDS! I got that same e-mail too! Its time for PR HELL, DAMN YOU AMAZON. The least you could have done is made it a non-promo GC, promos are useless! ARRGHHH

 

[helpme]

DAMN.

 

[aCiDReflux]

oh hell in my haste i misread. my bad.
