1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo for $95 *Dead*

Nevermind, we probably will be delayed until June. I was browsing the accessory portion of the website, looking for something to spend my $75 coupon on (preferably a 512MB pro duo stick), and noticed that the 512MB one had a 3+ week backorder. Our 1GB sticks aren't even listed. We're going to be in for one hell of a wait. When they send me a delayed again email on the 9th, I'll see if I can rustle anything else out of them.

Good prediction man, my order is now delayed till June 15th. And to think I was feeling all optimistic about getting one soon, pffft wth was I thinking?


 
Yep, my order just got delayed until 6/15/05 as well. Has anyone else noticed that other accessories for the Sony PSP are all scarce as well (at least in my area). Screen protectors, cases, etc. are all back ordered. Pretty frustrating.
 
Just got the same notification. Is anyone going to keep there order or cancel ? I guess I'll just keep it untill something else comes along I guess.

Maybe theres a good deal on a 512 in the meantime.
 
Gaaaaaah. They canceled my order without any warning. I sent them an email asking why, and they called me over the phone and said because I didn't respond to their phone call that I never got stating that it would be backordered until June, they canceled my order. They told me on the phone that they could not reactivate my order, and there were no other alternative ones I could go with. They also told me I would not be able to use my $75 off concession coupon (bwahahha, got a Logitech X530 5.1 speaker set two weeks ago for $4 with it).

Oh well 🙁
 
Same thing happened to me, Avalon. I received the email at 11:42 AM and had until 7:00 PM to respond. I was returning from a weekend vacation, so didn't even look at the email until the next morning. Brutal (lack of) customer service.
 
Same here.
I can't believe this is the worst service I've ever experienced!!!

Dell's PCs suck and their customer service is even worser!!!

I've spent $59bux for the psp, and $54 for the 1gig card @ amazon, and free game rentals @ blockbuster.
-it wasn't easy, but with tax included I just broke the 100 mark on my psp expense.
& with the Pelican lid on it, I feel pretty good about keeping the screen clean.
on the cheap, this systems's not bad.
the DS is what I seem to be paying full price on for just about everything....

That's what I'm doing. I'm not in a hurry to get one so I'll keep consenting to it. I'll cancel if I see something better come along.
 
Yep, my order backed to 7/29.... this is stupid. FIVE frikking months and chances are, it's going to take longer still. I've talked with CSR's and they keep telling me that there is none available from the manufacturer. I tell them that is bullsh$t cause I can walk into any Circuit City, Bestbuy, Office max or whatever and buy this very same item from MULTIPLE brands.

I asked they substitute another brand or hell, give me 6 of the 512 MB or SOMETHING to make right because 5 months is intolerable. They say the pricing isn't the same so they can't do it. I tell them that is what a LEGAL substitution is. If you offer a product at a certain price and can't make good on that product you have to offer another product of equal or GREATER quality for that price.
 
July? Jesus. I'm kinda glad my order did get canceled, then. There's got to be some pro duo in stock elsewhere by now?

*Edit*
Seems this place has them in stock.
Here.
$102 for a gig...not as good as Dell, but it may save you from waiting on backorders.
